	Thank you darthtradar. Can you elaborate on the blog color scheme? I would like to have an idea so I can perhaps use this color scheme for the forums. Thanks

hey james, i use to work as a graphic designer during the dotcom nonsense. i'll do a mock color scheme in photoshop, that would be easier to explain than anything.

maybe there is a bug in the board because i just seen something you use opera but now i don't see it. opera rules. anyone who reads this, give opera a chance for a month, no way you ever go back. once you get use to browsing and ctrl + t, its over.

I messed around with a mock up in photoshop this weekend, but I honestly can't see much to improve things now that I've got use to the design.
I'll upload a graphic if you want, the only thing I can really think of is making this super faint blue that surrounds the reply box that I see right now darker so its no so close to white.

Sure darthtrader that would be great. Im actually getting a new designer to fix things up a little and change the coloring as well. But any requests or ideas will be helpful. Thanks!

	Same here, I actually spent some time this weekend while I was bored thinking of anything to suggest and I couldn't think of anything feasible. Good job! I can't even think of surfing ET anymore after being here. (((shudder))) The camaraderie is great.

Hey Reaver,

Good to have you back by the way. Glad to hear you like the new layout. Alot of time went into this project with some new forum features unlike any other forums. We are using a very recent forum system with plenty of custom features. Almost everything was custom coded either by me or a dozen other coders. Let me know if you have any problems using any of our functions. I need to write up a manual but its time consuming that I will need to slowly build that up.

Thanks James, it's great to be back. I am very glad to be able to be a part of the community here, it's quite an honor!

But seriously, there are some really great people here and it is BY FAR and I mean BY FAR the best forum out there.

Seriously if there's anything I can do to help out, let me know.

[Soultrader]

Made some additional changes to the color. The threads are now using php as well and should load significantly faster.

[Reaver]

Matter of fact, I was wondering just now what caused it to speed up...I just had the internet company over here earlier and thought maybe that was it. ha ha

I start to see the new background... really more relaxing for my eyes... good job James and thanks a lot ¡¡ cheers Walter.
