Hello everyone, how have you been? In recent days, I've heard from some people that the site's colors are hard to read... I've been considering adding new themes (forum skins) to choose from, and the time has come to reveal them!
Two new themes have been added: a red-black variant and a green-black variant. If you'd like to see what they look like, just go to your profile and change your preference there (the Blue, Green, Red is denoted by a B, G, R). As always, feedback is appreciated, and I hope you enjoy them! Until next time!

Wow, talk about unexpected. After giving them a once over, I think I'll give the green one a shot. I didn't think that the blue was too bad, but the green is lot easier to read. One thing I noticed about the red one was that all the text is the same flat red color instead of having links in gray text like the other two do. That makes it a little bit confusing to look at.

Okay, I see what you're talking about. Originally, I thought the gray was a little painful to look at against the red, but I think that was more having gray as the border color as well. I've changed the links back to gray while keeping the borders as red. Anything else?

FREAKING YES.
I LOVE YOU ALY.
I REALLY DO.
... I'm currently using the green. Looks amazing. Now on low brightness, it doesn't look like I'm looking at abstract art.

It's nice to have some new themes! I usually love red themes but this one's a bit harsh on my eyes so I think I might change to green for a while reminds me of the matrix

Pfff. Aly. (Hey, can I call you that?... If you say no, then it's Jellyfish. ) But yeah, very pleasing to look at.

Sure. Aly works. I guess? ...reminds me of a certain squid... Things always return to the ocean, don't they?

Could you add a skin on a light background? All three of these are straining my eyes.

Could you add a skin on a light background? All three of these are straining my eyes. The problem with that is... then I can't go around hiding secret messages on the forums. See, as it is, each of these has the same color background, so I can hide messages no matter your theme (also the reason why there weren't any to choose from in the beginning ). Adding a light background would cause all my tricks to be horribly revealed! *gasp* THE HORROR!!! *faints*...so let me think about it. But for now the answer is no, and I apologize.

Wait, what? Hide messages? Very tricky, Alydar.... I suppose I have no choice now but to spend the rest of my day highlighting absolutely everything on the website in an attempt to find something hidden that is the same color as the background.
