Board colours changed
Post by admin on Feb 1st, 2012, 1:25pm

I've been finding this board's colour scheme a bit dark, so I've tried to refresh it with some brighter shades. Let me know if you prefer the new look or the original one (or something else).

Hi Richard,

Um, it's certainly brighter! grin

It wouldn't be *my* choice (a bit too much of a shock to the system), but I'll live with it if it brightens your day (and those of others).

Best wishes,

D

I'm open to suggestions for alternatives. I lack any kind of skill when it comes to colour choices - I leave all interior design decisions to my wife! I'm not even sure my colour vision is perfect, because we often disagree about what to call colours.

All I know for sure is that I didn't like the old, dark, default colour scheme.

Hi Richard,

Did you change it again? It feels much more restful this morning, so either I am in a better mood, I am getting used to it, or you have found a better combination. It feels more brown/sandy, and less yellowy-orange (I won't argue with your wife over colours either! wink )

Best wishes,

D

There's no 'sandbox' or other way of previewing the colours before you finalise them, so it's entirely possible that you've seen more than one attempt whilst I've been fiddling, depending on when exactly you looked.

As of now (Friday 3rd) I'm not planning any more changes.

Richard.
