Ok...

I was just noticed that the posts alternate color in a thread. SO... Which color do you like to see your posts better on?

The lighter gray
OR
The darker gray

You just noticed that? I knew that for a long time... I'm voting "light gray" since it's obvious those who post in light gray are smarter :D

Darker all the way!

I'm use to this color in Rhino (3d modeling software), and a black bg in AutoCad...

I like the lighter grey.. the darker grey is closer to the black font color... which is more intimidating =\ lol

You guys don't like? I was just about to set this as the new color scheme site-wide. Either this or lime greens & purples.

This is definitely not my style, and is frowned upon by the "big whigs" on this forum, but:

I also noticed that there were no emoticons in Brandon's last post. Therefore I am somewhat worried.

I second... I promise not to make any stupid comments on the superiority of light gray backgrounds, so long as we don't have to deal with this...

The colors in this thread don't seem to be alternating light and dark.

kristen

02-05-2003, 21:47

I definitly think that this should be made the site-wide color scheme :-D

Exactly, my friend. Thanks to our illustrious webmaster, the colors are as you see here, not light and dark as originally intended.

That would just be... evil. Instead do it for a week that way pretty much every CD surfer would see it vs if some of them only check every other day or so.

Bah! I hate this scheme. There is way too much contrast between the two... on the dark orange, white text would show up easier, and on the light orange, black text is better. This amount of contrast really hurts one's eyes after a while.

In the immortal words of Ren and Stimpy, "No sir, I don't like it."

you could always make the background a really ugly hawiian print, and have each a different hawiian print :p

If it were as easy as changing the colors, I'd do it (for this thread only, of course), but it'd take too much time and effort.

I hope a few of you guys above understand that this was just a joke and I was only kidding when I said the site would change colors. :p
