Is it just me or is anyone else finding the RR scheme a bit dated now? i love the layout, the style , everything, its just a bit tired.... especially when visited alot....., i guess it makes it easier to navigate, but does anyone else feel its time for a change? or even just a different colour scheme? Obviously easier said than done as i know all you mods have lives to lead the same as the rest of us.....

Yes, that would be nice. I guess you know you've answered your own question in the closing line of your post though don't you? ;D

Well, how about if a member made a new scheme, packaged it up in a CSS and it was just a case of replacing the old style sheet? I mean, HTML isn't rocket science...

Its a brand identity, look at VZi, instantly recognisable from the colour scheme, they change the top left image to event related ones (St Paddys day for example) the text VZi isn't there, but you know its still the same place

I actually stopped using two forums that 'modernised' because the whole layout made my eyes bleed. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

I'm sure it'll all be different when Proboards release a new version... *sigh* ... We're getting some new pages on the main site,.. keep an eye on the top bar for changes However colour + logo = brand. Which ain't changing. This site is this colour scheme for a reason, blue is a calming relaxing colour (for most people ).

Site is perfect ;D

i like that this forum is 5 years behind everywhere else in terms of appearance and features. its a retro forum don't you know but in all seriousness, it makes it much more usable on a slow (dongle) connection, or on a phone. i simply cant use driftworks or rodsNsods since theyve 'upgraded' as all the pages time out before they load as they're so much exteranious guff on them.

WHS^^^ I like the colour scheme of the board and the overall appearance. It's easy to read unlike a lot of forum boards, nice simple layout (for nice simple people like me ;D) Only alteration I might mage would be a garage/gallery on the site. Not to replace the projects threads or any other, just an addition

I like the format - nice, simple, useable interface. The colour scheme is great too. I realise we're at the mercy of Proboards though - if they decide we're in for a major overhaul, there ain't a whole lot we can do... unless the standalone forum gets a resurrection. What happened to that? Looked good in Beta testing!
