The Interguild's color scheme has been revamped! If you were here when we released the site nearly 7 months ago, I said that the current layout was ridiculously simplistic because I wanted to save time and that it was faster to work with, and I also said that I would make a better layout when I got the chance. Well, now it's here, and this is only the first stage of the layout revamp, since only the colors have changed. One day I will redesign the entire template.
But if you don't like the much darker layout, you can go to your Account Settings page and change the Layout back to the lighter colors. Anyway, now the site looks much better. User Comments (31) | Quirvy |

Who doesn't like the darker layout better than the light one, I mean, come on!

I think the blue and grey look really awesome together, but I think the logo doesn't fit with the other fonts. I think maybe it should be less blocky or make the forum, comps, galleries.... stuff a more angular font.

The logo is just as fine as it is. | | Livio |

yeah I didn't put as much effort into the logo as I wanted to, but for now I'm just using that as a front. In the next few days I'm gonna mess more with the overall background of the page, and make a real logo. If I wanted to put a cooler font for the quick links at the top of the page (which would be really cool, actually) I'd have to make images for them and I hate making image quick-links for some reason probably because of bad memories of them. anyway, thanks for the ideas. | | Ckjr |

Its Uber-cool. Then i remembered this interguild stood out as one of its kind against the other boring and uninteractive forums i've ever seen. | | Yaya |

The gold in the sidebar and other gold that color is a tad too bright.

I don't think so. It looks completely fine to me.

we can make the new posts sign bright pink instead of gold, so that you'll have to be active of blind.

'Bmwsu' said: The gold in the sidebar and other gold that color is a tad too bright. you think that's bright? I actually made the gold more subdued and more toned down to make it match darkness of the layout. lol You're lucky I didn't go with old-Interguild gold. Maybe you'll get used to it.
and yeah it does remind you a lot about the old forums doesn't it? basically we were planning on coming up with a whole new color scheme, and when that failed I decided to see if maybe I could improve the old one, and look how cool it came out. | | Haily |

I've designed a new background image for the layout. Let me now what you think. =) | | jazz |

The font color options look rather strange. And the default color shows black when looking at the options. | | Livio |

you're right. and it also depends on your browser since every browser handles css styles of form elements differently | | Sefro |

It looks pretty sharp! Yeah, the sides needed something. They just looked like big, empty space. | | Bmwsu |

The background is terrific - at last, a really good layout for the new site! As the Americans would say: GOOD JARB! | | Livio |

Update: News posts look cooler and without avatars, but also without all that empty space. You may have to Ctrl+F5
you know even though the old layout is kinda ugly, going back to it sure is nostalgic. (because every time I make a change on the site, I have to make sure it works on both layouts) | | Harumbai |

What does Ctrl+F5 do?
