Might be an Unocolorblindness thing, but the AC2 background was added to the avatar box sometime in the night, and I can no longer see user names.  Only the titles.

I'll look into it - nothing was changed except a background added and I fiddled with the text margins a little to fit better; no doubt, it IS a color problem, the parchment background being a sort of dark pale orange.

-It's not incredibly legible for me because of the art design --- I'm going to try changing the text color first.

Incidentally, I made a new Wiki logo to fit the box, but that's a strange interface, and it resized - another thing to try IRT that...

I got the Wiki logo to fill all of the box it's allowed to - it's an SMF thing outside theme stuff, and how to do something about the frame is over my head - but at least the white's reduced...

I kinda liked it with the white background on the posts better.  Not sure, but it feels too dark now.  Just call me fickle.

...We can certainly go with parchment.  Anyone else?

Background turned grey instead of the yellow parchment color.  Feels cold now.

More legible now.  -Kinda central to the idea is understated colors, as the kept the golds muted in in the screenies.  You and Uno are pushing for parchment(ish) colors for the indexes and post backgrounds, and I expect we'll need the contrast - it's gonna be a lot of dull brown if we go that way...


Dale, I managed to make the Reply button less different.  Good?

I went to some extra trouble to not make them exactly alike - it doesn't have the same hover effect, and the reply button should stand out as the most needed/used/should be easiest to spot, by design.  It's like that in the default theme and most of them..

Okay, not a lot of feedback like I wanted, but two sorta votes for tan/parchment post backgrounds and indexes.  I'll switch those and the stickied thread colors after I get back in from cat time, as I recall it's not a major job.

-I'm concerned that this'll amount to too much light-medium brown, but we'll see...

I just need some folks to volunteer opinions 'bout how close I am to being finished...

There are two kinds of scientific progress, the methodical experimentation and categorization, which gradually extend the boundaries of knowledge, and the revolutionary leap of genius which redefines and transcends those boundaries. Acknowledging our debt to the former, we yearn, nonetheless, for the latter.
