Still in the process of modifying the forum layout, etc, any modifications anyone else would like to see?

Hey Dan,
The scrollbar is scary, you can't see where the bar is!
Need a bit of transparency on your GIFS (FAQ/Search/etc.)
In fact, just redo all of the phpBB icons or look for a theme pack.
As for the logo, I'd maybe just use the gs | sg part?
Otherwise everything else looks OK!

Scrollbar - Will be made into normal colours, i.e..I'm gonna remove teh CSS for it.
I wil be replacing the majority of the images, I;'m just taking the standard Subsilver template and ripping it to pieces and making it my own
Logo will be changed.
Spelling & stuff...gimme a chance! lol
Long term aim: To do what Tom & Spooky have done wit the forums here...make them W3C compliant
Dan

Hey Dan :)
I am not fond of the colors at all. I would stick with the scheme already in place for your site to keep it "branded".
The logo. Don't know what i think of that really, so I will leave that and revisit later.
I will sign up, and provide articles. Let me know when it is ready to go.

Hey Lori
Glad to see your alright with that Hurricane going around over there
The colors are done like so so it fits in with the rest of the web (http://giomanach.wm-talk.com)
I haven't touch this since I posted this so I'm still looking at ideas for images etc ;)
I know how good you are all the puter stuff....so I'll be generous...=D
Dan

RE: Before I go any further... - 9/7/2004 2:21:58
Ok, I see the support main page now. I just still don't like the colors. I prefer less "bright" - but that is just me ;)
I really do not like that logo, and big sorries to Mark, but I don't fancy any of the ones he did for GS. Not sure what I would change, but none of them sit well with me. You know how picky I am though so, if you like it good enuff - I am just not one to hold my tounge - especially with U :)
What do you mean you are looking for ideas for images? Images for the forum?
Thanks for the "hurricane" thoughts. That one is all gone, and now another is on the way - UGH!

You stay safe, and keep the family safe

Going along with dave:
Blue - yes, but not that shade of blue in the tempate above; and in the site as it stands, it is too overpowering.
Orange - yes, but not GOLD, which is the color in use currently; go MORE orange.
Grey - yes, as in use in the forums; sleek color.
My opinion: Use more WHITE, and the blue/orange/grey to pull it all together.

Loose the BG blue, and make it a very very light gray.
Other than that, I think this is much better Dan, jmpo. The colors - the header - the "logo per se".
I would still do something different as my design eye is not located on my head in the same spot as yours, LOL! But I honestly feel much less "turned off" by the new color choices and header.
