Suggest anything you want to improve this board. Also suggest any photos you want to decorate the board, or just post the photo here for consideration.
I fixed us the post rankings, and will be adding more later.

Did Sportsbow opt not to be a mod on this board? His recruiting updates were a staple and integral part of the other board.
*nevermind, I see his name has been added to the mod list.

For the future of this board, should look for a way for new posters to find this board.

Krusha/Crusaders, etc.,...This color scheme is rreally hard to read. It's kind of dark and the hue of green doesn't provide good contrast for the text to be easily readable (especially for aging eyes like mine). Do you think we could adjust the colors a bit to make it easier on the eyes? Thank you.

OMG! The background colors look like the background to the Sports Access Show LOL
What happened did somebody spill the can of paint?

I just lightened up the colors. Let me know if you want it changed more. It's hard to change since it's more trial and error with the controls.

How's this color scheme? I made the message box background white, text black, and background green. So, somewhat identifiable as a Warrior fan site with conservative touch...

Color scheme is much better from the reading standpoint. Thanx!

Please no neon green!
Makes it too obvious when I read at the office.
Actually, certain board software will allow the user to change from preset themes (usually office-friendly is one of the available themes). I don't know if this software has that or not.

I thought saw something in the profiles page that lets you change "skins"--whether or not that affects the appearance of the global scheme, I don't know...

I just figured out how to change the skins or theme, whatever it's called. I honestly like the default one the most -- it's the one that shows if you are not logged in. Once you login, the default is the neon green back which I hate, and the other option is a teal green primary on white back. This is acceptable, but the one you see before you login is best imo. Profile -> Modify Profile -> (scroll down) Select Skin Or, replace USERNAME with yours: warriornation.boards.net/index.cgi?action=modifyprofile&user=USERNAME

Changed... How about this? IMO, I think the green is a little too dark because it makes it hard to read the black text. To my eye, it's a little too somber too, with just the darker green. That said, the chartreusey kinda green, while easier to read the text, was a little bright. The hard thing is to find the right colors and tints, so that it's eye catching but not obnoxious, colorful but doesn't detract from reading the text. I personally liked the previous scheme (that I believe Krusha put together) because it was easier to read the titling areas and bright enough without looking all wild. The darker green as a border around the posts themselves was okay and the white for the posts was fine--the lighter, brighter green as the outside (narrower border didn't bother me (although obviously, others didn't like it). There has got to be a middle ground somewhere... (Perhaps this current (darker) green for areas without text/titles and maybe the silver (grey) for areas with titles and stuff?)

Right now I'm using skin "a" which works for me.
Mods are able to add additional skins right? You don't have to replace any, so users can try them all and pick the one they like.
They do need unique identifying names though. E.g. Dark Green, Light Green, Dark, Office Friendly, etc.
Which one are you using cocopop? Default?

I'm using which ever color scheme the Admins have chosen to throw up there. Haven't picked a personalized one...
