Aargh vBulletin :-/ ;D

Quite nice colours but a bit dark. Personally I find these colours quite nice. Very neutral, and I think people have got used to them being like this. Changing them would be something like changing the name of SimV...

Just my thoughts ;)

Personally I've been here over two years and I've got no complaints, some sites I can even read the text as they have things like yellow text on a green background!

   Ya, I have gotten used to the colors after 2 years now.  ;D  But after an hour or two gets to ya. Yellow on Green is pretty bad though. Try white on black. You'd think it be a good color combination, but it will kill your eyes. I was squinting and everything to try and ease it, but no, so I just left.  ;)

I do agree that the current colours are not quite perfect, but compared to many, many other sites they are pretty good. Scientifically the best colours is black text on a white background. That puts the least strain on your eyes.

Generally a neutral lighter background and neutral darker text is what I find best.

oooooh noooooo, never! Please mods don't change to this. Yuk! Anyway I like the SimV colours. They are attractive and they 'fit', if u know what I mean.
These colours would be highly unsuitable for here.
