Colour schemes
« on: 05 Mar 2009, 12:19:34 pm »
OK, what's with the fancy colour scheme? Just because the 'special people' have gone blue in the background at SETI, doesn't mean we have to follow everything Berkeley does here..... ;D

As it happens, yes I do quite like it, along with the promotion to Alpha status - better than that boring grey the Betas got. Only problem is, in the UK Blue is associated with a certain political party whose attitudes I profoundly disagree with - but let's not go into that here.

Lol!  Didn't even pay attention to Berkeley changes on forum.  Oh, yes..."lovely".  Much more important that a properly working BOINC client it seems  ::).  However, on this one, the board background in box es on front page is "blue" w/ most script in orange or colors close to it.
Just trying to break-up the monotony a bit for easier visibility, especially on the list of members online/last 24 hours which is getting longer ;).
Unfortunately, nothing more exciting than that.

You guys are a piece of work  :P.

I prefer dark blue too.....but it bleeds into background & ya can't read it on here very well.  ;)

Re: Alpha.... Just like the real business world....same job, same pay....different title on business card  :P
In all seriousness (which I seem to be lacking today  :D)....a better definition of the type of testing performed.

If you squint your eyes while looking at the 'Online User's' Box, it looks kindof like a box of 'smarites' .... mmmm 'smarties'

Nice  :P  There's always "Pink" that would convey a certain universal love & acceptance ala "rama, rama, ding, ding".
I heard it's considered a rather masculine color in Europe?  LMAO  :D  :D  :D

Pre-release(Alpha) wasn't gold, but a dull grey...such an injustice as it wasn't at all like the colorful folks they really are.  ;D

Purple is pretty cool, I Like that one too...but it does blend into dark background somewhat.  If I change to a lighter shade though...it glows like neon, YUCK!
