What's the status on changing over the colour scheme, graphics, et all anytime soon?
These greys and whites are so bland I'm just dying over here....

Yeah. This forum's current color scheme is actually worse than Shireroth's.

That.. and the fact the scroll bar is just as big and obnoxious.

I will be working on the color scheme, attmepting to at the very least recreate the original shireroth scheme, sometime either tonight or tomorrow. (tomorrow is more likely, as tonight is new year's eve)
Once I get things to a stable point, where it can be generally agreed they look like the old forum (well, to a point. I won't be using the old logo... I'll probably be recreating most graphics on my own) I can start work on a mock-up theme that will be 100% unique, not just hacked together.

Hey now, this is some sexy shit!
Kudos on a kick-ass job.

Well, it's my hope that the NEW one will be even better.

But that's a way down the road.

You do know that Shireroth has had coups and civil wars over forum color changes, right?

Hey, no need for a war here. It's an OPTION.

holy crap... the forum looks... the same! same old lame-ass graphics, new forum system...
I like it.

Oh no, I've heard.
That's why this is the DEFAULT. I'll work on an additional theme, but it will be completely optional, since themes are entirely user-decided.
(And actually, Foghorn - there are a few NEW lame-ass graphics.

)

...would it be possible to use
this as the background image? Or at least mirror this theme except for the backdrop and call it "Malarbor Classic"?

Now that... is truly swanky.

I like this. It looks the same yet somehow better.
Anyway, I think your new scheme should be the default, and this can be selectable. The reason: only old people who have been here for years and years and years like this one, whereas everyone else who comes to visit hates it. Much easier to get us old codgers to change our settings than every other visitor.

I've been here for over a year.. and although this layout brings back memories... 'in with the new, out with the old and possible-immigrant scarer'
