Tinpot Decorators are In

[ambersalamander]

Hey guys.

As the season has finished and we're all going to get bored I'm just doing a little bit of tweaking of the forum decor to make Tinpot Terrace a pretty and pleasant place to hang out Depending on what skin you use* you may have noticed tinpot pictures appearing at the top of your page. This is sort of experimental. I'd like to know if there are any particularly tinpot photos you want to make part of the forum, or any particular colour schemes you'd like. I'm willing, time permitting, to create skins for you based on your team's colours, if you like


*For those of you who aren't aware, you can set the forum's background colours according to your preference by going to "profile- modify profile" and then choosing from the drop-down list next to "Skins." You can choose a disgustingly coloured one that will give you a headache (Psychedelic Badger) a mickey-take of a certain Weymouth away kit (Pink Panther) one intended to be easy on the eyes (Away Kit) and several others.

I'm using the one with bits of cheese on it, very nice it is too.

That's the one I use. I actually created that one because my graphics card is buggered and I only have 16 colours at the moment (I'm using someone else's computer which is why I can now change skins and know what the results look like) and the cheese one is the only one that uses colours I can see clearly without highlighting text to create contrast.

I've switched to the away kit, oddly enough we may be getting a new away kit next season which is this colour.

Finding a colour system for my team/result roundups which suits the many wallpapers was difficult.

After extensive testing though I seem to have solved it as best as I could, the current system works perfectly for AWAY KIT, 70s & GIRLY PASTELS and works pretty well for all the others with every colour being visable. The only ones where you may encounter problems are PINK PANTHER and YUCK!. In them pink & yellow seem to disappear respectively

The monitor of my work PC doesn't show the colour red (! : so I'm quite happy to stick with the mostly blue skin.

I also have opted for the cheese
