Good or bad, I like feedback.. although an "it sucks" post is truly not desired. This dark look/theme is only temporary like before. It may change one more time between now and Halloween but it's always nice to hear whats on your mind.

Well, if you want to keep it for the rest of October in celebration of fall and Halloween, then that's cool and not a problem. I think a dark/black theme can work if you edit the source files a bit much like I did with my forum. Work with it enough and it can look quite nice. I prefer a darker theme personally as it's easier on my eyes, but the whole red and gray sort of became IMT's theme colors. It's up to you though as it is your forum and you may do as you wish. I support whatever decision you make on what the forums look shall be.

It's only an October thing.. our real colors will be back in November... maybe.

Well, I hope so. Those new colors aren't bad, but I miss the old theme.

It's like a good friend going on vacation...

I would post this in forum issues, but I will do so here as it pertains to the new look...for some reason the theme change has messed up the ability to change topic titles...they can't be changed.

I think it looks awesome plus its a theme to celebrate October and Halloween which happen to be my birthday so why wouldnt the forum be awesome for a theme dedicated to Halloween??!?

MirageAtoli · « **Reply #7 on:** October 01, 2009, 12:01:12 PM »

Plus this theme helps me track down white areas in my avy that i didn't see the first time.
It would be cool to have the theme of the forum related to certain holidays of the month.

I think he is talking about the IMT banner. Right?

ATiC3 · « **Reply #11 on:** October 01, 2009, 01:20:29 PM »

See if you can make the side where the avatar is showing.. just that part, maybe make it the old gray-ish color. I think that might look cool.

DARKTALBAIN · « **Reply #12 on:** October 01, 2009, 01:27:36 PM »

DARKNESS !!!!
Imprisoning me ,

Yuri Jacobs · « **Reply #13 on:** October 01, 2009, 01:47:43 PM »

I think this looks cool, but maybe a bit of black and orange would be more better to fit the Halloween theme.

I see your a fan of One by Metallica

A little more orange would make it a bit more Halloweenish, but regular members names are orange so that fits with the theme.

Yeah the particle emitter for the bats, in the banner.

Tengiz · « **Reply #18 on:** October 02, 2009, 07:16:36 AM »

This one (the black one which is active at the moment) is a lot better.
Gives kinda a warm feeling..

don't know how to describe it.. it's just good.
Didn't like the old (red) one.

DARKTALBAIN · « **Reply #19 on:** October 02, 2009, 03:40:24 PM »

For me the Orange & red names blend too much at the bottom of the forum. It's tough for me to instantly spot an admin online. Maybe it's just me, though

It's just you. If you are using a computer monitor, try to adjust the color level some. maybe less saturation.

Just a little something i noticed:Why can't post starters edit a thread's title anymore?
I use that feature a lot and if it lets you correct little mistakes when creating it(something i sometimes do,but now i have to delete the thread and start over)

Because I wanted to make sure someone earlier understood the rule about deleting your own topic being a NO-NO. Anyway, I reinstated that permission so all should be good now.

KPT25 · « **Reply #23 on:** October 02, 2009, 11:26:41 PM »

Cool...that's all i was asking(in case i make a mistake in the news section when creating a new thread

)
Thx Ex

I hope it was only reinstated for mods .

Anyway , my earlier comment. I think it's just my work computer. The LCD monitor is kind of old & the colors aren't right.
