The Forum

Sorry about that, I'm working on redesigning the header to fit with our new links and I've been playing with the color schemes while I'm at it, so it all matches. Please let me know what you like and don't!

Whew...........glad its not me or my puter!

Actually, I like this one you have on right now.....kinda outdoorsy........kind of a soft burning coal. I like it!

Oh, good... that's what I was going for... kind of a flamey orangey kinda thing... I did some wallpapers and some icons for the forum that had this kind of "feel" and decided to run with it.

The wallpapers are under bbq fun, freebies: http://www.cookshackamerica.com/Wallpaper.aspx

this is a nice color
jack

it's a nice color scheme, i think i will get used to it.

This works quite well....I like it!! :-D

Kelly, the yellow kind of screams at you, like upper case letters in a post. I think it would be easier on the eyes if it was toned down.

Color is fine. A while back my fonts changed and now it hard to read the opening forum page b/c of the font and size. Did my computer gremlins (aka my children) inadvertantly change this on my computer or is it a Cookshack thing?

Mark

All the forum fonts should be default Verdana or Arial, font size 2 (which is normal reading text in browsers). If they're not all the same, then I'd hazard a guess it might be your end, but I couldn't be for sure.

lose the orange! It remians Okie of Texas.

Hey, it's great.. like looking into a bed of perfectly glowing coals.. hee hee.

Glowing coals? We cook on FE and CS!

Kelly,
I love it,please leave it....

Mike, your kissin' up...

Kelly:

A bit bright, but I like it.

The yellow is just too much... can you tone it down a bit? It's hurting my eyes.

For continuity sake, it would be better to keep the banner the same color as the home page.

Do like the bigger print--- It helps us ol' folk.

... and us Arkies of Tennessee

I don't mind the change. Did sttartle me for a minute tho

Coool -- I like it -- but it sure was a shock when it came up

Looks great. Nothing wrong with a little change

I think the yellow color is terrible and annoying..

Just my two cents.

I think it's fine. Looks like post-it notes on typing paper... but I'm used to that already.

It works!

I see an orangish color where posting occurs, not yellow. Wonder if thats the difference in peoples puter settings?

Not crazy about the yellow and orange combo. It's certainly eye-catching but bothersome to read for any length of time. Not enough contrast for these tired old eyes.

Agree with mainelydave and Mn Que. Could you tone it down a bit?

The format is OK except for the yellow. It's like looking into the sun without my Raybans on. Mega-Headache! Please find a more soothing color.

It bothers my eyes, too. Don't know what to suggest, though. I was fine with the way it was before.

Like the new look. Nice change.

Hmmm... did the yellow get toned down, or am I just getting used to it? Looks better.

I really don't care what color they make it. I am just glad that Cookshack puts up with us. Roger

Yes, the yellow got toned down.

Most of the changes had to do with combining the site with the full CS site so they wanted to change the look and feel, hence the yellow and orange. Now the yellow isn't SCREAMING at us, it's more subtle.

And the links at the top now link to the cookshack site, the old ones actually went to some "missing links".

Remember all those posts about links not working, well here is the fix.

Thanks to Kelly @ Cookshack for the changes.

Russ

Look's fine !! If it were'nt for change I would'nt have a 55 !!!!

Kelly @ Cookshack

Hmmmmm.........I like it!!!!!!!!

Doc

Hi Kelly...good job on the yellow! Now, let's talk about the orange

Kelly, thanks for toning down the yellow. Now I can remove my sun glasses.
