Howdy y'all, I have ask both wendy and melissa about this and got an "okie dokie" so here it goes... I have a vegetable gardening forum notjusttomatoes.proboards.com/ that I have made some background themes on and would love to get some feed back on from y'all. The default theme that I have up now is the "Easter" theme and just wanted to see what y'all thought? And no you don't have to register to see the forum that's not why I'm asking... just your thoughts on the theme. Wendy and Melissa if this is the wrong area, please use your new powers to move it...

I think it is real cute, but for me it is a 'bit in your face' and made my eyes start hurting after a few minutes.
As soon as I saw the 'herbs' sub-forum, I had to join, even though that wasn't your intention. I may just wait until after Easter to start reading it because of all the bright colors hurting my eyes

I saw that change last night when I logged in. It scared me, because for a split second I thought that I was in the wrong forum. LOL

I love all of the sub-forums for each vegetable type also. I thought about suggesting it for here but came to the conclusion that it would be too clinky with all of the other forums offered.
Oh and Muller's Lane Farm,
I just double quoted!!! Did you see that? Do you know how to do that on this forum? If not, I would be willing to show you and anyone else how to....

It works in tapatalk too. Looks nice but I have to change the colors somehow. It came up in vivid green and that hurts my eyes. I like the subforum design.

@trellis, I don't have the heart to tell you that I was in IT for almost 30 years before I retired (mostly mainframe & midframe computers) but I've done my share of html coding as well.
unless .......
You did this without getting into the BBCode, then YES, I want to know how you did it!! Please 'splain

Okay you computer geeks! Why is it......
At the top of the page there's a "REPLY" button which, when clicked, offers you all the whistles and bells, fonts, pics, upload, etc. The bottom of the page has "QUICK REPLY" button which, when clicked, doesn't offer you anything but a box. Maybe it's just me, but when reading a thread and wishing to reply, it's kind of a pain to have to scroll back up to the top to get the extras. Can't the reply buttons features be on the bottom of the page too? Just a suggestion. nudge...nudge....;-)

I really like your forum and have bookmarked for later. However, I do not like the background so much. It is too busy and made my eyes hurt. Sorry, K

Well gosh darn! Thanks KKB! I didn't see that. Duhhhhh! All these buttons! So many decisions! LOL
I really like this site. The forum is clean and crisp looking. Much better than 'that other place'.

I just checked out the change and I have to tell you, I actually liked the background that was there when I originally signed up for your site. It was a darker color than what you have now and I am not sure but I think that it was a picture of tomato vines or something similar. I thought that it was very nice.

@trellis, I have changed it back to our default theme... is that the one??? I am pretty sure that is the same background. I really just remembered that it was a darker shade of green and it depicted something growing. If not the same thing that I saw the other day it is just as nice and eye friendly.

Sorry for the eyestrain, but just so you know that there are 16 other themes to choose from, even a theme just like this one, but you have to be a member to choose them... Wendy if this is out of line here you can delete it, it's just something I thought should be mentioned.

Daylilydude, I registered for your forum. When I did, I could not come back to this forum. It said I had the wrong user name and or password. Sorry, but I closed my acct over there trying to figure out what happened. I used Possum as a user name and a different password than I use here. Yes, I do like the new background. It is MUCH easier on my eyes. Possum, I'm not sure but you could try using the same password for both forums... We feel abandon by you leaving... LOL!
