The member ranks are default. I'll change them later. You people have no idea how many settings there are!

I'm seriously considering changing the scheme from orange to blue. I'll switch the color associations of Learn and Discuss. It's just that the orange on these forums is looking pretty obnoxious and hard on the eyes. I'll see...

Blue works great. That was very quick.

No orange? But orange is good!

I don't know what I'm going to do, now. I'll figure it out. Perhaps if I can figure out a more subtle way to use orange.

Aha! Looks like I found a good combination.

the grey/green color behind the timestamps and message number indicator could be a little darker. On my laptop screen runing linux the color gets a bit light and makes the forground color hard to read at certain angles. I think just adding a touch more green to the color might help. I kind of have to strain to read it at those angles but its not bad enough where I'm desperate for a change. Just thought I'd let you know my experiance.

tbaleno,
For now I'm not going to touch the colors. I'll get back to it when I take care of the essentials, but I was just informed of a slightly major problem! The mileage database no longer syncs with the new forum database! Whoops... that means new members can't log in there. I need to take care of that first, as well as fix the homepage.

So much work! And to think I payed for this! haha
