    New Skin/Theme

    Heya Folks! Want to get some input from you all...

    Right after I finished the "Seascape" theme, I started working on another one that would be completely different from anything BP.net already had. It has turned into a LOT more work than I anticipated, but I was enjoying it......right up until the time my computer died. All my work is still stuck on that hard drive, but hopefully I'll be able to retrieve the data soon and get back to work on it.

    What I want to know is if the kind of theme I've been putting all these hours into would even be used? If no one uses it, then I'd rather focus my efforts on other projects. So help me out here.....

    Of course, I don't expect everyone to use it...or even like it. But if a few people would enjoy it, then that would be worth it.

    In looking at many different sites, I have noticed that some people seem to favor a very dark background with bright, contrasting text. And such themes are also usually quite "busy" with graphics as well. In creating a dark background, basically all the graphics have to be completely revised...and you'd be amazed at how many itty bitty graphics are involved in these forums and modules! LOL

    So....can I get a show of hands on how many folks would actually be interested in such a theme?

    Dark & Busy = Lots of graphics with a very dark background and bright text.
    Dark & Simple = Basic black background with clean lines and simple graphics.
    Not Interested = I wouldn't use that sort of theme at all, but thanks for the thought.

    I defenitely love the Dark themes. If you make one that has Blacks, greys and the famous orangy text, it will be my theme 4life
