New color choices - AGAIN

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

I added a Friends Edge, Fancy Red, and a Tangerine Color Scheme.

If you find something not working, please PM me.

I have one more to add and then we will be removing some.

:nutso

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

Testing features.

[Felicity]

I think I like the red!

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

I think I like the red!

I am going to add a few more icons at the top, but yes, very very nice!

[Felicity]

I am going to add a few more icons at the top, but yes, very very nice!I haven't decided yet if it's hard on the eyes or not. It's late and so my eyes might just be getting tired.

But it's quite cheerful and happy feeling I think.

Cheerful and rough on the eyes is Tangerine!

[Felicity]

Cheerful and rough on the eyes is Tangerine!Yeah I agree.

Hey, off-topic I know, but I've been thinking that we need a POETRY thread!!

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

Yeah I agree.

Hey, off-topic I know, but I've been thinking that we need a POETRY thread!!

Thought all night.
now it is late
don't let the idea go to naught
It seems to start- your fate!

Go for it!

[COOPER]

I like the freinds edge, but it has a lot of "x" on it

[LadyChocolate]

I like the freinds edge, but it has a lot of "x" on it

that is prob my favorite also.....but yes, there are still some "x's'

[whollyHis]

LOVE this red!!!! The Friends' Edge has a lot of red x boxes that I don't like...

[The Mrs]

Cheerful and rough on the eyes is Tangerine!

Rough on the eyes???

It's SOFT and GOLDEN! :razz

I LOVE it!!! Thanks so much BOOM!!! :highfive

[The Mrs]

[Esther]

Hmmm, let me switch to the XP box and IE and see what is broken.

[Esther]

BOOM you deserve a huge applause for all the work you have put in here!:highfive :ty

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

The Edge has buttons now.

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

I see this icon does not appear.

I have to search for where to find it.

It works when you reply...

It looks like it's only broken in sig line.

[IAintMovin]

The Edge.....uh......rocks... LOL

[IAintMovin]

The Edge does not have the "New Post" button and I dont even know how to function without that button... :D :D

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

http://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com/search.php?do=getnew

It is on the ToDo list.
I also know about the 3 broken links at top of Red.

:ty

[Felicity]

I keep coming back to default blue. I find it's easiest on the eyes, even though I do like the red.

[Theresa]

I cannot survive without the new posts button LOL

I dont know my way around without it - so I guess I have to go back to the default LOL

[LadyChocolate]

Red is nice but there are still 3 x's on the top of the page. I like the edge, but the blue writing on the blue background is difficult to read. Red could be a keeper for me.

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

I cannot survive without the new posts button LOL

I dont know my way around without it - so I guess I have to go back to the default LOL

Let me see If I can get it working

[LadyChocolate]

where is the logout button on the red screen?

[The Mrs]

where is the logout button on the red screen?

Bottom right.

[Warmbee]

I really like the red, but the tangerine is just DELIGHTFUL!!!!:bliss :heeheehee

[Felicity]

I keep coming back to default blue. I find it's easiest on the eyes, even though I do like the red.I'd prefer titles to the picture icons at the top of the red version denoting new posts, calendar, search, etc. I find them distracting with the colors and all.

It needs to be simpler I think. JMO.

[Warmbee]

I just noticed on the left side of tangerine (if your looking at the list of threads) there are these little pictures ('N's' and the post pic) that are flashing.... sowry I'm not to good at describing stuff.

Those are called Status Icons I believe. :winkgrin

I can add Navbars but that distracts from the icons purpose.

Added "Get New Posts" to navbar in Friends Edge

[Rhymis]

"I don't wanna be bluuuuuuuue."

Try Tangerine then!

[Barb]

BOOMMman, I love the RED, especially when posting...so cool!! I am trying to figure everything out, but think I will stay with the red for a while...thank you!!:highfive

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

My wife said this works best for her low vision. It was not intentionally high-contrast.
I am still working on the Navigation Bar.

I like the red, too.

Is one missing? "Blue Toast" or something like that??

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

Blue Toast was a fixed width skin and so I chose instead fluid skins that would work on a variety of user options.

Okay...??? LOL

Red is good.

[Trouvere]

The same for me.Somehow something has not been enabled.I had a good page before now when I pull up the page it has red x's all over it in the function boxes.

IE or FF?

Clear your cache and try it again.

It will be repaired.
I have worked quite a while on the repairs.

[LadyChocolate]

:heeheehee Looks like Red is good to go! I like it! man, i need to get into this line of work... i love decorating!:heeheehee

[LadyChocolate]

oops! no, my pagees are off set...The smilies on the right are just about gone...Ill try to adjust my display setting, maybe that is it.

[Malvaro]

Default logo, it has a nice "soft" feel to it....

[Subdued]

When I open a thread using a color/skin other than red, the page automatically goes to the bottom & places my cursor in the "Quick Reply" box. Does that happen to anyone else? Is there a way to prevent it? (It did not happen with the "Blue Toast" either.)

It's so annoying having to scroll back to the top of the page! Not that it's anything major - just a bit annoying.

Are you on IE or Firefox?

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

The red had many thing broken, so I installed a Black theme.

Not much different than the red-

EXCEPT everything seeems to work!

Look for a Spring theme to replace Valentines next.

[Barb]

What happened to the red, BOOMMman?!

[The Mrs]

What happened to the red, BOOMMman?!

He said there were too many broken links and buttons in Red, and couldn't get it to work right, so replaced it with black, which is very similar. It just has a black background as opposed to red.

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

What happened to the red, BOOMMman?!


It was BADLY broken.

Check out Spring!!

[Barb]

It was BADLY broken.

Check out Spring!!

Hon, the design is VERY nice, but personally don't care for the colors...

[The Mrs]

By the time BOOM is done, there will be something for EVERYONE!!! :lol

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

By the time BOOM is done, there will be something for EVERYONE!!! :lol

Well I will not go THAT far.

I think we have a nice mix so far.

[The Mrs]

They are all absolutely FABULOUS!!!! :bliss :bliss :bliss

You've worked so hard to get these nice choices up!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! :ty

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

The Spring and Black have rollover dropdown in the NavBar.

That was on my to do list for the other colors. These are very nice and needed little to change.

We will get some banners set up.

:ty

[philjones]

Bro. Boomm,

What happened to the neat windowsesque buttons on the top bar? Those were nice and very attractive. Perhaps they were part of what was broken?

[Subdued]

Are you on IE or Firefox?
IE

[Sister Truth Seeker]

I like SPRING....the colors are soothing and the tulips are so wonderful.

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

IE

There is a setting "snap to cursor" in IE that moves your Mouse to the next form.

Are you running any accessibility settings?

Are you using version 6 or 7?

Does it happen in the new Black/Spring skins?

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

Windows XP mouse Snap To

Enable the Microsoft Window XP mouse Snap To feature to automatically focus on dialog box buttons. Enabling this feature will automatically move your mouse cursor to the default button on any dialog box that appears on Windows. This is a great way to save a little time and not have to move you mouse cursor to the "Ok" button each time a dialog box appears. To enable this feature follow the below steps.

Click Start, Settings, Control Panel.

Double-click the Mouse icon

In the Mouse Properties window click the Pointer Options tab and check the "Automatically move pointer to the default button in a dialog box" option.

[Barb]

By the time BOOM is done, there will be something for EVERYONE!!! :lol

Well I will not go THAT far.

BOOMMman, regardless of how my comments may have sounded, I am grateful for all you do for the board!! It's just that I woke up at 2:30 this morning and the red was gone...I hadn't seen the post where you stated the red link was broken.

My comment about not caring for the colors in 'Spring' was not criticism...just an opinion.

So, :ty :ty :ty BOOMMman!!

I don't think I'm running any accessibility settings. I'm using IE7. No, it doesn't happen in Spring. I haven't tried Black yet. Why would it happen w/some skins & not others?

[BoredOutOfMyMind]

I like SPRING....the colors are soothing and the tulips are so wonderful.

Heh, heh, heh, my graphic counterpart- The Mrs said I was wrong to keep those tulips!

My wife commented she could see Fancy Red better than other skins, so I kept at it even though it was broken badly in many ways.

So Black having the same base colors was to help her here in part.

She said she can see Spring better still. I have noted Bishop1 and Steadfast sometimes type in larger fonts..... perhaps the new colors will help them!

I am thick skinned. I have also had the flu for TWO WEEKS so I don't let much bother me.

Did Black soothe you as the colors are close to Red?

[Barb]

Hmmm...didn't realize I posted anything you would be bothered by...again, it was JUST an opinion...oh well, eh?!:dunno

If I am allowed another, and since you asked, I don't care for the black either...I'm am keeping the spring because I like most of it and hope the lighter colors will grow on me.

It's no biggie, hon...:ty

My cursor still goes directly to the Quick Reply box, with every skin & no matter if I've selected "automatically move pointer to the default button..." or not.

[Nahum]

I'm using the "edge".

You are doing a great job BOOM!

[Barb]

Ok, so what colors do you want?

LOL!! Hon, it isreally no biggie...in whatever you provide, I will find something I can live with.:highfive

I am content and was just saying that red worked best for these forever tired eyes...but it's no biggie!!

Now carry on, BOOMMman, and don't give me another thought!! :kittyhug

Sis. Barb...I didn't think you were being critical in the least.

Just reading what you had posted made me realize that BOOM has several skins up his sleeves, and will most likely be adding more skins that will appease many of the different personalities represented on this forum.

I'm sure he appreciates everyone's opinions. You know what they say about the squeaky wheel? :heeheehee

Hahaha! NO! You are not the squeaky wheel! :heeheehee

I just know that BOOM will try to please those that speak up. :D

Unless of course, everybody speaks up at once...then he'll probably go all commando on us. :lol





I like the bigger font in the reply window with the Spring skin as well...it must be the default setting.
