New Theme: PuritanBoard

I created a new theme that tries to look the same as the splash screen of puritanboard.com.
Also created a new logo for it.
Any suggestions?

I like it. The background is comfortable. The message box is so much larger that it is overwhelming. Not in a bad way mind you; it has been a while we have been typing in that matchbox. Gotta get used to it.

Excellent Job Fixato!

Can you change the text so that it is a Veranda size a little bigger. When I look at the post after psoting it is a little small. The Skyblue theme font zise is absolutely perfect.

The colors are great for the Puritanboard theme. I love that.

I second webmaster's request.

FiXato:
I like what you've done so far. This new theme colour is very nice, especially since you fixed the font size.

I find it hard to read the posts when not logged in, though. The grey is too reflective, I think. I have a window behind me, and the light from that window glares off the computer screen; and with the grey colours it makes it hard to see anything. Can you change that colour, to the Puritan Board colours maybe?

It is possible to set the Puritan Board theme as the standard theme, but I think it is up to either webmaster or Scott to set Puritan as Standard theme in the Board's Settings.

I absolutely love the new size of the message box!

That is the best!

The Sky blue theme is good too - easy to read font. I can't bring myself to read the orange background and white text, however.

Thanks!

John,
Is your computer set to accept "cookies"? You should not have to log & relog (in) everytime you visit the site.......

Scott:
There are a number of people in my family using my computer. So I log out every time as a habit. If I'm on during the day when there's no one else around then I'll stay logged on, so that when I come back to the Puritan Board I'm getting my usual Sky Blue colours. But when I first look in on the Board it is usual that I am not logged in.

But I did talk my computer into taking cookies. It's just that the CD Rom doesn't work now, with all the Oreo crumbs and milk stains.

The new theme is nice but a little hard on the eyes still. I'll stick with the Acid Green.
