I like the purple accents! Very Wimbly.
Well, I should say that I like the brighter purple more than the darker purple. It 'pop's more against the darker background.

Thanks. I'm working on making them less ugly, and seem to have made them *more* ugly ;D

The border as is is fine with me. Just as long as it isn't *too* noticable. LOL, the rest of you can feel free to jump in at any time now EDIT: I like the lighter border more.

Is it better with dark purple or light purple borders? It's dark at the moment. I'll change the scroll bar too

If you don't already know how, I should send you a PM explaining how to play with the colours so that you can play too if you want next time This is one of the few things I like to do, but I can share ;D

Agree with RF, as a general rule the lighter purples are better than these darker ones.

I won't begrudge you one of the more fun board tasks

But the dark one is okay for links? You can make links and visited links different colours, but I don't like how that looks How about white boarders like RF suggested?

I don't like making links and visited links a different color, either. I kinda like the first lighter purple you used, but it's nothing I'd come to blows over This border is okay as well.

I used to be really awful at this too. You should have seen the first few schemes I think you may have! A friend on another board threw me a bone and sent me the general blue and general green. I altered the general blue, but kept the green the same. I figured out what the heck everything did, though, so i'm not afraid of messing things up royally like I used to ;D

Oh well, you inspired the idea somehow ;D I like the white borders., it keeps things simple. I don't like this colour of purple, though. Too bright. I guess we could comprimise and I'll leave a light purple in for links and a dark one for visited links?

That light color was a bit too bright, but there was one you found that was just right. Whatever I kinda like having a colored border, though. Things look a bit undefined right now. But if I get outvoted, I'll get used to it.

The scroll bar has only changed on one page? Oh, and just say no to a white scroll bar

The scroll bar has only changed on one page? I fixed that! That was a very funny oops. I was hoping nobody would notice ;D I'm thinking no to the purple one too, but meh. I can't decide if this place is horribly ugly or sort of funky.

Maybe the scroll bar should be green? I'm getting colour codes from here www.go2share.net/colours.htmA lot of colours are really ugly ;D Um, I made the border light again, but I don't think is the same colour I had it before

I like this dark purple scroll bar, personally.

The yellow border was a freak accident, but I think it works... I might just have horrific taste ;D

all these cols are making me sleepy! gotta hit the hay... I shall wake up tomorrow morning to see what you've come up w! wh borders are good! purple still a little illegible like the alternating cols and still like the clicked links a different col ;D scroll bars in diff cols good too! I like! I always used to change the cols on any PC I worked at [at different offices where I freelanced] and people w come by and say WHOA, how come your PC has diff cols? I'd say, cos I changed them fr the boring defaults to my own col scheme... some peops had no clue about changing these things... duh! and dull!!

It was purple the first time I changed it, but right at the moment it is yellow. It looks white to me *shrug* So, I don't really care I think the lighter colors work better than the darker ones.

can you create your own new cols?? Sadly not. That would be fun! Only hackie and I have the buttons to change them, but we're happy to hear input! If you have suggestions for a particular scheme sometime, just hook us up to the right html codes and we'll give it a go ;D
