Re: Forum Upgrade

phpBB is terrible.
I don't much like the new vB either, but the security and structure of it is much better.

Hope this upgrade gives the forums that "new forums" smell.

Re: Forum Upgrade

I would personally LOVE to change the blue color on the forums and change it to something more stylish like idk, black? The color of pretty much the whole website is boring imo, if we mix up Black and {insert color other than blue} then I think the website would look so much better than it does now.


For example: http://dragonsfury.forumotion.net/

This, judges on what I saw from the link/a quick browse. Not stylish at all.

If you want a stylish black, something like this is at least better

I'm sure you can do every visual aesthetic the same way for a vbull forum though. Either way black doesn't feel fitting for this site really. But neither does the off white with the blue, personally. Something else is worth a try.

^Pretty bad in my opinion still (I mean plain noise for a background, wat) but a step closer???

Could always, of course, allow different themes to be chosen.

Re: Forum Upgrade

I like the whites and greys on this layout. Whatever happened to the alternating colors we had a couple months ago? I thought that went a great length towards making the forums more aesthetically pleasing. I loved the greens and reds.
Is there any way to make it so that individuals can choose what color they view the forums in? That's what I want. I'm sick of this blue.

Re: Forum Upgrade

Why not fluorescent pink yo?

But seriously, the forums as they are now are doing the job, but they aren't... Awesome. Maybe a couple of subtle gradients and a polish will do. The blue has to stay- it's FFR's signature colour.

Re: Forum Upgrade

I agree. Blue is FFR. You can't just ditch it... I think even if there is a change, it needs to include the blue still.

Re: Forum Upgrade

White and blue have always been FFRs colors, should stay that way.

And its not just the forums the need a change, think the whole site needs a new layout.

Re: Forum Upgrade

The FFR theme will be hot pink before it is black.
