Server Migration - Your Voice Is Needed

There's just too much white, some contrast would make it better and if you can change the pink to the GIF red you're using on top.

 

I can make the background where the text is a little more gray and which pink are you talking about? It probably has to be a light color because of the text color...

 

Also there's pink in the quote box "86Ward said" and the border of the page numbers and when you hover them they turn pink. Probably some other areas as well.

I know this might be piling on, but when I click "new posts" and the list comes up, is there a way to make the avatar next to it the last person that replied? Right now it shows the avatar of whoever started the thread.

 

Not sure what the admin tools are but that should be possible but it might require server access to do it. Also forgot to mention if you can just the Forum pictures on the index page that looks like quote bubbles to something like it was before.

 

Just a head's up for any users who might be having issues with the site being slower than the old site. One thing to keep in mind is that your browser might have the old images from the former site in it's cache. Log in, give it a spin and in time the cache files needed to load this place quicker will be saved locally in your cache.

 

I darkened those Pink boxes up and made them more red...better? I also darkened the text area as well...

 

I so DON'T miss the skin editing. Props to whomever is going to be working on that.

 

Much better.

 

what browser do you use @SteveRobWhatever ? If you use FF firebug helps quite a bit when editing things like the skin.

 

I don't see a way to do it in here Admin-wise. There is an add-on you can get that will do that for us. @FantasyKnucklehead may have to add that on...

 

Thanks for cfreaking that out ward.

And yea the red looks waaaay better.

 

Crap, XenForo is not that far removed from vBulletin. It's by people who worked on vBulletin before splitting off for whatever reason. They have modifications that can easily be added to enhance a site. Things to consider when installing modifications:

http://xenforo.com/community/resources/categories/template-modifications.32/
http://xenforo.com/community/resources/categories/code-modifications.33/

Some of those modifications can be as easy as uploading one file to the site's backend. Others might involve some editing of the site's default templates or adding files to the server/editing files on the server. You want to make sure any modifications you do download are supported in case a security hack is ever cracked. Plus there are people who can custom code stuff on the site. We used to use CarlitoBrigante, which actually was a collection of coders we used to use to bring in when hired help was required for coding. The thing that I love about them is they are reliable, they deliver on what you ask. They also have advised on do/don'ts for modifications, coding and more.

 

Where is this button?

 

Got it. Thank you!

 

leave the dark color scheme alone please and thanks

 

@Kurt There is a white theme. We can make that the default...
