I have changed the style back to Night Elf upon request of multiple users. You know you can change it, right? Scroll down completely and take a look at the bottom left of the browser's screen. There should be a drop-down menu there.

Thank you. The organic aspect of this site really makes me feel comfortable. (if it makes any sense)

That's good to hear, CR, I had spoken only with the staff, but I had the idea of perhaps having a new Zerg forum skin to kick in with Heart of the Swarm, I've been using this Night Elf skin forever, I'd like some variety, and it'd be fitting, anyway! Interested?^^

well. this is a warcraft forum, so a new night elf look might be better.
However it is the HIVE very zerg appropriate.

The final decision are up to users and the admins, and I will assist whatever the outcome is.

Undead, Orc or Human would be for the best, in my humble opinion. The Night Elf theme looks good as it is, and we already have a SC2 theme(the site is more WC3 oriented either way).
And CR, if you're ACTUALLY going to make a theme for the Hive... I can only believe it will be amazing! Good luck, and I hope you're actually going to do it. :)

I like the Night Elf as it is, I think there is no need for a new one. Zerg would be more fitting because of the «Hive» connotation, and well, it helps bring in new people if the colors are actually bearable for more than just a few minutes and if the skin overall is of higher quality.

EDIT:
Slight off-topic observation, your post count matches your reputation count exactly ;P
 
I know!
Forum skin contest.
OhWUT.

Yeah, open it up to allow people to modify their own skins (no negative server side effects. proboards has it).

Tell them to screenshot it, or develop a way to transfer the skin via file which can then be uploaded, or maybe an .html file that can be viewed (just a single test page).

Winner gets a medal.

That much * was given here about SC2, its skin or anything related to it for that matter.

That's an idea.

I hope the Admin will not change this again, but rather just put optional change of schemes...
That's what happens when you TL;DR.
attachment.php


P.S. -- If you were talking about actual colors, well, that can't be changed. What we could do is create a new style with the same forum skin but with a different color scheme.

My problem was that the skin didnt get saved as Website configuration but as cookie?!
Those are deleted anyway when I close my browser.
Kinda miss the cupcakes tho and got used to terran anyway.
New CR Nightelv would be insane tho!!

More green and jungle overgrown. Can be just a modification to existing Nightelf look, a pimp-UP in a way.

Will take less time then doing the new one from scratch and will have that new website smell to it.
