I'd forgotten there was an option to change it. I've used red since it was implemented, but took a gander at the blue and bolted back to red ASAP!

The first thing I do when I bring up the forum, well, after the slideshow, which has become a must for me, is to see what's up in the Recent Posts. It drives me crazy when all that's listed are Caption This items. Many times I feel that I may have missed a good post and I don't always have time to dig into Current Talk or Calendar Events, etc. Not that I'm complaining, this board has been a lot of fun over the years, despite my lack of posts. Your posts, in particular, retzev, are always interesting.

Thanks, John!

Cool avatar. You should check it out in the blue, BTW. Looks much cooler, they all do actually. They don't get those white borders on the south and east sides.

I find the text easier to read with the blue, too.

Keep posting  :)

I haven't tried the blue but, I will most likely stick with the blood red since it seems well, just somehow more appropriate.  [batang]

I had to vote for the red. I like the blue, but there's something about the dark red scheme.... I find it very DS-ish, I guess. ;)

I find that the red compliments my Quentin set rather well. :)

I like the red because it reminds me of the curtains in the drawing room at Collinwood.  It does not remind me of blood, which is a good thing, because I faint at the thought of blood.

Once we switch over to SMF 1.1, I'm going to introduce a purplish/lilac/white theme that I've been working on off and on - and hopefully a greenish theme that I have some ideas for but haven't started working on yet. And the looooong anticipated return of the Members' Archive will have a gold/red theme with sort of museum feel to it. But don't ask me when any of them will actually debut because, well, I have no idea at this point.  ;)  It would be nice if there were more than 24 hours in a day and I didn't have to sleep at all, but unfortunately...

I secretly planned it that way.  :D

It's nice to see that you're incorporating the colors of all the Teletubbies.  ;D
