Has anyone else noticed all the blue? Or was it there previously, and I've just returned from colour-blindness?

(see pic, if you also are in doubt of your ability to see colour )

So is this the run up to apollo v3, or did someone just decide to re-decorate?

It's just turned blue.

And if you go to your profile settings, you can change the colour too...

It looks like my browser has gone mad and highligted certain things. Yuck..

Mind you, I wouldn't be surprised if Firefox did that, the buggy piece of crap.

Nice work rich

So is this the run up to apollo v3, or did you just get sick of the same old colours ?

Ahh, the forum's obviously been possessed by evil ghosts and stuff.

I never liked blue. If there isn't some kind of sadistic green colour option, I'll cry. In fact, why am I typing. I ought to check the Profile out before typing this. So.

[Edit: Sadistic green found. I love this new feature of the forums, forget all of what I just said.
(For anyone who wants the good ol' theme, select the 'Silver Bullet' theme.)]

I did windows 95 revisited, turns out it only changed the colour of the headings, perhaps a completely new graphical style would be cool

*waits for thread titled "Poll: Which is the best colour scheme?" to appear.*

I like it, so far I'm happy with Purple Ronnie but I've only looked at that and the 'my eyes! my eyes!' one.

@Powersoft - Peter Kay by any chance?

Rich, can I make a really simple request for these forums (either for now or v3)?

Can you make the part up the top of the page that says "Geek Culture / Has apollo ..." so that the Geek Culture part is a link back to the forum? Fairly simple to implement, and would be rather useful

And gotta love the godlike.

EDIT: Also, have the fonts just gotten slightly larger?

I'd prefer the current theme if a bit of timed Javascript was used, to make the background alternate between bright green and bright yellow once every quarter of a second.

Mr. Flibble. I discussed this with Rich, I remember only seeing the forums in this font when I was logged out, when I logged in it was a smaller font. He says he doesn't know anything about it, so I don't know if there's an easy fix

I had the same problem and told him. He said he likes it how it is now (personally, I like the logged in smaller text)

btw Rich, have you changed the HTML so it no longer autosizes to your browser width? The TGC forums are now just too wide for my browser, meaning I have to screen to see who the last post was by

Any chance of getting it autosizing again?

1196 x 900 something

About 3/4 of the way to 1280x1024 from 1024x768.

I have favourites open all the time though, which adds a bar at the side.

It hasn't changed. I just resized FF to 1024 and no scroll bar appeared. It does at 800x600, but then it always did, so nothing new there. I've not tested it in IE (and for tonight, don't care to, maybe next week).
