Nope, I sure didn't change anything. Weird. I've had a look at the skin on different monitors and it totally depends on what kind of monitor you're using. Different settings and different kinds of monitors give off a different shade of green.

Okay, I've decided. I definitely don't like the underlining. It works with short usernames, like Haldir's, but it really doesn't look good with a long one like Arwen's. No offense to anyone's usernames

I might cry just a little bit (and also feel guilty) if you change your username to Bob.

How about Bob the webmaster? Is that any better? The underline's gone anyway, so we'll have to be Bob-less. Sad. (Well, if you toss a bottle of water at your computer, holy or not, it will probably kill IE...and everything else on your computer... ) I never go off-topic, never ever...

The underlining is gone. I didn't like it either.
But seeing as only a few of us have voiced our opinions on it, we could still bring it back if the majority of all forum members want it.

Hm, well I liked it because it made the usernames stand out, but I honestly don't care either way. -shrug-

Love the new layout. I think the green is the perfect shade. Lovely, warm, dark. And the new "New Topic" and "Post Reply" buttons are gorgeous! I guess to nit-pick over things, I'm not crazy about how the post background colors alternate. It's a little bit distracting, and it also makes me want to time my posts so that I only appear in the dark green 'cause I like that color better. (I'm on the light green now, darn it! ) Also, the header font looks a little messy to me. I've seen it on the site header, and I think it looks alright there because it's bigger, but when it's crammed onto the forum header it just looks messy to me. But again, that's just my opinion and I also get the need for it to be continuous with the header of the site. But those are just little things, and definitely nothing I can't live with. Mostly I think it's really, really, great.

Haha I see your point, but to be fair - they alternate on the blue skin as well though maybe not as noticeable.

Sometimes the difference is big, sometimes I barely see it. I like the darker one best though And can I say, the new colors are making me happy. Bright and shiny (well, not really) and green and spring-y and DIFFERENT! I love it

Well I just changed them a wee bit, so that they're closer in shade.

I did like the blue a lot, but I really like the change. It feels so warm and full of life here now! ErulissëEnethNîn wrote: Haha I see your point, but to be fair - they alternate on the blue skin as well though maybe not as noticeable. Ah, I went back and saw that it did indeed. (It's funny how I've been staring at that skin for 5 years and never noticed. ) Thanks for changing it, Eru! I like it much better now. It looks wonderfully dark and foresty!

It's strange how some thing you never notice at all. I didn't realize they alternated on the blue skin until I saw the CSS code, haha. You're welcome, it looks better now to me as well.

Bring the line back!!
Joking.
That is true. As it's a new computer, I'll just live with satan. We've been in a relationship for years anyhow.
The colours look fine to me. I didn't notice they changed from page to page. I'm just happy we have a new skin.
And I can see what you're saying about the header Taur, but I am really in love with what Eru has done with the text, and actually if you swap back to the blue skin, you'll see the Arwen-Undomiel.com is far more crammed I think, to the point it's not really easy to read. The font on this header is bright and vibrant and I think really stands out as well. The only thing I would maybe suggest (in case more people feel like yourself) is that Eru could have Arwen-Udomiel.com on one line. I know the main site header won't be on one line, but a slight deviation won't hurt I don't think and it might seem to be less crammed.
But as I said, I love it the way it is.
