New Color Scheme

[Bojangles]

I'm wanting a new color scheme, background, etc... Let me know what ideas you have.

[Bojangles]

Honestly, as of right now, I'm leaning towards Black and Gray. Either that, or blue, black and red.

How about a black background with grayscale photo elements with some red accents.

Not the black, blue and red, that's been done before >.>

That's what I'm leaning towards. Any other ideas?

Bo -

The idea that I was talking about earlier, for the Black Background, and you asked for details, I wasn't sure if you saw my answer or not, so I'll give you the details of what I was talking about:

Basically, my idea was to make the Background of the site just straight Black, and then, where you have the Names of threads and categories listed, which is currently like, Red with some text, you could make that Orange and Green.

Currently there is a theme which is neat, but at the same time, the whole forum here, is mostly centered. So when you look at this site, you see everything in a centered manner like the threads for example, all show up in the middle of the site. It blocks the images quite a bit, and I think that's because it's damn near impossible to line up images and content in a way that neither treads on either, and I know how that is because I've been building websites and things for a long time, so it's REALLY hard to sort of make them both look right.

I think if you basically took the background you have right now, and made it just Black, and then had the "Titles" where it says "Talk Horror" in white, and "Horror Talk for All Horror Fans" in Red, that could be made into a Vibrant Neon Green color, and then the one after it, a nice Orange color.

I personally think that Black with Orange and Green go well together, but that's an opinion, so I'm not sure if you'd like it or not, but it would look nice I think.

I'll make a quickie image that just shows the colors, and that way you can kind of get an idea of what I mean. If you'd like, I can also track down images for "Night of the Living Dead" for you as well, and I was saying to you already how that movie is Public Domain, so you can use all the images you like without any legal issues, and using the Black And White Original, it would go along with the overall Black / Orange / Green color Theme without drawing any attention away from anything.

Basically you could have the images, and they wouldn't take away from the color, and the color wouldn't tread on the images either

OK, I know this isn't the coolest picture ever or something, but basically, I wanted to just show how a Black background looks with these colors on them. I mean ti's very simple looking but it also doesn't straight the eyes either, and I think it would be neat to have a color similar.

The first part I showed was with a Green color (I didn't this thing VERY simply, so it's not like, good really lol) but anyway, I showed a few different strokes with Green, the some with Orange, and then I also thought about Red and Blue, so I just added some of both colors to the Black to show how it could look if the Background was Black because you already have a lot of Red on the forums, and, I think that would look neat too if you wanted to keep the Red.

If you like, I could probably try to make something that isn't just a color example, and doesn't suck so much lol, like maybe a Black Canvas, and then add some Orange and Black, and then add in some Red Blood drops or something.

Anyway let me know, but I'm up for helping if I can. I'm just in no way a great graphics person. And from what I've read, we have a BUNCH of members here who are and could probably do a WAY better job than I could.
