Koran Colours

[Tarkah]

so heres your chance to decide on what colours you want for Koran's new summer themed skin.

I think we're gonna keep the BG the way it is and not put pictures in it, cause i hate tiling. though if everyone fights against it then whatever lol

so colours?

[Della]

I like these colours a lot! Perhaps something with more green. I love olive greens against browns and tans a lot; with some yellows mixed in there. That would be great.

NO TILED BACKGROUND PLEASE. Something like this is great! Also a CSS that doesn't overlaap.

[Della]

Oooh ooh ooh and perhaps a darker background? I realized that a lot of peoples colours don't work on this one because it's too light.

[Shadowwolf]

YES! I agree with Della! The colors Della mentioned is perfect for a summer theme!

[Della]

Ya, ya? A nicely subtle change from the front page so peoples colours won't get screwed up but very different at the same time and summer and yaye!

[Tarmalo]

naa. its sooo different from Koran's original colors...if you guys want to change them they should be along the same guidelines of what it currently is. it would be OK to stretch it a little bit but what i think della has is a bit much....plus it looks a lot like what TS' theme is except paler. the Koran colors should be different and independent than that of TS. thats one of the reason why I joined Koran....is because I like the look of the pack page and the region of the pack.

So yeah. sure we can change it but we shouldn't be so drastic in our changes. It would be better if it was more subtle changes...more emphasized on what koran already has.

I agree with Della too. More greens. But I also think we should kept the "flow" or whatever that Koran already has. Because the Koran layout is a lot different then the other packs and I like it this way. Just different colors and a more "summer-ish" picture would be the best, I think. =)

[Tarmalo]

We shouldnt go with a summer theme...simply because its like fall...I see it as a fruitless effort. instead of a summer themed skin maybe just a season skin or half year skin or whatever you want to call it....but just not summer, because summer is well...over. school has started up for most of you, today is the last day of august....and the list goes on.

I think some change is needed to liven up our pack. add some stuff, enhance what we have, maybe go as far as to get people to be more active, you know...all that good stuff. but summer? no. tarkah's idea is brilliant....but this season's over.

[Alice]

Maybe a summer/fall theme then? Personally, I think we should stick to that, but I see your point Tarmalo. Summer is almost over and we're going into fall, however I think something along the lines of what Della was saying-- the greens and whatnot.
But all in all, I'd be fine with anything. I just think Koran should change up a bit. We've been using this skin for how long now? Before Alice even joined Koran under the name Thalia if I remember right. So, yes, a change would defiantly be good. Pretty much, anything is fine with me, but I think I'd prefer something summer or fall-ish.

[Della]

Huh. I thought we were looking for big change! No matter, I really like the idea of an autumnish layout, as well. Perhaps have 4 premade layouts that we set aside at summer and switch with the changing of seasons, so you don't have to make them when you don't have any spare time, but still have a consistent flow of new themes, which really livens the place up.

Whatever happens', I'd really like to have the Koran background a little darker so people's text colours will work better. I see this affecting a lot of members.

[Silverwren]

i like blue... what about light blue and the colour it is now, that would look good, with maybe a bit of ollive green.

[Shadowwolf]

If we're gunna go with a summer and fall color, i think it would look nice with dark greens that has splashes of lighter greens. A hint of brown and perhaps red, orange, and yellow works well. The green would look like the forest, and with the fall colors it might make it look alittle better......just a thought.

[Alice]

I'd prefer to only do a small change, but that's just me. Colors and picture and such. Stuff like that. ^^
Oooh, Shadow, the way you worded that made it sound wonderful! =) Kinda like a transformation from summer is fall, which is what we're in at the moment.

Yes, yes, a darker background. Please. Light blue looks horrible with this tan color.

[Kai]

I like the same sort of colors we have now- I think the brown scheme works well, maybe coupled with some matching greens, though like has already been said, it needs to be dark enough to accommodate the lighter posting colors [like mine. It doesn't even show up on this layout D:].

I like Della's idea of having a different scheme for every season, though it would mean a lot of work to make them, and I'm unsure if Tarkah would be up for that. An autumn scheme might be cool so long as it doesn't mimic Deor's existing [and as far as I know 'regular/permanent'] scheme.

Also... when we get this new theme, could we possibly do something about the Koran news box as well? I had Shunke add the scroll bar feature to it so that the text would stop spilling out of the box and onto the board below it, but the problem is back, and I know it's not just me that it's affecting. It makes reading the news box impossible, and the cbox near impossible, so the sooner we get that fixed, the better.
