Looks quite nice in my opinion :)

Just two mini complaints - could we have it made a bit fatter please?

And will the colourscheme be changed to match the rest of illarion?

Once someone makes a fitting template, we will use it :)
Nitram is working on one, if someone wants to take over his work as he he obviously busy with other things right now, please do contact him.
Also the forums might be a bit slower than usual right now, since there are still some administrative tasks running in the background.

Once Vilarion gives me the required access rights I can improve the width of the forum. The design in general won't change for now since this would require a lot of work I can't do right now.

I think on one hand the board is successful because it will encourage people to go in game more rather than lurk on the forums. But how do you get back to the Illarion homepage from the forums?

My vote would go back to the dark background / light letters. This way all those cool colors we like to use in RP posts are not terrorizing us.
Like these: blah blah blah and blah

Wow, those first two are awful. I second this.

Anyway..I love the new layout, not a fan of the color scheme. But then again, I wasn't too happy with the color scheme last time we switched either.

One day we will have a color scheme that fits the homepage perfectly. For now we shall go on with this one.

Just use darker colors until then.

Highlight the text to read it until then, then if you look at the posts in the future they won't be hard to read.

Or.. just use the default colour?

You can always get https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9408/ if using firefox... it helps with other forums also.Just takes a click of a button on your bar.

Meh, personally I don't like the new forum. Maybe I just don't like change. Things are definitely easier to read with the new colour scheme :) , but my avatar looked cooler against the dark background :cry: .

Give me some time, I'll get used to it. :wink:

Those bots have been on all day. How does one quote some one else in this forum?

Like this. There is a Quote-button, look at the right hand bottom of a post.

So what about getting back to the homepage after visiting the forums? Or is that just fail?
