Green is cool 
Posted by: CptTripps May 26 2005, 12:06 PM
I dig it..in fact, I think I want to make my next 914 the color of the one up top.
Can I get the paint code for that???

I like the new logo. The old one always confused me because of the way one of the letters made it look like there was no tire on the rim.

I like the green, it's a nice change. Leave it for a while.

green on a car is fine... green on the screen:

I think it should be Red White and Blue for the next 30 days. Just a thought.

It's not easy being green...
I like it! It matches my eyes

I dont like the green anymore either.
How about yellow.

This forum software supports multiple skins and the ability for each user to choose their favorite via the control panel. Instead of globally replacing the skin, why not keep them all (and add new ones) so people can choose their favorite skin?

Holy Crap! I can't see that. YELLOW'S OUT!!!

I liked the orange MUCH better.

The banner colors and title text colors are easily changeable with code but the pictures have to be made manually with Photoshop. That's a project.
Remember the original source pic which became the mean greenie? I think that was the mad germans creation (Sir Andy). Nice work.
How about people submit their best Photoshop work for display at the top of the home page. Of course of their 914's.... No boobies. Well, maybe just a few....

No way, people might confuse this with a french 914 club.

I think its time to feature Rusty's Aubergine 914 now. A nice aubergine background would look cool!

I love the green teener, but man, at this point, Sahara Sand would be a welcome sight.

I think we should let Zoey pick, since it's her dad that has to spend the time changing the color.
FWIW, I don't have a particular fondness for the green, but it seems to me it takes a bit of work to do this, we should at least stick with it for 2-3mos before changing it. The color change shouldn't be a flavor of the month thing, unless they change the format so it's easier to reprogram.

Maybe an Admin can comment... Has the board been customized too far out of the box to use the built in "skins" functionality? (My Controls > Options/Skin and Languages > Board Skin...)
I don't want color of the month either, but it would be cool if we could choose from the skins that have already been built. I'm not suggesting the admins go through a bunch of work... just wondering if the previous designs can be left on the options list.
Posted by: Bleyseng May 26 2005, 05:52 PM
yeah, lets have Zoey pick as any 4 year old can pick a color better than Miles can. I can see Dutch Orange in the near future...... 
Posted by: redshift May 26 2005, 05:55 PM
I challenge Zoey to a color picking contest! I can discern very subtle shade differences, and I can also spell long words.
Bring it on, Zoey!

color of the month. Excellent idea! And each monthly color should follow the 914 factory paint chart!

Quit whining everyone. I don't like change. If it was good enough............

| That yellow script was a favorite trick on the 914 chat room, ever once in a while someone (I can't remember who) would do that and blind everyone. It's much worse when yer starrin at a puter screen in the dark. Iffn I remember right, JP really enjoyed it when someone did that. |

Great idea! I like it!
But when it's yellow, will all the downloads be faster?
