In appreciation of the kindness shown to me, I really pushed to get the complete 914 Color skin set done that was promised a while ago. I took the time to create an automated process for this. So after a bunch of work, I can now create new skin colors in a matter of minutes. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif)

But before I go through the whole process of making 30 or so colors, I thought we should test one of the new skins first. So, in the bottom left hand corner of this page there is a pop-up menu. Choosing Olympic Blue will bring you into the new skin, but you may need to reload the page a few times or clear your cache to see the color change. You can post here any reviews, comments, and errors.

ENJOY! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

While I do appreciate your efforts, I still like the "buttons" with the Gemini Blue and the Willow Green.

Just a personal preference.

I though I would comment.

Thanks Mark. I found this option last week and converted to blue. It's great to be able to change the colors on personal demand.

Thanks again for continuing to make this a great site to visit.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

one thing i noticed on the blue skin:

on the main forum page, with the light blue background, it's now really hard to distinguish between which posts are new and which posts are already read.

i'm guessing it has to do with the fact that both "envelop" icons are blue as well.

you might want to think about a new colorset for the envelop icons for each skin as well ...


looking good otherwise!

Mark,

I think the new skin is great. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif)

One suggestion: look at the beta for the Guards Red skin... see how the color code is actually listed in the topic bar?

Can we add that? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

oh, one more thing ... can we space out the buttons for "delete/edit/quote/reply" and "on/card/pm" and "fast reply/add reply/new thread" a bit more?

now that they're smaller, they're kind of easy to miss so close together.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) Andy

PS: all you need to do is add some "empty" pixels on each side. 2 per button on the left and right would probably be enough ...

PPS: also, it seems that the blue squares under the members title (and the warning level) have a gray border. that looks kinda odd ...

BTW, when you click on the 914 info page, it stays green.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Again, thanks for all of the work and effort it takes to keep this site exciting...

Rob, yeah, that's a larger issue. The skins only apply to the forum software. All the other site pages aren't skinnable.... yet.

Very Nice Work - but I am trying to understand why anyone would want anything other than Willow Green............. but maybe that is just me and my '72 Willow Green 914......

Thanks!
