Forum Style Updates

We've had a new look on the front page for quite awhile, it's more than time for the forums to catch up. However, I'm not genius with photoshop. So here's what I did today. Today I turned off the override for styles - so if you haven't picked a style for the forum yet - you may be back to a default 'subSilver' style.

In your profile, you can select a few other styles to view. PW_RedStyle is the previous style version.

PW_Style is what will slowly become the new style, one that will hopefully be easier to read and generally match planewalker as a whole.

Over all, if you'll let me know what you think, this is my first time playing with something like this - also if any of you happen to be good at creating phpbb styles and templates - let me know as well! I could use some advice!

To tell you the truth this new style screws with my light sensitive eyes lol... but I can't complain... I like the layout and everything, I just thing that the white should be toned down to maybe a- um... light grey?

hmmm, well it seems to be only the forum- I think it's becuase the forum is dominantly white, but the site itself has that sort of cream-green color in the background (err large borders atleast) as well- that doesn't make the white so harsh... although Fridrikon likes it lol

I might at that, though this is the same white that's on the pages of planewalker. Do you have the same trouble there or is it just a forum trouble?

Since the feedback that we've gotten seems mostly positive - we've switched over entirely to the new style.

Then why does the profile screen give you 3 styles to choose from?

Beats me. You'd think the coders for phpbb would have taken that into acocunt.
