Themes/Skins

[Valka]

Sorry, long night of commenting on CBC boards; some cow of a transit driver in Vancouver refused to help a 100-year-old woman get her walker on the bus and took off, leaving her stranded on the side of the road.

Currently trying Autumn. The icons are where they should be and the posting window is clean.

I'm not seeing significant technical issues other than my profile picture at the top has to be vertically scrolled - it won't all fit.

Aesthetically... well, it's clean, but not how I would interpret "autumn." The grey parts are too much like many other themes.

[Valka]

Now using Thanksgiving - this one is really nice!

The only weird thing is how all the text in the posts comes out underlined, like it's a link. I keep trying to click it, thinking it's a link, but it isn't.

Oh, and my cameo is missing.

Now on to A Christmas Carol...

As they say in lolspeak: Do Not Want. 

It's too wide, too busy, too jarring, the vertical menu on the side is driving me crazy after less than 3 minutes, and I can't think why I ever suggested this one.

[Valka]

Now trying SMF Pokemon... Holy crap, this one is bright! 

I'd use it when I need a dose of bright colors as a pick-me-up, but it's too neon-bright for me to use as an everyday theme. Overall, it's fine.

Usual issue: No cameo or shop items beyond the bare text.

[Valka]

Now trying Music... cameo's missing, so are shop items (not even any text).

150x150 avatars are too far to the left - enough to notice, but not enough to be annoying.

It's otherwise okay, but not really my cup of tea.

Feedback.  Very useful.

Some keep/kill/fix recommendations would help, too.

I'm beginning to think I'll have to spike Blue Eyes - doesn't really bring anything new to the table.

[Valka]

Patience, I'm getting there... 

Feel free to get rid of Christmas Carol, if nobody else wants it. I really don't like it for a lot of reasons.

[Buster's Uncle]

I done kilt off Christmas Carol, then.

[Valka]

It's dead, Jim.

And then there were 17.




...I'll want your input about what colors to change in Autum.  Post backgrounds, right?  A pain to track down, but doable...

Another one bites the dust . . .

Another One Bites The Dust

Okay, the now-current one is ImPulse2, and honestly it doesn't do anything for me. The background is a nice design, but the posting area is so large that the background isn't really visible. I like the color combination of the different greens and mint white.

If this is one that other people like, I won't ask for its removal. I don't hate it... it's just "meh."

[Buster's Uncle]

I think it's a bit meh, too, but Mylochka likes it, and I'm working on it now...
