:)Hi all, at work at the moment and as you can see the colours of the page have changed quite a bit. I'm not sure of them at the moment so am gonna have a bit of a mess around over the next few days to see if I can get it perfect. Meanwhile if you don't like the new layout or is difficult to get round let me know!
I am going to try and design a logo in the near future where the "everything vegan post message" symbol is at the moment, to try and personalise the site.
Any comments, just let me know! Good and bad! ;D

Decorating is fun. I should know! ;D I got a few buttons and logos from www.cooltext.com. They are free. I used another site too, but I didn't bookmark it, so I can't remember it now. But do a search and you will find places that let you do logos for free.

Thanks Fauxmage, thats brill..... having a mess round it at the moment, chose a brill logo and put it on the screen, then it dissapeared. ARRRGH.... why oh why did I chose proboards to put my forum on.... its a nightmare, lol. Will have a play round with it tonight at work to see if I can get the logo to stay! I love the design on your forum and the way you've put all those choices at the bottom.... very cool!

Thanks Tiggerwoos! You know, you can search for sites that design skins which you can download. That's what I started out to do, but I had the then latest version of VBulletin, and couldn't find any skins that were designed for it yet. So I started to experiment as you are doing. But if you search for skins, you might find something you can download, or something you can reproduce using you forum software. I don't know what Proboards is like. VBulletin lets me do some things in the control panel, but others I must do with the web host control panel.
I am not an expert in any way, so if I can figure it out anyone can!

LOL! You should have seen the skin I downloaded earlier...... anyone would have thought it was an Aliens forum....... quite funky but not very Veganish! Proboards doesn't seem to like cooltext as it keeps deleting my logos, but am gonna persevere as they have some good designs there, so thanks for the link!

As I'm sure over the last day or so, many of you have seen the forum colours, skins, etc be changed several times. Sorry for confusing all of you, am still working on it, till it looks perfect.
Have finally worked out how to put the logo on the page, so it all blends in now.
Anyway, bear with me, while I make these changes, meanwhile if you love or hate anything about the new colour scheme that I'm working on then please let me know, after all, you are the people that use the forum, so your opinions are important!
Thanks

Makes me feel sick when the background (some sort of stone effect) stays still while I scroll up and down the page, sorry, you did ask. Liked it all pale green - very soothing, easy on the eye

Sorry Squirrel!
Don't want anyone to feel seasick!
Am open to criticism.
How about now anyway people with the fixed background? ;D
Have also changed the layout, so there isn't one General category, but several, eg chat, animals, health etc so hopefully is easier to navigate.
