Post by Les_the_Sarge_9_1 »

Is it just me or did the forum just go from dark olive to bright cheery light blue greys.

If this is not a fluke then please keep it this way.

Nope, sorry -- it's not a fluke. I think you will find that the main Matrix games site has changed as well. :)

Maybe I just don't like change, but I think this color scheme sucks.

At first I thought I had accessed the Wargamer board. I like it though.

The brighter colors take some getting used to, but it looks good.

IT'S TOO BRIGHT! JEEZ, I JUST CAME UP FOR AIR FROM UV WITH ITS DARK BLUES AND DOGGONE NEAR WENT BLIND!

Actually, I don't think it's too bad, but when you get yellow smilies in it, you feel like you're walking down the housewares aisle in Wally World (WalMart fer them who ain't Arkies).

I suggest doing the background in a soft pastel rather than the "multiple shades of offwhite."

I think this means that Matrix is moving on from the first UV and SPWAW rush and trying to establish an identity for future endeavors. Shoot, it's still too bright!

New color isnt bad if you read it in daytime, but in the darkness of the night its just too bright, so i guess i have to wear sunglasses --> :cool:

So your only light source at nights is the monitor? Thats really bad for the eyes anyway, even with toned down colors. Same counts for the TV set ;)

Actually I like it as much as dont really know...

The bright colours make it cheery, but the darker original greens were like the comforting tones of the night (ok I am something of a creature of the dark too in some ways).

This can sounds funny, but I'll have more difficulties for sure, from now on, to read the forum at home.
My pc is in our bedroom, and I'm usually on till late, when my wife goes to sleep.She can bear with a darkish monitor, but i'm not so sure what she will say when see the whole room lighted up by this ultrabright pages :rolleyes:

My eyes are playing tricks on me, did the background bright white get changed again to a added gray line texture if so it is much more appealing. Thank you.
