Color schemes

Ed's techincolor nightmare- Eye burner (I though my moniter tube would burn out)

Normal EoFF color scheme- Boring

I like how you guys added the quick reply forum view but I think we need to add 1 or two more user changable colorschemes, like a nive black and red, or a Matrix style Green and black.

It's just a thought

The problem with insane numbers of color schemes is that each one needs its own set of templates, and that means I have to reinstall all of the template hacks each and every time.

I already hate doing all of my work in triplicate. Besides, the EoFF color scheme is a tradition.

Yay for tradition. I likes the color scheme.

The colourscheme we have here is part of Eyes on Final Fantasy. Boring? Maybe, to some. But once you come down to it, this site is far easier on the eyes than any other site I've ever been to, it's got the perfect happy medium for relaxing your eyes. In my opinion, anyway.

I think that offering more colour schemes for EoFF would be like Ferrari offering more colour schemes for their F1GP cars. Ruins the distinction of it all.

Oh, and Bleys' reason is there too, I guess...

If it takes extra maintenance for each color scheme, why do you use ed's? Does anybody use it?

I think a nice red and black scheme would make me smile, a matrix style theme would work.

It's not about just making you smile, it's about making everyone smile. And mostly making Bleys happy.

I like the EoFF default. Red and black is ugly, in my opinion. Green and black is nice, but I look at that all day at work, and it gets old really fast. :P

Another problem is all the people who use coloured fonts to suit one background won't work with another background.

...

It's been asked before. Basically, the answer is no.
