Small Suggestion

[NightwishRaven999]

Being a relatively quiet member on here, I am not sure if my suggestion would be taken well or not...

But there is no harm in asking

Have you (forum admins) ever considered changing the colours of the forum ?
Personally, I dont like the Pink and Purple layout.
I can see that most of you here are women...so I imagne these colours agree with the majority of you ;D

But have you ever considered changing the forum colours to Terra Cota, Orange, Brick Red, Brown or Tan ?

Not only would these colours make this place a little more welcoming for us guys, but these colours can easily be associated with degus and rodents in general.



I realize that you probably worked hard to get these colours and this layout...I am sorry if my post it somewhat offensive. Be assured this is not my intent.

I have always felt that the site colours are quite an eye sore especially when I am tired lol.

I think a white plus one or two other colour scheme is always a good bet on a web forum (like dominantly white with a bit of blue and grey background for example.) Too many clashing colours is usually bad practise for HCI due to the chance of someone being colour blind or just your eyes dying of RSI (repetitive strain injury.)

It's nice to see someone agree. You shouldn't be afraid to give your opinion about it!

I only really see deguconvert active though when it comes to site staff so not sure if it'll ever change. I am under the assumption that only the forum owner has the access to editing the theme.

Something between these two colours would look stunning on the forum.

That would be totally up to the site owner, Sunshinemeg. She set everything up and has control over that. I think if you click on her name, you can see her profile and her email is listed there if you want to contact her. Maybe give that a try?
