Here would be a cool "add-on" for the forums. Having it so that a user can select in his cp fonts for the site, font colors, link colors and decoration...idk, it's an idea, not a great one but it'd sure be unique. Plus I'm obbsessed with the font Trebuchet MS.

I'm sure patrickPaul could figure that one out pretty easily, heh.

Sounds like a very unique idea!

Sounds like a good idea...i'm not very keen on hacking this board to death though. I like simple and attractive forums that aren't overkilled by hacks and mods, it makes upgrading the forum a complete nightmare.

But....of course your idea will be considered for the future.

Moving this to questions/feedback.

That would definitly improve it and as it happens i like the idea, i will talk it over with patrick and see if it's practical....i know it's possible. However, because the icons, buttons etc are all designed for this skin i think the link colours and what not might not be as appropriate.....font idea is cool though.

In my opinion it'd destroy the feel of the board, for whatever user. Link colors and so on will deviate from the original. Bright red links with large fonts will make the board look less professional, and ugly.

Still, good idea I guess....

well they're selected on a per-user bassis, so if someone chooses an awdul bright purple or red, it would only be for that user's session. anyone else would have the default until they select their own combination.

making it look professional (i think it's ugly, by hey, they might like it) wouldn't beas of large concern. they chose it, so it shouldn't drive them away. but i woudn't do it just because other people wanting it ugly would bother me.
