Current Song Stats and a peek.

Re: Current Song Stats and a peek.

Considering the terrible "transparencies" that every forum icon here has, any theme that doesn't have a solid background the color of the current one is going to look like a hackjob of sorts (as you probably more-so noticed with the "themes" I decided to make for myself a bit back).

Those icons need redone or replaced imo, if we intend to continue to use them with newly improved themes that use colors and alphas.

This new forum look is like drinking milk after oreos. hmmm… finally.

About the logos, this might be of interest.
edit : if you want to make the icons super-crisp-clean, you can match a matte color with the closest background color of the page, that means you'll need to do it 7 times (7 different colors) for 50-60 icons. Instead, test it before with transparency and matte set to none, you'll save time and since these are icons, that won't make a huge difference. (I think)

First pass at the forum theme.

I like that you added the link to the FFR Wiki on there. That's a neat idea.

looks amazing. However the Veteran colours clash horribly with the page.

Re: Current Song Stats and a peek.

Basically, if you change the background colors of any forum related thing, it looks terrible at post level. Mainly because colors were decided on a white background along with post people make.

I'm trying a different setup that I might like more where it retains the backgrounds but still alters the blues found on the forum.

I decided to theme the areas around the forum along with the blue bits. This will keep current colors used for the forums and threads readable without breaking everything.

surprisingly simple solution that doesn't look half bad either. Do you have the other forum colour schemes coded yet?

Good work, can't wait to see more

The plugin I use to capture the full area doesn't includes the scrollbar, which is 17px wide.

Re: Current Song Stats and a peek.

Is there an ETA as to when these updates will occur? Not that I am being rushy, just quite anxious for it really.

Re: Current Song Stats and a peek.

Will you adapt the background color with the theme ? I mean, using light red with the red theme, etc.

Sometime this year. I can't pin a date down due to upcoming school and the amount of other work involved. A bunch of API stuff has to be done for the games to continue working after the update along with most of the non-shown features of the site.

That would make sense wouldn't it. I was hoping it wasn't noticeably blue.

I believe I'm Canadian. Along with the entire active staff at this point.

Edit: I have the alt colors hooked up.
