Please change forum style or colors

As the title says I'ld appreciate it if you could change the forum style or at least the colors!

I can't even read the dark red on black background on my CRT screen.

if its going to be changed the old one should be left as an option
I love black backgrounds in forums

I don't care if the background is white, grey or black. But if the background is dark you should brighten up the font IMHO.

I see fine but u are right it wont hurt anybody if they brighten it up for the people with darker monitors

I like the style the forum has now.

brighten up the font not the background : )

keep it as is, majority wins

Hey, we're working on it... well, BTB is.

Yeah I would like a variety choice of colours to "brighten" up the forum a bit xD.
It would give a nice touchy feel to the forums .

yes,, i think the previous style is better.. they change white color with red color for read thread [i think they changed it today or yesterday]

Good point Captain, I remember I could read fine the day before yesterday but couldn't remember how it has been before.

BTB changed it yesterday by request.

just keep it the way it was, or brighten the red

I'm not particularly fond of the dark red either.

I changed it to make it a little brighter...but not too bright. Let me know what you guys think.

I'm trying to see if I can make the active links bolded and "read" link unbolded so they can both just be the same color but I don't see that as an option yet.

It could be a bit brighter but it's much better than before. Thanks, Lumi. :)

lol

Yup.

I changed it.

Problem being, links don't seem to go to "clicked" status on my browser(s)!

Whether I've clicked them before or not, they stay yellow.

So I couldn't see how the red looked. I was planning to change it to a darker yellow but if everyone is OK with the red now that Lumi has adujsted it .... we'll leave it like that.

i like the red......

it kinda says "yeah you are about to click me"

lol, I had the same in mind about a darker yellow. Playing with it right now so you guys might see a couple color changes in the next few minutes.

nice make it rainbow

Like the change
And if you will entertain one more request. Please change the little ORANGE message box for chat. Orange does not go well with any color text.

Ok, back to red for the time being. The other color didn't work out too well imo.

Would you guys prefer if the link and visited link were just the same color? Having two contrasting link colors still look a little awkward to me.

@Subman(R): Will look into it.

My Gratitude.

lol ... they already are for me!

Must be something in the way I have my internet set up. (no history stored I suspect)

I like the brighter red for hover-over though ....

Subman ..... do you mean the quick-reply box?

I hope no, I actually like the orange.
