Which one influenced your choice? The subsilver2 layout? I've been thinking of returning to that as the default layout.IrishViking wrote:
Its energy efficient though. Not gonna lie, when I first started coming here, its something that influenced my choice.
But I don't want to irritate Vikings fans though!Nunin wrote:I'm for whatever seems to irritate opposing fans as the default.
I am currently enjoying the subsilver2.
No opinion or concerns about the banner

yeh, twas tongue in cheek.Cliff wrote: But I don't want to irritate Vikings fans though!
The subsilver2 is much easier on my eyes for sure, which is what matters most to me.That makes sense. I wasn't going to do away with the background either way. Every user has the option to switch between their backgrounds and I would have left it up as an option at least.IrishViking wrote:The black background part haha. I mean, its negligible energy use but white versus black does use more power and wear out screens faster. Again not really worth working around for one person, just a personal thing I liked.
OMG that was funny. I especially enjoyed the poster who pondered what kind of hat Fig would wear at the PC.Funkytown wrote:Check this out:

Watch the meltdown as it happens.
Wow, what a horrible board. I am very happy and proud to be on a board that doesn't act like that. Wow.Nunin wrote: OMG that was funny. I especially enjoyed the poster who pondered what kind of hat Fig would wear at the PC.
Game threads are hilarious
Same here, I use the subsilver, probably because it is the closest to what we originally had back when there wasn't a choice. Not a fan of the black background either.Cliff wrote:Re: Message Board Layout.
I'm with Jim, I use the subsilver2 layout. It's a plain-jane look but it's really clean and easy on the eyes. The black layout was something that was created before I took over and is the one that is the "default" setting. There aren't really graphics at all on the one I use.
I've thought about revamping the layout or at least changing around the colors but I don't have a graphics background at all. I'd happily replace the banner though if Jim makes one.
I'd also be open to hearing color scheme ideas. I don't really like the black background at all personally.
For the most part many of them sounded like extensions of Newton's personality. Bad winners...poor loses, pouty etc?PurpleMustReign wrote: Wow, what a horrible board. I am very happy and proud to be on a board that doesn't act like that. Wow.
It's interesting that some people love the black theme and some absolutely hate it. I guess that's why it's so nice to have options. I just looked at the other options, and they aren't "Vikings" at all. Why isn't there a light theme that feels Vikings-y? Also, the black theme doesn't hurt my eyes at all ... but with those other themes ... it feels like I'm staring at the sun. lol. We've talked about this before. The black theme hurts some people's eyes (older people, I think?S197 wrote: Same here, I use the subsilver, probably because it is the closest to what we originally had back when there wasn't a choice.

), but man, those light themes hurt mine. Then again, I've been using this dark theme (and our dark theme on Vikings Journal/Purple Pain) for years now. Maybe I've adjusted. Basically, I think the dark theme is the best option over here, but the banner could use some updating, especially when you have Jim on your team! This should be the best-looking board around! Those light themes could use some sprucing up, as well. 
) And it will be soon. It'll probably be dedicated to Zimmer and the Z-Fense.
