I've been thinking about this for a while, and Kiara's intro reenforced it. Should I change the layout of the forum? The color scheme can be a little tough on the eyes. Maybe I should change it to something a little softer.
What do you think?

It's been annoying me for a while...
I'll check the layouts to see if there are any good ones... _________________ Back in my day, we didn't have no fancy shmancy running shoes. We had to WALK.

Yeah, me too. Just don't don't set anything until we figure out what we want. _________________ Credits to Oranges_and_Pears for the Mewthree avatar! Yay!

Just when I thought it worked, the banner logo decides NOT to upload. >_<
I'm going to wait until I figure out how to make a new banner upload before changing the layout. _________________ Back in my day, we didn't have no fancy shmancy running shoes. We had to WALK.

My sister changed it on her forum. We can asked her how she did it if we need to.

Lolpoll. You can check both of the answers.
Personally, my favorite layouts are the darker ones. Like, black background and white, green, or red text. It's probably because I hang around a lot of forums with that kinda layout...
Of course, something lighter would work too.
The ability to change at will between light and dark layouts would be perfect.
Nehehehehe. Lotsa people I know are too lazy to do that. x3 _________________ LOL ASSASSIN RACOON.

You can pick both? Oh, maybe THAT'S what it meant when it said multiple choice . . . _________________ Credits to Oranges_and_Pears for the Mewthree avatar! Yay!

Okay, I've changed the normal board to something lighter. If it still looks the same to you, you need to go to your profile, (which is linked at the top in case you forgot,) and go under your Preferences. The third option from the bottom should be Board Styles and a drop down box. Here, you can pick whatever style of board you want, (there's only like three or four different ones though.)
We were on WS Orange. If you want to keep it like that, just keep it there. If you want to use the board I changed it to, go to mf_justgotta1, I think. It's something like that. Has justgotta in there anyway. You can also look at the other ones if you want. There are darker ones for those that like the dark backgrounds.
Then just hit submit on the bottom and then you're good. Once refreshed, the board will change to whatever style you've selected. By changing your prefences, the board will look that way for you when you log in, while other people can have something different. Everyone can be happy!
I'm working on a logo deal for the forum, so I'll load it into all the board styles when I have it ready. May make more than one for each style. We'll see. I hope to be able to edit the boards a little more so they don't look like every other Fast Forum out there. I'll keep you guys posted. _________________ Credits to Oranges_and_Pears for the Mewthree avatar! Yay!

Didja figure out how to upload logos yet?
If not, it's rather weird, I'll try to explain, although I'm not sure if I'm using the ideal method.
The uploader seems to have problems with folder names. I had to put the file I wanted to use onto my desktop and upload from there. Once you've got it uploaded, you can tuck it back into whatever folder you'd prefer to put it in.
I am glad to see a change in forum style though. The orange was kinda... um... eye-bleed inducing xD |

Heh, yeah it was.
And yeah, I figured how how to change the logo. At least I think I did. Am I the only one that can see the "Excuse us while we edit?" thing? I just put that up until I make up a new one. _________________ Credits to Oranges_and_Pears for the Mewthree avatar! Yay!

I'm pretty sure it is, yeah.
On a side note, I'm very glad we got the Myfs_Justgotta2 and Myfs_Justgotta3 working. :D _________________ Back in my day, we didn't have no fancy shmancy running shoes. We had to WALK.

Yeah, that was stupid. I don't know why they suddenly just started working.
And yeah, that's where I got that picture. I liked it too, and it was the best one in size and had her showing the best expression. It kinda bugged me while I was coloring it, noticing the errors, but I got over it.
