Forum background changes : Othor Games

» Tue Aug 24, 2010 9:44 pm

What banner? :unsure:

Ok, now I can see it. Probably takes a while and a few clicks of the "refresh" button. Looks fine to me, but kinda dark. It will probably make me sleepy when I stay up all night reading this forum. :biggrin:

The only fear I got is the big contrast between bright text and dark background. Contrast is very bad for the eyes if you're looking at something for a long time, which can happen in forums...
It looks nice and clean though.

Just wondering, is the nebula at the top a little low-res? I think I can see noisy-pixels

What banner? :unsure:

the background of the sites and the logo's at the top.

I like the new elderscroll one because the background is nice and dark and I can actually read most of the text now.

I liked the old one :sad:

I'm not seeing anything different :unsure2:

Had to kill Firefox's cache to see it.

Looks fantastic! Can't go wrong with dark and glossy.

Edit: That said, why not load up the old theme and list it in the theme selector as "Bethesda Softworks (Old)", eh?

We're talking about the forum right? It doesn't look any different.

Incredibly epic. Hated the picture on the top. Removed now. :happiness: :whistling:

EDIT: Just tried to read these forums and mine eyes hurt... Maybe the new background is what saves me from this damn forum addiction...

Big white Bethesda give me a big headache looking at it, however The Elder Scrolls does look pretty good, although I kinda miss the old style now.

Looks cool but it hurts the eyes on the long term.

They are working on a few things - give them time to sort everything.

Just changed for me. The white bethesda doesn't really bother me, and I'm loving the new elder scrolls sections. Now for the Fallout Section, it needs to be "New Vegatized".(Vay-Ga-Tized not Vegga-Tized, no need for a post-apocolyptic zombie veggies.)

Darker is good

Maybe too much black.

» Wed Aug 25, 2010 3:18 am

I see no change. What does everyone mean?

» Wed Aug 25, 2010 7:09 am

Its too dark for me. I'm sure I will get used to it though.

This was posted in CD a few minutes ago.

We're still making a few changes to it. Not final.

» Wed Aug 25, 2010 4:12 am

Eh. No big change really.

» Wed Aug 25, 2010 6:25 am

I liked the fact that the other showed snippets of the older games. I like banners with a history behind them.

» Tue Aug 24, 2010 5:22 pm

I love the Elderscrolls banner. The big white blob that is the new Bethesda could use some personality though. Outlined in black or something.

OR THE BLOOD OF INNOCENT VICTIMS.

What? :unsure:

» Tue Aug 24, 2010 7:46 pm

Is there any way to revert back to the old one?

» Wed Aug 25, 2010 2:38 am

The Bethesda just became smaller for me, looks much better now

In a way... Skyrim is the history. All the events of the previous games are connected in Skyrim

Change is good sometimes but I think the contrast is too strong. I know I can bypass the scheme in Firefox, but I honestly liked more the previous scheme.
