There is one new set of colors right now. It's fairly bright white and blue, but I will tweak it when I have time. Go to your profile, click "modify my profile" and then select the blue/white skin from the pull-down.
We will try to have a few choices soon, and let me know if you have any suggestions.

Takes some time to get used to the new blue and white sceam, but it's growing on me. Good work.

Well I didn't really even see it while editing the colors. I think slightly greyer blues and such will smooth it out a little.  I'd like a red one, since I like red so much. |

I like the blue/white scheme much more. It just seems almosta little too bright. I think i just need to get used to it though. I too think it'll grow on me. |

Heh, and I mellowed it out a little! You should have seen it before, the blue was bright blue and the white was bright white!

Great design, I like it very much. Somehow its much easier to read…
But, what do you think – wouldn’t club logo in header fit better, if it done in opposite colors (in negative or… how to tell… black graphics on white backing)?

I agree, and I briefly saw that about 4 days ago.

Yeah, I agree too. I had one up for a few hours earlier this week (probably when you saw it Jim). But the logo I liked didn't have all the symbols and writing on it (wasn't the one everyone voted for), so I didn't want to force my preference on everyone. I'll put it back up and perhaps we can use the black logo on the default skin. |

The white version is up. Later I'll try to replace the white with the same grey so it blends in better, or make the white into a transparent color.

There is now a very similar red version of the blue page. Not sure if I'm a fan, but it's ok. They are kinda simple, but I'm not an artistic guy. If you have a problem or have some artistic insight, let me know. I'm trying to tone down the red a little, it's a bit much. The problem is links are all one color, so that means the category titles on the main page (like Introductions) are the same colors as links in posts... :-\ I'd like to make them black but in-post black links would suck... |

The red font is not very appearling to the eyes IMO. If I were designing it, all dividers would be red (like the very bottom, and top bars.) Text would be black, read topics would be a light grey, unread would be bold/black. The red looks good though, just needs a bit of "touching up." |

Yes, I'd like to make the text blacker. The problem is then something like this www.google.com would show up as the same link color. So it would be black instead of red or blue or whatever. I don't think having black clickable links in posts would be good. It might get kind of annoying. I'll see what I can do. I agree, though, red should be just bits. Too much red is really too much. |

Ok, I tweaked the red for the text a bit. Is that better? It's now more of a grey/red, but it will still be obvious it's a link.in.a.post |

40 the font color for the member name is GREAT! The red in the top and bottom "bars" is a bit bright.

Ok, I'll see how it looks toned down. I figured for "red", a few splashes of red red would be good. I'll play around with it some more.

Dan, I only changed the bar red a little, hopefully you still think it's ok. I kinda like it better, sort of a deeper red now. I also tweaked the link text so that the red on red is more readable (like click on "members" and see the sorting options, it's hard to read but just how it goes).
I also created two "narrow" screens that use a smaller header. You can really squeeze the browser window sideways and not have it scroll. I'll clean up the resized image later as it's a bit blocky now.
