New Forum Snag and Wish List Thread

Mucho Gracias folks for a stellar job well done!

I wanted to wish that the white background be toned down a wee bit by using 5% grey so that it may not be so painful to read but realise that I could dim my screen.

Cheers
 
If you ever manage to work out why accessing the forums through my work firewall screws up the "New posts" feature it would be great:-

In short - if the forum index shows three sequential threads with the "New" icon, and I cick on the middle one to read new posts, when I come back to the index the "New" icons on the other two threads have gone so I cant jump straight to the latest posts without guessing which page it was up to last time.

I've lived with it the last few years, so its not critical ... just odd 😛

The gold looks nice but I find it a bit faint for easy reading - not enough contrast with a white background.

whats with the gold here n gold there.. it looks orange from where I am sitting 😉

re banner... I will see if I can come up with something better to fit the theme over the weekend, I will be able to spend more time coming up with something half decent.

Sunny what do the others I did look like with this theme.. ?

If that's done, the gold/orange print will definitely need to be made darker or change colour altogether.

Not as good due to the white outlines but going to have a play with them later on. The images that is.

I know what you mean. The background of the header is a fixed size without some major pissing about. If I stretch the image it will look shite. We'd need a new logo essentially. Will look into it but it may take a while.

I modified the sprite and changed the CSS in firebug and it looks like this:

Still not great, but better?

That is much better.
 
Not enough red now for a lfc forum with the banner change, which looks great btw.. try this for the backdrop, should compensate for it

backdropu.png


rename to backdrop.png and drop it the image/theme folder
 
Use this one.. if you can, blended the red better, previous one slightly glitchy..

backdropa.png


also the username fonts colour needs changing to match the new gold font...

No doesn't stretch it has to merge with the overall background. What do you think (ctrl+F5 may be needed) ?
 
looks better, although red might be a bit bright at the bottom.. hang on will tweak a little.. try and get it same colour as the title bars..
