I get what you're saying...but I've gotta say I like the skin the way it is! I find it really easy on the eyes, there's nothing worse than having to stare at a brightly coloured site that hurts your eyes and gives you a headache! I think the colour is soothing, and is responsible for the chilled out atmosphere in the forum (Colour Therapy is big bucks you know?)! Maybe if it was brighter, people would be more...volatile!!!

I have to say that I agree completely with SpiritedSen. I've probably got permenant eye strain after spending ages of the World of Warcraft forums; who use some awful grey background and white writing. It isn't half as calm and tranquil as this site, and (it might just be me), after reading it I get headaches...

What sort of colours were you thinking of? Perhaps keep the same background colour and text, but liven up the borders with little Ghibli characters?

hehe... what do other people think?

i really like it the way it is. its so peacefull. only the angel girl soaring atop the page. though perhaps the odd wee baby totoro would be cool . though it might mess with the lines a bit.

hehe the odd wee baby totoro...the white one or the blue one? cuz i think the blue one is chibi-totoro, and the white one is chu-totoro...

yeah, that would be cool.

I have a green totoro keyring! I love it, straight from Japan. I like the colours of this forum but a little change won't hurt anything.. including my eyes!

I don't have a keyring, but I have the most awesome Totoro cushion that I got off EBay, brand new from Japan, bagged and with all the labels on...perfect!! And only £14.99, including postage! Bargainous or what!!?? It's pretty big too, 15" tall (just a bit smaller than the real Totoro, hey??!! )

Agreed, for some reason my eyes can only take a certain number of photons a day, beyond that it's certain headache! This is a nice peaceful color to look at, maybe a little less grayish, but not brighter please!! Besides, the messages and picks are what really matters!
By the way, UO's avatar is absolutely hilarious (I just had to write that!)

I read this post when you posted it...and I've only just worked out where the pic is you're talking about...it's SO blurry, I didn't even know what it was of, it's only just clicked!
Totoro's would be cool, or Spirited Away (but I'm biased on that front!)

only a suggestion but what about a long banner with all the different ghibli faces going across it... but totoro w/ chibi totoros are good as well!!

Two words:

HOT. PINK.

Ahem.

And you think I'm joking


Posted by arren18 on 09.19.2006, 02:34 PM:

 

Maybe if there were other skins, and a profile option to choose which one you use?

Generally the codes are long and they dont work on all browsers.
