Potential new colour scheme
As StC has just turned three, and we've had this colour scheme since it was about three months old with only one minor change (we went from a blue header background to red), I'm starting to think that we are in need of a fresh look. Sometimes a change is as good as a rest, after all, and I think a new look (colour-wise, I am not touching the actual layout or anything else) might help us feel less 'bored' with the game as a whole and bring some new life in.
Therefore, I have been playing around with things and have come up with a green/blue look.
Please take a look at the previews below and tell me what you think (yes, I know it's a totally different look!). Thumbnails are clickable - and there is no banner as yet for this scheme. If you all hate it, I'd rather not spend more time working on something that'll never see the light of day! Also, the reason that the Cbox in the preview is the current colours is simply because I can't do with the Cbox what I can for the site: experiment with a new look and colours, without it going live. Any changes to the Cbox would show on the actual forum - and you don't want a blue and green Cbox suddenly showing, do you?
This is a preview of the index page - the Suggestions area is highlighted to show the mouse-over colour:

Re: Potential new colour scheme
Also. I have got the current scheme saved - just because I would like to change doesn't mean that we can't go back to this current colour set in the future.

Re: Potential new colour scheme
But, I like the warm colours of this one better. It gives it such a warm and welcoming feel as opposed to all/most other boards which usually go for 'colder' and darker colours!
Re: Potential new colour scheme
These new colors are nice. I like the old banner better though.

Re: Potential new colour scheme
I don't know if it would go with the new colours. But yeah, I like it too - Keiju's much better at banner-making than I am.
But if you'd like to make one, you're welcome to - you're better at graphics than I am, too. And it doesn't have to be me or Keiju who do the forum banner.
