    [​IMG] Number one.

    Number two, is well, a number two quite bluntly.

    and number three is just... not as nice as number one, or what we have already.

    Number One,

    The contrast between the background and the lettering is strongest, and therefore provides for easier reading of posts.

    1, no question about it. Black background is always preferable over anything else. Messing around with a bunch of different colours rarely lead to something good. Plain and simple is more or less always the best.

    You should really think about not changing colours. I like the current one too but 3 is the better of the given options.
    2 sucks. BIG TIME!!

    Well, if I'm really short on time I might not get around to changing at all, so you'll get your wish. ;)

    What's wrong with #2, anyway? I like red.

    Anyway... I did not vote #2 because no one likes it. Instead I voted #3.

    I see no difference between #1 and #3, so I chose #1 since it was closer to the top of the page. :rolling:

    I think number one is better than the one we have now.

    The second one looks too much like the ironworks forum, and they aren't nearly as good as here. Try and disassociate from that. The first is the best, but the third isn't bad.

    [​IMG] Thanks for the input folks. If I do get the chance to change the colours, it will be to the option #1.

    You could also add an option to have people select what colour it will be for them (Like on the official Morrowind forums)if that is possible.

    I still prefer the good ole' blue one though. :)

    That would be possible with another board software, but not UBB.classic (currently). As for the site, it would have to be custom built, and we're already building 4 separate layouts for the various subscription options, so colour selection will not make it in.

    Either 1 or 3, not two... its very... yucky colour combination.

    I don't have a clear winner though. Personally I love the colour scheme at the moment.
