I've always used dark blue but for the purposes of this thread I tried light blue - it lasted about 30 seconds! The contrast of dark blue works better on my laptop screen, light blue looked too clinical.
 
I've heard that too, though I use CRTs both at work and home. Maybe the theme toggle should be called 'CRT-Optimized' and 'LCD-Optimized' :) I should probably make a desaturated version of the HF logo to match the dark blue theme if it really looks that much better on LCDs.
 
thanks for the feedback again :) I have to go work now but when I come back I will respond...

Is it possible to make the light blue theme the default theme and set the dark one as the optional one? I've got a lot of comments to that effect, and I feel the same way. :P Plus, it matches our logo much better.

Yeh its possble, and it does look better imho, the dark one is like "wow, too much going on" kind of.
 
I liked the light blue, but I'm used to this now, and with a laptop light/dark is pretty relative.
 
Were pretty much split on this, I've tested it on CRT it looks good; the light blue doesn't seem to look as good as the dark blue.

You really need to view dark blue on LCD to see how good it looks. I think giving the user the option to change is good enough.

I might give it a go for a week to at the start of June so see if it appeals to guest more. I know dark blue is much preferred design/colour wise.

Then again its personal preference really.
 
well i just accidetally cleared my cache/cookies/history/saved form information, stupidly. Only meant to clear cache, but what the hell.

I've know decided I like the dark blue one more... :confused:


and i just noticed on the dark blue, all teh "edit sig, edit avatar" links have gone!
