--- Quote from: atreides ---I personally use radium as well, I am very fond of this posting board system, which is why I chose it, the Sign's server is a little clunky so something like vBulletin, or even phpBB would not work well, this board software flys compared to any other, and I like the stock styles that it comes with.

Yep. I used to chat on a music-related board (since closed) that ran the same software, so it had a cool "deja vu" feel when I first logged in. Nice choice!

I'm using "Mercury" myself. Funny how there's at least two "alchemical" metals in that list of options. ;)

And a substance used to treat shizophrenia...

I have since switched to cobalt, and am working on a easier on the eyes theme...

Heimdallr:
yes, cobalt is much better.  i like the dark backgrounds cuz the white one is like looking into headlights.  i even turned down the brightness of my monitor but still too bright.  and i see the default settings are cobalt now.  very inviting...

--- Quote from: atreides ---I don't plan on ever forcing a background color, though I have given thought to allowing people to create and use a css file on their home machine, I have begun testing such a thing out, and wonder how well it will work, there is also a theme choice planned, where you can choose certain predefined flavors, for which I will certainly be asking our budding community to submit color themes.

Those who may want to participate, might want to look into CSS and how to use it, this is all very 'in the future' which is open, and we will see.

This is a hoot!
I actually logged in to post a reply to some people that didn't like the dashed lines, etc and tell them they should just write their own stylesheet and load it via IE or Firefox developer toolbar or through the use of a favelet (see http://tantek.com/favelets/ or http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/tools/favelets/).

You beat me to it ;-) Do I sense some co-linearity?

The idea I was also going to suggest was to have a "stylesheet design challenge" and select a top three. All good fun and you can count on my contribution.

Dev toolbars:
