Will this help combine the power of this forum?

Seems like you've already done it

Any way - for the stickys do you mean like this (see attachments)?

[Edit: you know, I'm a little upset that no one has commented on the fact that the logo in the top left lines up with the background - so much effort

Yes - thoses stickies look nicer.
Also - could you 'round out' the ! announcements?
Well done on lining up the landscape inside and outside the TT-Forums.net logo.

If you quote a quote, you can't see who wrote the quoted quote because the textcolor and background color are both set to black

Thaaaaaat's right and don't you forget it...

see?

Actually, I was the first to note that.
But thanks for caring.
I now have an idea about what to do about this (because I kinda like the black background - don't know about you), but it will take a bit of time.

Nice detail in the placing of the logo, Dominion! And I like the yellow sticky-button best!

how about making the one who is being quoted's name white, as that works on grey and black (u can read, u just have to highlight it). Well done on the img, no one noticed it because it didnt look wrong, (its the same as a light technician, when its gd noone notices, but if u mess up everyone notices.) is it just me or is the square just to the right of the truck slightly darker then the square next to it outside the box? (im not sure wheather it is lined up or not, the closer i look it apperas to be off by 5mm, but its probably me)

I hope you meant 0.5mm there...
It's close enough anyway.

I've already done that and the files are winging their way to Owen.

Also updated are the scrollbar colours, the sticky icons, and some other general things like the border of the helpline in new post.

It's just you

[Edit: see attached image for close up]

A while ago, someone suggested using a TT terrain as the background for quotes... I was thinking about it because the black colour doesn't look "TT-like", however I am not sure if a TT terrain with text on it would look good... What about making TT Water as that background?

I got the idea from TT (see images).

strange, on my laptop i seea:gridlines and b: the image lines up. but when i use the school computer the gridlines arent that clear, when the central server is up again ill (if it is different) send an img. looks better with the white on black/grey

ThorRune · Post by **ThorRune** » 07 Nov 2003 21:05

You should use the font color of this:

Just my opinion, alltho y on b looks great

GoneWacko · Post by **GoneWacko** » 07 Nov 2003 21:11

use the same font

or something very similar

ThorRune · Post by **ThorRune** » 07 Nov 2003 21:15

One other thing, i sereusly get an headacke of these:

Ewry time they disapear, my head feels like it got a beating. Can't you just make em diapear as smoothly as thay apear?

[EDIT:] Why, really, is the no new posts a newsletter?

You should make it a, um, errr... Something else.

I really like it - I think my avatar goes better with it now!. I agree that balck on yellow looks good on its own as I have used that myself. However, within the grader scheme, I think that the light blue colour on black would fit better.

I think that you should make the quotes look like the box you put your name in in the beggining. You know, this box. Instead of "Managers Name" put "Somebody said". The in the black area put the qoute.
