| I agree, I also like it, but I feel it might be easier to read if it were still lighter.

| All of the other forums that I frequent...with more traffic. Are Black background with white letters. I've gotten used to it and prefer it. I still like DT either way. I've gotten used to the light style here so I really don't care too much. |

| I do prefer a darker background, even if the text is darker as well. The computer screen is not a piece of parchment paper, and I have trouble with my eyes after staring at pages that are completely white.
BTW, for anyone that commented on my signature, the background is actually a map of Europe that shows the progress of certain viking invasions (appropriate seeing as my dogs name is going to be Odin). In photoshop, it's combined with grudge textures to age it a bit. The black font was duplicated and then a Gaussian blur was applied to give that smoky feel. It's a bit hard to see, I didn't really intend for anyone to be looking at it that intently but... Just in case anyone was wondering.

I'll have to remember Gaussian. I play with PS a little but not nearly enough. |

| | Admin Guy | I've enabled the new style so you can let me know if there are any bug or weird things happening, I have quite a lot of work still to do things like the thanks button needs adding and quite a few other stuff, but it will help me to fix things as I go along. |

| Would like to see a spiffy header (taking any volunteers?) ... I do like the new colors, looks like a doberman forum now!

| I did not vote in the poll because I really like the tan and brown. It is easy to read and matches my red Dobie. LOL
