JamieP Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 The Blue is just the index. Grey writing on black background is perfect i think, very easy on the eyes, this is far to bright. http://www.spracingforum.com/forums/showthread.php?163-New-SP-Project-Cowboy-Bebop-s-4.7L-TT-Supra-visits-for-some-quot-minor-quot-work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 That is spot on Jamie, this place gives me a bad head when I'm on for any time Thats probably more to do with having to read some of the inane posts than the colour scheme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Looks like SF have sorted the background colour within hours As I say, Mawbs does this for the love of the club. I'm sure if you all wanted to pay him for his services he would do the colour change quickly. I would have thought around 3 hours work including testing at around £80 an hour would do it. So club together and give Mawbs £240 and I'm sure it will be done quickly. Or we can all wait for him to find some time in his busy schedule to fix this.

mawby Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Please don't forget that I did create a new colour scheme and the new colour scheme generator reset all of our templates which wasn't very nice of it. It's still on my to-do list and now all of the calendars have gone that will give me a bit more free time to try this again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I think its because I'm a programmer I thought it would be as simple as changing a colour in a style sheet, I actually find it hard to believe that this version of vbb doesn't have a plugin which allows preset schemes to be selected for about 10 mins work, I guess that's my over simplified view fo the world for ya , if I wrote a BB system it would have those features Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mawby Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 There is now a blue colour theme available. It's kind of a mixture of the original two blue colour schemes we have. It's not perfect yet so if you spot anything that looks odd then let me know and I'll see what I can do. I hope to release a new colour scheme each week but it will depend on work commitments.

mawby Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 We could never have a true mono theme because of the images / smilies / avatars... not unless.... hmm.... let me think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mawby Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I have made a few tweaks to the blue scheme and consider it finished unless anyone points out something wrong with it. I've also added a new Black & White scheme. This one still needs a little work and I need to create some new editor icons for it as the current Bold, Italic, etc buttons cannot be seen very well. Hopefully I'll get a chance to finish it off tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mawby, but wouldn't it just be easier to have a white background, like the default, and making all the current blue bits, black/grey, etc?

Hopefully I'll get a chance to finish it off tomorrow. Lee, no need to do that. Edit the CSS manually. Search for .editor_controls and add a new element called "background: gray" - then it'll match the text entry box and the icons show nicely. Save you a bucket of time. Also for the pagination - find: .pagination span a.popupctrl { height: 15.99px; padding-left: 18px; padding-right: 4px; .pagination span a { background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #090909; border: 1px solid #303030; font: 13px then add this to both color: white; EDIT - this is for the B&W theme only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mawby Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Editing the CSS manually... dirty boy, there's a stylevar for that. I did add a background colour to the icons but it looked a bit naff. Anyway, whatever I do it's a job for tomorrow now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
