If this is not a fluke then please keep it this way.

The brighter colors take some getting used to, but it looks good.

Status: offline 		IT'S TOO BRIGHT! JEEZ, I JUST CAME UP FOR AIR FROM UV WITH ITS DARK BLUES AND DOGGONE NEAR WENT BLIND!

Actually, I don't think it's too bad, but when you get yellow smilies in it, you feel like you're walking down the housewares aisle in Wally World (WalMart fer them who ain't Arkies).

I suggest doing the background in a soft pastel rather than the "multiple shades of offwhite."

I think this means that Matrix is moving on from the first UV and SPWAW rush and trying to establish an identity for future endeavors. Shoot, it's still too bright!

I will now proceed to entangle the entire area.

So your only light source at nights is the monitor? Thats really bad for the eyes anyway, even with toned down colors. Same counts for the TV set ;)

The bright colours make it cheery, but the darker original greens were like the comforting tones of the night (ok I am something of a creature of the dark too in some ways).

This can sounds funny, but I'll have more difficulties for sure, from now on, to read the forum at home.
My pc is in our bedroom, and I'm usually on till late, when my wife goes to sleep.She can bear with a darkish monitor, but i'm not so sure what she will say when see the whole room lighted up by this ultrabright pages :rolleyes:

If Resisti's wife is anything like mine was, she's probably happy he's readin' forums instead of reachin' for 'em.

Status: offline 		...as we're generally dealing with topics that involve death & destruction. The games themselves are best dealt with on their own. For a general discussion, let's tone it down a bit. This color scheme doesn't suit tired eyes at all. I work on a PC all day in my job. When I want to talk, I want to feel like my opinion is welcome. This format doesn't do it. Addendum: The harshness has been reduced. That's much better. I can live with that. Thanks for paying attention, guys.
