Testing a grey forum... Noticing there are still some brown elements in places... But now that you see it, what do you think of it?

BTW - Supporters will still see an orange forum, you will need to log out to see the grey one.

I like it!
Very easy on the eye and stylish.
I liked the brownish theme too, but i prefer it like this :)

I prefer the brownish theme from before (especially when typing a reply like right now), but I can live with the grey theme.

It's a lot less painful on the eyes. Nice.

I finished writing something, posted it, and thought I had gone color-blind for a second.

Do you guys think it would look better with the traditional orange text fields for typing stuff? Or do you like the grey text fields?

Leave the grey text fields. The orange didn't feel right. I never really liked it to start. This, on the other hand, is great.

I would personally choose the orange text fields over this grey one. Just looks better, in my opinion.
Something about the color orange, I guess.

Would it be possible to let users choose what color theme they'd like for the forums and such in the future?

Response to Grey Forum Test 2013-05-30 13:55:21


I like the grey skinned background stuff, but not for the text boxes.

I like it a lot! It's easier on the eyes - which makes sense design wise as it makes reading things more relaxing.

The grey textfield indeed bugs me a bit - an orange text field would be very nice.

Really? That wouldn't look very pretty. The orange color would contrast with the skin color, wouldn't it?

I'm really stuck on the orange...mostly because it gives me that "NG" feel. This grey is too cool. I think choosing a color theme is pretty cool overall, but yeah I'm with orange.

As for the forum colors? Noooo I suddenly saw the Audio Forum all grey and I forgot where I was for a moment :'(

green yes please

I prefer the traditional orange text fields. The old orange made this place feel more newgrounds. Orange is symbolic of newgrounds and I prefer the newgrounds feel when typing.

This this this. I think I'd miss the green of the Audio Forum if it were to become grey.

I'm basically saying the same thing I said in the front page post, but the orange has really become iconic, especially for the NG forums. The gray looks ok, but makes the forums lose their identity to a point; it's not like the orange before hurt anyone's eyes or anything like that, it was a good tone. Plus, it would be just awkward going to the forum after clicking the orange community button and seeing the gray. It'd be like clicking the green Audio button up there and getting the purple color for Channels.

It feels....weird seeing all of this in grey. I kinda like it.

Also I clicked on a thread and it redirected me to Cathode Raybots for some reason ._.

Are you clicking on the skin surrounding the listing? Or are you 100% sure you are clicking forum links and it's going to Cathode Raybots? If so, what browser / version / OS?
