I rather like it the way it is- it feels like a trusted and reliable friend!But am obviously happy to go along with what everyone else thinks.
What type of changes do you have in mind?

Just thinking about changing the colours of the forum and general style. Will dig out some choices for you all to look at, but we won't change anything if you don't want us to!!

I must admit I liked it how it was when I joined. Creamy colour with a rainbow outline I think it was? But I don't mind having a colour change!

Yeah that's good idea Glynis. The original one was quite nice as well.

A change is as good as a rest- as they say. Not as keen on this one as ones that have gone before. Pity you are only offering a change of style for the forum as I really could do with a bit of a lick and polish as I'm feeling a bit frayed around the edges.

I've been so stressed these last few months I have no nails left to manicure.

I wouldn't mind a wee change, I liked the green colour at first, but I have gone off it slightly now!

To be honest I'm happy with have the forum loks already. However if you can show us some suggestions, then I might like one of them even more. Lisa x

Oops might've given too many examples to choose from there!!

I quite fancy a red or purple theme. And I love the Christmas theme - what do you reckon to adding that at Christmas?

I really love Diddle, that's the one that was on when I joined. But I quite like Red Ice, Purple Stylus, and Black Soul looks quite funky, but it might be a bit dark.
The Christmas one would be fab for December. Maybe keep the forum like it is for this Month. Change it to the Christmas one in December and then change it to which ever one wins the vote in January? (If you're doing a vote???)

Yes it's not worth changing before Christmas. Will run polls and make the change of style a new year thing. Looking forward to the Christmas themed one and getting all Christmassy

Yes I quite like Desert Storm too. Let me know which ones you like and I'll put them in a poll towards the end of the year.

I seem to prefer the paler ones (like this one!) - I'm happy to change. The christmas one would be good - I love christmas! The Blue Invision one looks nice to me.
