    Default Your thoughts on current default style?

    There are currently 2 styles to choose from. The default if you haven't manually changed it is the blue style. The original out of the box, with a few DP changes, is the all white one. This poll is regarding the blue style which I've worked most on in the hopes of adding the recommended changes from members and staying as our default style.

    If you like it, that means you don't want any changes. If you specify you like it, but want changes, make those changes known in this thread. If you hate it, and want something completely different, please let me know specifically what you would rather see.

    Here is a link to all the "free styles" available on vB.org. If you're adventurous enough to go through them, and see one you want me to add as an option, post a link here.

    http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=247

    There are also "premium" styles out there, if one chooses to search on their own. Do a Google search on "vbulletin styles" or "premium vbulletin styles". If someone found a great one, and the majority agreed, I'll pony up and buy a premium theme.

    Voting no, that you don't like it and would rather see something else, and then not leaving any comment whatsoever = your vote doesn't count

    I like it. It keeps the traditional blue, while lightening it up. Good for my mood and vision.

    I like it fine the way it is. And I don't think you should pay out of your pocket for a premium style.

    Unfortunately, sometimes a premium theme is what it takes to please the masses. I paid $29 for the one you're seeing now, and can have a custom skin designed for about $500. How much you wanna bet that not EVERYONE would be pleased anyway. I just want it at a point where it looks professional for the first time visitor, different than the rest of the boards out there, and in a color scheme which allows all readers to easily read the text.

    Whoa- $500?! I believe the board looks professional. I also find the colors appealing and not hard on the eyes.

    I am getting so tired of all the black backgrounds out there. I suspect they all think they look edgy, when in fact they tend to look depressing and unoriginal.

    My favorite color is black, but NOT for a website background! I prefer a site to be a little lighter, with shades just dark enough to take away the glare.

    I like black, too. As I sit here, I am wearing an all- black button down shirt and a black bra.
