Since there's no suggestion forum that I'm aware of I'm throwing this up here. What would be the possibility of Suikox switching over to a wintery theme for the holidays? If most people here are anything like me blue on black gets old after a while. On the other forums I visit that have multiple layouts available I switch up the backdrop regularly to whatever color scheme best reflects the season. So, do you suppose semi-seasonal color schemes might be an option here? I think it would be nice to have a light instead of dark theme for a change, you know, with a snowflake in the corner or something. These colors are awfully dismal for this time of the year.

I know the process of making and implementing a new style set only takes about two hours on vBulletin if you know what you're doing. I'm not sure how phpBB works, but it can't be much more complicated. I realize the staff here are pretty busy, just thought I'd throw it out there in case no one had thought of it before.

if someone wants to put together a theme and send it to me (IE: post a link to the archive) I'll see what I can do. I unfortunately do not have enough free time to make a theme from scratch.

one of my other forums had a feature that made it look like it was snowing on the screen. I dont know how that would work on here or if people would like that.

shad your other forum is prob an invision free or similar forum with the same coding I assume. Those are usually easy to change skins around

IMO many skins is the sign of a board that can't be entertaining without gimmicks. I just realized recently that this forum has a hideous color scheme, but I love it all the same. The office version of this is really nice though.

Yeah the office theme is pretty sharp, but it does not have the little characters on the buttons. It also makes all the invisible/black text clearly visiable =P

It'll defeat the purpose of the office skin if we have avatars, signature banners, and other graphic stuff that will make it look like your doing something non-work-related. I developed that skin specifically so I can work on this site while I'm at work.

I had never thought of it like that before. Haha, what a good idea =P I'll have to keep that in mind in the future.

The office one is pretty nice if you can live without avatars and signatures. Loads quick too, I bet. :P

I prefer it when a board's skin matches the main site it belongs to, but other than that I don't have much a preference. I do think black-on-white is easier to read for hours than white-on-black, though; not sure why. Other than that, it doesn't bother me. I don't tend to even change if one is offered for most boards; I'm either just that lazy or once I find where everything is, I don't feel like changing it much.
