The forum/community is IMO the best looking one I've seen on the web!!!

I switched the marble background to a black matte background.  I think this contrasts much better with the grays and blues.

Thoughts?

The view's not that bad you just have to punch the knothole out.

Is the original background accessible VastOne?
I was thinking that I could tweak it. 

VastOne

Thanks jst_joe..  Just as an fyi, that marble original one does strange things when I scroll ... it warbles or scrunches ..

Reminds me of some trips I took in my younger days ... with the help of some shrooms.  :o :o

VastOne Is there an option in the forum setup to make the background stationary.. where only the forum text boxes scroll?

If that makes sense.?.


VastOne

It makes sense.  As far as I can tell or locate as if yet, there is nothing like that.

Well.. the black looks good.
I am curious.. does the background tile the image or stretch?

If it tiles the image then I think this would look good..

VastOne

It tiles.  I have changed it to a gif and loaded it but no amount of refreshes seems to have an effect.

It was worth a try. Thanks for giving it a shot VastOne.

I have zero experience at webpage design.
Perhaps that is something I should try.. falldown's blog!!  :D

I have been crash coursing it all day today to build a simple Download page

I am slowly getting there.

BTW, you know you can reach me at any time in IRC at #VSIDO on freenode

Having grown up in L.A. in the late 60's, 70's and early 80's I know that feeling all too well.  ???
