True, nobody will use that, it would take a long time to load, and it would look really messy. Simple is best for this kind of thing.

BTW FeeCo Depot now has 5 votes :)..

STM, post your work in progress on here so people can give feedback. What's annoying for you is when you'll do all the work and finalise it only for people then to criticise it. Best to get feedback during the development, imo..

oh, come on, man. OANST doesn't look that bad.

It should include the 'GET THE FUCK OUT' gif in the main banner, then we could make it as the default forum theme for new members trying to join. That way, they can be under no illusions of what to expect from this place.

How long have the current themes been available for, anyways?

If by nobody you mean everybody, I agree.

Ouch.

And OANST...perhaps I could arrange something cryptic?

EDIT: FUCKING DAMN NEW PAGES!

Ok, so Necrum theme is a shit fuck to produce so I might have to swing towards feeco anyway...I'll upload colour schemes and title images once I've done my spanish and english coursework

Noooo...... Feeco will be awesome as well right?
The image I had in my head for Necrum was just amazing and as for which theme I use, Native is just so much better probably because I haven't really given the other ones a go! Muahaha

Actually... I'm curious for usability's sake.

Oanst, what makes you like Honey bee so much? Is it something to do with navigation? Less annoying colors?
I mean, I know you find the colors irritating... But your suggestion to a skin could be valuable. Criticism is always good.

You know... I don't think anyone has every conducted a survey on usability on this forum o.o

Actually, Honeybee has the least amount of features of all the skins, so it's definitely not navigation. It's the colors, pure and simple. The earthy browns combined with the white text makes everything very easy on the eyes, while the colors on the other skins are either too dark, or too putrid looking for me.

It does, however, look like sick.

Noooo. The Munch skin looks like sick. The colors in that one are vile.

Ok, well perhaps Necrum Desert will not be for you OANST, I'll upload some unfinished colour schemes and the title image (also unfinished,) but it all needs work.

Also it will take some time because my laptop is crashing and the wifi in my house is fucked...it'll take some time and also I sustained a terrible injury on my neck from a vicious rugby tackle that has rendered me unable to move my neck and head...it's hard to type and my activity on my PC in general will go down over the next few days...probably

You play rugby?

Kudos on the work, though. If it's the real deal, Industrial will have to lay down.

I do and have done for 11 years but I took a break and today fucked myself over in a bad tackle...plus some fucker jumped at my neck.

Did you miss the post in Fan Corner where he said he was using MSPaint?

Ehem, allow me to illustrate my current feelings in two words...ehem...fuck you. ;)

Since I don't want to go to fan corner, STM, I assume that nobody has led you to http://www.paint.net/ yet.

I'm afraid not. Doesn't necessarily mean it'll be crap though.

Last time I played rugby, I was utterly destroyed.

They let girls play rugby?

Oh snap!

Sexist!!!

Hmph!

They do...not very fun to watch though.

Oh...I see what you did there. Yer, funny.

@WoF, I'm not sure I understand what you mean w/ this link?

I mean it's a freeware paint program that's a billion times better than MSPaint and not that far below the level of Photoshop.

Yes, females wrestling each other in the dirt wearing shorts.

Not very fun by your standards.

Or you could use the GIMP like Nowtun and I suggested.

On-topic, please, everyone.

They're helping me Nate.

I might download gimp when I have a minute but atm I more welcoming to comments on the initial design.

Nate was referring to the female rugby comments.

I really hope that picture you attached took you less then 2 minutes to make, otherwise I wouldn't even bother anymore.

BTW this topic is tingeling my designer urges. It's too bad I don't really have time for it right now or I might just whip up some awesome Feeco theme.

I don't get what that image is meant to be.

Scrabtrapman: doing me proud.

Don't let me down!

Well, looks like you need to go and check some of my earlier posts.

It's only work in progress, not finished, concept title imagery that through editing took about an hour or two. Not finished but as you can guess, I don't feel like working on it right now. Sorry if that's an inconvenience.

EDIT: Thank you Pilot.

His work so far, I suppose. A banner, maybe some corner pieces? I dunno, really.

Edit: Damn you, next page!

But can you explain what we're looking at? I see some randomly placed copy-pasted images and some rectangular drawn boxes. What are they meant to represent?

Neither do I. Is it fitting the default forum themes' measurements with Scrabania?

Alright fuck it, someone link me to some high quality resource images and I'll make a Necrum forum theme.

Because holy fuck MSPaint is not the right tool for this job

Fuck you, you ain't putting my baby in an orphanage, as I've said for the fourth time. I'm not done. So let me be blunt with you...you personally, My aunt died on Saturday, sorry that her death is inconveniencing you Oddhunter but at the moment I'm a little preoccupied keeping the family going. Especially my dad. He never cried ever, not when his mother died, not ever, so imagine how bad it is for my family to see a 49 year old man break down.

So I'm preoccupied ok, this is on the back of my list of things to do. So is getting the forum resources, so is getting GIMP, so is getting more back grounds and finishing some test HTML.

This isn't about you being backed up and not delivering anything. It's about you clearly not knowing what you're doing if you start out by making a forum theme in goddamn paint.

I don't really care about any theme, but I think we could be nicer to STM. So, let's do that.

Thanks OANST, I appreciate the thought but I can look after myself.

@Havoc, the above quote is my fucking reply to you, see bold areas.

So yeh, I'll tell you what, your right, I'll just pick up where I left off, I'll go download GIMP to this laptop, I'll recall what I learnt from using it in past experience, I'll go write up the codes in HTML now, I'll finish off the title theme and I'll make sure that this is put far more important than anything else. And my aunts funeral stuff...that's not important, I'll drop helping out with inviting family over to this piece of shit country, helping my dad tell them that my aunts dead, and that they have to leave Ireland/ Australia/ Scotland and drudge over to here. That's what I'll do.
