A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Time to spruce up your page look?

I added 4 new "Style" sets to the existing ones today. The style sets determine the colors etc that you see our forum. If you want to take a look, just go to your preferences in your stuff and scroll down to "Your preferred stylesheet"
You can preview all of them and see if any strike your fancy. The new styles are:
Black and Gold
Coffee
Pastels
Konira

Wow what a difference in all of them!
I think I will try them all for a couple of days,, to see which ones or One my eyes like best,

Thanks Bill for another way to view the Gardenhelper!

I'm starting with the pastel and working my way into the more intense colors

I love the blue.. easy on my eyes too... seems larger to me which helps my old eyes a lot..
Thanks Bill..

I added one more... sunny_dropshadow

Ohhhhhhh I like this pastel so far,,, when I click on the gremlins, it's a transparent back ground No white box,, it threw me off for a second cuz I could still see my words behind the gremlins, COOOL!

I like the sunny_yellow drop too but I can't see the pink colored writing on the user boxes very well against the darker yellow,, but over all it makes for a "sunny Page"

How fun is THAT?!

I've always just used the default setting, but this was so fun, I've switched to Koniro (the blue one). I like it!

Thanks, Bill.

I've changed mine to pastel. I like the sunny one and the black and gold is pretty cool too.

I added two more.... Frosty and Legacy
There should be something for every taste now...

Oh Goody I have weeks to play with them until I decide

I made up a couple more last night... but they still need some editing...

Cindy Faye Cool colors!

I dumped one because the fonts didn't show.. wrong colors...

I don't remember which one that was,, I remember one I couldn't see Pink text colors too well,,

Glad it wasn't the pastel,, I'm liking it

I think I'll try Cindy Faye for a while,, It's appears so garden-y, earthy,, with the tones of Green for earth ( and aliens and And Blue representing Skies . and the Pinkish tone = girlie ( Imagination running a muck for me this morning,, )

Just posted and I see a blue is in the Box for reading post,,,, I love how it changes colors depending on what I'm doing ,, reading posting editing,, COOOOOOL BILL!!!!

I have never even looked at the preferences. I always use the one that was with the board when I joined. ITs soft, white and the beige boxes, Very Mellow and soothing. Okaay I will look at the other ones. :wink:

I did look at them all. But went back to the basic. I feel most 'at home' with what is here.

I too looked at them---and I am now with the pale yellow one---Like Tina, I am most comfortabel with what I am used to----For me it has more to do with the font size than the colors--

ah well I am told change is good,...one day I may talk myself into believing it

if I do I will change the color scheme/font size I use.

You can change the font size on any page of most PCs. I even do it on my daughter's laptop. I press the Ctrl button and then use the little scroll button on your mouse to enlarge or decrease the font size.
It isn't permanent so the next time you log in it needs to be redone. And it doesn't affect other sites like your email and things. You have to do each separately. But it is quick and easy.

thanks Tina!!!!

I guess it worked for you. Now I need a ctrl/scroll for my snail mail to make it easier to read too.

yep it did work for me, Tina. Sorry I am not so responsive of late. I am feeling better so ther is more housework & MIL "work" for me to do----and it is taking me longer than before to do all of this because I am not "used" to doing it---

I now have the pastel coloring--but I think I will likley go back to my usual one----the ubb something or other----

CindyFaye is too wild for me. I'm sticking with pastels.

I love the Cindy Faye one! When I first saw this post I went through all of the style sheets and was a bit disappointed that there were no green styled ones. I have a thing for green, you see. Thanks Bill!

Green???---Green??? Did someone say Green????

Why the one I am using has green on the left side of the screen--UBB something or another

I'm still using the Cindy Faye one,, this one and Pastel are my favorites

I'm trying the "UBBCentral" one and I love it. It's a pastel blue/green/gray a very soft color. I can't believe I haven't tried this before. Thanks Bill!!!!! What does ubbcentral stand for??

Very funny, the only bad I can think of is I spend too much time on here where I could go do something else, but I love that color.

I ahve switched to UBBCentral too!! I like it much!!!!!

I had the Cindy Faye for a while and Will go back to it later. I switched to the pastels again for a while.
It matches My Button and Avatar Better
