Ashley Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 (edited) Different coloured schemes were suggested some while back (what's not to love about grey?) and I was on a creative bint last week so ladies and gentlemen I give you.... Pika! I am unashamedly on a Pokémon re-obsession at the moment and this combines that with my love of gaudy colours. Eevilmurray described it nicely as "like those websites which launched when Pokémon did" and that's kinda what I was going for. A bit over the top but in a fun childish way. Header thanks to GCTonyHawk64 It's-A-Me, Mario! A dark purpley scheme to counteract the Pokémon one. It has a starry background which I know at certain points doesn't look 'right' due to conflicting layers meaning it gets cut off mid-star but its the best we can do and I'm sure you'll agree overall it works quite nicely Header thanks to RedShell Now What? Well that's two over and done with and for future ones I am open to suggestions. I have a few ideas for what I want to do but any specific colours or themes (obviously Nintendo related, no Halo :p) speak now or forever hold your peace. If you have any issues with these schemes please let me know in this topic, and with a screenshot would be awesome. Enjoy Edited July 12, 2009 by Ashley
Happenstance Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Ive just switched to the Mario one, looking good. Now I want a Phoenix Wright one!
Gizmo Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Holy crap Pika destroys my eyes. Also, The pokemon on the title bars obscure some writing occasionally. (eg the "Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread" is lost beyond "Viewing") Mario is too dark for me. Boring old Stretchable it will have to be.
Ellmeister Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 A mii related one? I'm not sure of a theme but just thought you might come up with someting nice Looking good Ash..I mean the themes not you.
Ashley Posted July 12, 2009 Author Posted July 12, 2009 SHENMUE!!! Not on a Nintendo console....yet :p Ive just switched to the Mario one, looking good. Now I want a Phoenix Wright one! Thanks And PW is a good idea, I have no OBJECTIONS! Holy crap Pika destroys my eyes. Also, The pokemon on the title bars obscure some writing occasionally. (eg the "Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread" is lost beyond "Viewing") Mario is too dark for me. Boring old Stretchable it will have to be. Yeah the Pokemon one isn't for anyone with too sensitive eyes (and this is toned down from what it was before ). And I'm aware about the extended writing but I figure most people will know what is is...or not particularly care no? If more people have a problem with this let me know anywho Schemes in the future will be more of a middle ground. A mii related one? I'm not sure of a theme but just thought you might come up with someting nice Looking good Ash..I mean the themes not you. I do have an awesome idea regarding that actually. Stay tuned.
flameboy Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 I've never once used a different theme but put up the super mario galaxy one and love it...its gorgeous kinda miss the awesome site banners though so not sure if I will stick with it and the grey is quite simple and none descipt makes it better for viewing at work...
darksnowman Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 In before Donkey Kong Country. (What you mean no one else was gonna say it first?!?)
gaggle64 Posted July 12, 2009 Posted July 12, 2009 Well I assume a Brawl one will be forthcoming obviously - any chance of some Starfox? Maybe in the style of the original for us grizzled SNES veterans? Y'know, when men were men, and I mean real men with faces that grew out of their beards. Loving the Pokemon theme, BTW.
MoogleViper Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Can you make a green forum scheme so we don't have to read ReZ's posts? Maybe a Yoshi themed one?
ReZourceman Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Megaphailz. I tried the Pika and it looks fucking awesome.
Mr_Odwin Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 I would really like a minimal mobile/iPhone/iPod Touch friendly theme like this.
Ashley Posted July 13, 2009 Author Posted July 13, 2009 Mhm raining did suggest one like that to me last night. Will get onto it after I sort out some real life stuff that kinda went on the backburner ^_^
Raining_again Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 I would really like a minimal mobile/iPhone/iPod Touch friendly theme like this. Truth! Mhm raining did suggest one like that to me last night. Will get onto it after I sort out some real life stuff that kinda went on the backburner ^_^ Anything to skive work ^^;
Dyson Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 That Pikachu theme is AWESOME. And I find it highly contradicting after poking fun at my profile. On the plus side my profile merges perfectly with the new scheme
Ashley Posted July 13, 2009 Author Posted July 13, 2009 ORLY? Your page as you have it and your page without customisations. Its all about subtlelty :p Mobile scheme is on route
navarre Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Personally love them. I've got the pokemon one on now.
Raining_again Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 ORLY? Your page as you have it and your page without customisations. Its all about subtlelty :p Mobile scheme is on route <3<3<3 Love you ashmon!
Roostophe Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 ORLY? Your page as you have it and your page without customisations. Its all about subtlelty :p Mobile scheme is on route "Log In As This User?" eh... Log into ReZ's profile and post something sensible. Ai dares ya!
gaggle64 Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Idea: Super Mario Brothers movie theme. You know you want too.
Dyson Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 So unfortunately my eyes couldn't handle the Pokemon one for a day; and I've had to switch to the SMG one, and I've instantly found myself enjoying N-E about 20x more again as a result of not having to flinch ___________ Problem spotted! On the SMG theme the red/green/blue names are way too bright. Could do with turning down a few tones, especially the staffer names
Nintendohnut Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 These are completely awesome. Now using the Mario Galaxy one after a few minutes of eye-pain inducing Pika theme. I wanted to keep it but I feel it would look a little too odd if a yellow glow was eminating from my laptop all the time. This is my first change for a long while, I've had the 'Cube Europe Black' theme for as long as I can remember. I am excited about the prospect of the 'mobile/iPhone' theme that you're creating, hope it's funky!
