Dear Paul,
Great new BBS. Very refreshing with lots of new gimmicks to play with. However, was this the best colour scheme you could have gone with? It doesn't have the richness and style of the old BBS. Besides, it clashes with the borders. No complaint, but a little disorientating with its brightness. However, keep up the good work.
Best wishes,
The NOT so new Mystic. |

| My only "complaint" about the new board color scheme is the auqua marine title bar with gold lettering. Why can it be more like the dark blue with yellow of the main menu? |

It's the best colour choice everyone could agree on without causing Development to have to go back and redo all the Icons and buttons. Most boards are developed for a light background and dark text. If you recall our other board was opposite and things like the smilies never really looked that great because they were designed for a light background board. The same thing is true here and there was a lot of back and forth yelling about the board and what it looked like and what colour it would be.
I may be able to get Development to change the colour code on the links on the left hand navigation column to match better with the yellow in the mouse over. I'll ask and see what they say.

Dear Paul,
No sweat! I think the new board is swelling with wonderful new conveniences that really outweigh my minimal grievance. Actually, after a bit of playing about here, I'm getting used to it. Thanks again, for all your efforts!!!
Best wishes,

He should have a field day with this.
"Caution to the wind"
"Upwind"
"Lips together and blow"
"Oh my"
