hey, Did smb change the colors of the mega-tokyo forum site or is my browser messing up all the colors? If somebody changed the colors please bring old colors back, these new colors are definitely not good for eye health and readibility. Of course this is my idea, I can still wear sunglasses while reading threads. :P

Hey, to shout out of the page I think it is a good choice but if you want to just flow smoothly into somebody's thoughts it will be nicer to use softer font colors on dark color background. I bet after reading with these texts for one hour and your head will be in the mouth of explosion. Since there will be a very sudden change between your keyboard light reflection and monitor light reflection(Im talking about this view) your eyes will get halted while trying to optimize amount of light entering into your eyes as your are typing and looking at screen. Again this is my thought, I am using my sunglasses but I would rather not. ;D

so you want darker colours? im leaning toward a more grey (like the background colour, than the pale blue of the msg board boxes....)

The colors arn't bad, I may not think it's the best design, but it's better than having those old worn out colors.

Actually, i like the change but i think there needs to be more contrast. anything with black text should have a paler background.

It's way too bright. A change in layout now and then's a good thing, but I see spots all over my screen now :-X

Would it be hard for you to transform a Boardnation template into a design template for MT? I could give you the template for http://users.boardnation.com/~ewboard if you'd want to.
I think I did a pretty decent job on that, but no-one's using it. :(

my personal opinion is that I don't like the colors. Sorry but I don't :-\
