Update the Forum Theme?

Postby Draigun » Tue Jun 01, 2010 11:12 pm

I was thinking of this when I woke up. Do you think we should update the forum theme to something a bit more different, or anything besides the current theme? You don't have to vote.

This is not an official announcement for updating the forum themes. The decision is based off of MC, so therefore he is the deciding factor.

I had a 'Woody' when "I" woke up Drai. Can't say it was due to the Forum though. Anyway, can you be more specific?

What I meant was a new theme for these forums here. Such as a change in color, boxes, links, buttons etc. Basically an overall upgrade to make the SWGO forums different or some may consider, 'better'.

Sure. Anything that would attract new players is good. Personally, for starters, I'd like to see the banner at the top have a black background with yellow and red SWGO. Similar to the Gaming Order website (Clan link from the JBA NEW and HA websites). I think the medium/light blue colors may be too Pastel. Not enticing or 'cool' enough? Has to catch the eye.

Yeah stuff like that. Something "new" if you will.

unless some of you guys have the know-how and the will to make SWGO theme for phpbb3 for free... no, ty.

I wonder Drai - do you propose to do a theme change for us or just want someone to do it for you ?

I really, really, really don't care.
The forum layout is more important than the theme for attracting new community members; easy to navigate without too many sub forums and sections etc. I think it's fine the way it is, though.

I have no knowledge nor experience in this field. I thought that it would be nice to change the themes, but if you're saying it costs money then leave it the way it is. And a suggestion doesn't hurt really either.
