My new forum...

[Incredirobotwars]

I try to ignore the sh** that they type, but sometimes the just push me too far. There was no need for them to object to my forum. They could more easily just not go on it.

The advice given was practical. If you would like to continue thinking that everything you do is perfect, don't advertise anything you do. Keep it to yourself. As somebody who likes to see people reach their full potential, I will tell you how it can be improved if you inform me of its existence.

I only advertised it so that people could join. I don't think it's perfect, but I didn't ask for advice. It's not there so that it can be perfect. And when I DID follow your advice, people said that the colour scheme burnt there eyes, so I put it back to how it was. Therefore, I did listen to your advice, but it just didn't turn out as planned.

Yes, I think we all know what the point of advertising is.

I don't think it's perfect, but I didn't ask for advice.

I don't care that you didn't ask for advice. When I see something that needs improvement, advice will be given. Can't take the criticism? Keep it to yourself until you develop some thicker skin.

It's not there so that it can be perfect. And when I DID follow your advice, people said that the colour scheme burnt there eyes, so I put it back to how it was. Therefore, I did listen to your advice, but it just didn't turn out as planned.

So instead of tinkering with the color wheel and finding colors that work, you decided to give up and go with what you once had? With just a little bit of effort, you could have a forum that doesn't burn the eyes and isn't fugly. Just do some experimenting.

I'm trying to resolve the argument by explaining clearly what I think, but you just want to argue methinks. Fine by me.

And FYI, I spent HOURS experimenting. All the schemes hurt the eyes.

What argument, and how exactly are you trying to resolve anything? You've made no concessions. All you've done is cry about how terrible of people we are for daring to say your forum isn't as good as it could be.

And FYI, I spent HOURS experimenting. All the schemes hurt the eyes.

There are several explanations for that. I'll give you what I think the top three probable explanations are: 1) You didn't do it right. 2) Your monitor doesn't do a good job of displaying colors. 3) Your brightness is set too high.

[Incredirobotwars]

Well, how do I make concessions for this? I've said that I don't care about the colour scheme, and people DO say that it's good. I've said that I did take your advice, but it just didn't work out. If the only advice you give is about the colour scheme, then there is no point going on about it if I've tried. My monitor shows colours clearly, and it wasn't just me who thought it looked even worse from your advice.

You clearly didn't do it right.

You really should change the color scheme. Blue and orange would be awesome.

[G.K.]

What scheme do you guys see atm?

[Enigm@]

Eye burning scheme. Change to a black background and white text to sooth the eyes.

Tan, yellow, and a light green.

Not exactly...

Anyway use mostly subtle, light colors.  The text should be black, and keep one bold color for important shapes/headings/etc.

I'm no web designer but perhaps you can take some inspiration from my site.

Either way works...

Any graphics designer would hit you in the face for saying that.

Never, EVERY put paragraph text on a black background. Ever!

Sarcasm is hard to detect on the interwebz.

It's just that I don't like white backgrounds very much. I can tolerate them though.

You don't like anything anyways.

[Scorpion]

Right, Marklar's back.
If it is one of you guys, lay off please, there's no point in it and it's just annoying.

How do you know that?
