Bland as it gets, like living in a subdivision

But it will have to do for now.
At least it's functional.
There's a way to move the whole thing to a page on Waterdog Journal, that way it looks like my grunge thing I have going on over there, but it's a lot of work to achieve.
I'll have to live with it for now.

simple and boring, but easy on the eyes

It was a shocker when I refreshed from getting on the site earlier this morning that is for sure. I thought it redirected me to another site.

Yep. Not a fan at all. Make it black and white that way there is at least some contrast... All this blue.... blech like a tacky nursery for an infant son. I've experienced 3 of those in the last 7 years and now this place too.
You should get Jungle Jim to design your forum because his is sweet.

It could be much worse. You should see all the ones I passed on. Is JJ still around?
Too much contrast hurts my eyes. You'll have to get used to this for now.

Are you happy now?
I guess it doesn't matter which one I pick. Not sure I like this one. Too hard to tell when someone has left a new comment.
I did like this one I found with unicorns and dancing fairies. In pink.

I liked the nursery room blue better.
I think you should make it hot pink for Ed.
Isn't there an option where the user can set their own color scheme? One of the phbb boards I was on had it....I can't remember which one though

I barely know how to get this far.
Back to the blue, I agree.

Yep, his site is awesome.

So good I almost have epileptic seizures when I go there...
Seriously the blue is so bad. I have a phbb installed on my blog maybe I can find something for you...

Had a black one up here, you must have missed it.
I don't want to spend too much time on this. I'd rather be looking into how to migrate this over to WDJ. I have what I need. I don't want to screw things up, so it could take awhile. I'm also trying to talk the designers of my blog into doing a style for phpbb.
I'm just trying to make you feel at home Ed. Add in some projectile vomiting, exploding shits and runny noses and we're good to go.
If you find one you like, send me a link. Pink teddy bears work.
