Changing Forum background colors

kdo2milger · 08-10-2009, 01:48 PM

I was wondering if we could have the option to change our background colors to say maybe that of the 370z colors, or something to that effect

I am able to pick different backgrounds in other forums and I think it would be a nice way to add a personal touch

I am on here quit a bit and the grey background is starting to get to me

armensti · 08-11-2009, 02:11 AM

i would say an all black background with white writing or red

Meh... I can't read anything off of an all black background.

nogoodname · 08-11-2009, 08:28 AM

Gun metal background?

m4a1mustang · 08-11-2009, 08:28 AM

I like light colored backgrounds... like this soft white / light gray.

nogoodname · 08-11-2009, 08:31 AM

I'm not sure if we will ever offer ALL the 370Z colors as themes since it's a PITA. But I'm sure we will have limited selectable skins at the bottom of the page in near future. One reason I don't like fancy skin is because it makes the forum run slower/more prone to errors. . Also, sometimes I go to various forums and their color scheme is so flashy/odd, I leave with my eyes burning. Stock VB skin is the best IMO (the one we currently have) . Still, I will see what I can do.

Majority of the websites on the internet uses either white or gray background. Therefore, I chose to use that as our background. Our forum background color is VERY close to the gray Nissan USA uses in their website www.nissanusa.com.

Present color scheme is VERY easy on the eyes, especially if you spend a lot of time in here reading
