I tried to set it as the new default but I'm afraid I don't have the ability to do that, so I thought I'd let you know that you can switch your forum skin to "Sangre" and see what all this business has been.

I've done a lot of testing and debugging but probably didn't catch everything so let me know.

The white against the dark red makes my eyes hurt bad.

yea, its pretty but then after a while it's like "whoa - what?" because the contrast isnt quite right...??

by white i think i know what you're talking about.
is this better?

i like the red and black but yeah, the white hurts my eyes.

what "white" are you all talking about?

i thought i'd gotten rid of most every instance of white except for the quick reply and some menu things.

this is what i see when i come on here. is this white you speak of on here, or is it possible we're dealing with browser issues?

Thats what I see...

For the record...I liked the old one...

yeah but what about that is white?

I like the new skin. 'Tis nifty.

I didnt see any white...

alright. well a preference is a preference, and honestly i don't blame you.
like zephirus once did, i like cooler tones myself, but red is pretty much the df theme.

i'm probably going to make a cyan version of this skin too, for those of us that just don't jive with the red. something like that sound cool?

I have dodgy eyes so Im sticking to the old one just to make sure Its very funky and modern though ryan. Good job. .I wouldnt be able to come on here if it was purely black and white cuz I get double vision and migraine

ok i need to clear something up.
what i'm looking for is for someone to name a specific spot on the layout that is too high contrast, because i don't see where these dancing colors are that people aren't liking.

i'm trying to edit this thing to a point where people can use it.
for instance:
'the "Edit, Quote, and Quick Reply" buttons are very bright in the post boxes, and it's hard on the eyes.'
instead of
"oh that button, it's bright. and stuff is red, so it sucks".

i like the way it looks when you read the messages but when you are going through, the red on red links look...strange...i dunno, i mean i like it. i mean c'mon *cough* crimson - fav color

yeah that's what i'm lookin for.

both are good, but the red gets my attention alot more

i like it now. i have regrouped (takes me a bit to adjust to change) but I like the deep reds and stuff. i mean, my lj is the same color scheme minus the grey tones awesome job surreal, dearest

instead of editing sangre anymore, i'm just going to get started on the blue variation.
some of you may appreciate that more.
i know i will.
