Thistle will do nicely, thank you.   :-*

Changing the online usernames to thistle got me thinking, and this is the result. ;)

Hmmm, it looks more like royal blue to my color-blind eyes.  I like all shades of blue and purple, so it looks sweet to me.  What I don't like is that the "Dark Shadows Forums" logo now looks squished.  And Collinwood looks as if somebody (Gerard Stiles, perhaps) stuck the house on a giant rack and s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d... I'm sure it's because I have my computer set at 9696 x 6969 or something like that...

It's so pretty MB!  Love the dark blue with the thistle.  Such a nice change of pace.  Ah, the stars changed to a pretty purple too.  That is so extra special.

Gothick:  I'm sure the picture just needs some height and width codes so it will fit in the space provided.  I'm sure MB will fix it eventually.

Such a nice change!  Great job!

The more I see it, the more I love it. I'd say it's a definite keeper. And if you hadn't suggested a color change for the users online, it might never have come about. So, there really shouldn't be any blame thrown your way - only thanks. [thumb]

I love the color! It comes out as purple with light lilac text on my screen. Beautiful and definitely a keeper.  :D

I love the new colors -- the deep blue background is like the ocean in the opening credits, and nicely complements the picture of Collinwood.  Also, the pale blue type is very comforting on the eyes.

The color scheme seems very appropriate overall for "Dark Shadows."
