Okay, so I dunno what to post in this week's poll :p

Anyway, since it's been discussed before in this thread (http://www.opentechsupport.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4062), I'm considering on creating a light-color layout for OTS - not as a replacement but as an option.

So I just wanted to make sure if it was still wanted or not - coz it's gonna be a lotta work :eek:

Laggy...you have one of the easiest sites to read on the Internet. No eye strain...it is a pleasure to visit and spend some time. Likewise, since that last format at TG, I don't visit as regularly because after 15 minutes, my eyes are doing strange things and they water up badly.

Don't mess with what is not broken.

On the flip side, its your site...you do with it as you see fit. :)

The current setup is easy to read. Color is relatively unimportant to me as long as everything is clear.

I love the current layout mate.

But maybe having the option to go light or dark would be kinda nice.

Depends how much work it would involve and if its worth the effort.

I would have to agree with Chako Laggy, your site is fine the way it is. Just my opinion though. ;) I like the colors and as Chako stated it's easy on the eyes. :cool:

I think having a choice of whether the layout is dark or light would be great.

I wouldn't invest any time into changing it if I were you Laggy. If the poll results are any indication, OTS.net is just fine the way it is.

I like the current layout, and it is very easy to read. However it would be neat to have an option for a light layout as well. It's a lot of work but it might be interesting to see. I don't know if too many people will use it but it's worth a try.

I won't....there is a reason why I use dark desktop wallpapers.

You change to a dark on light color scheme laggy and you'll need a new forum mod :P

Well it's obviously not going to be a walk in the park, you'll need to have a lot of free time on your hands.

Stay dark !

We have to remember the light layout will be an OPTION people, so you can pick your own default. You don't necessarily have to go with it.

But it is a lot of work.

It is pointless to do if noone wants it.

It all depends on what it would look like with light colours, the new layout might look better than most people would expect.

No it won't.

Fine it won't, seeing how there's 22 votes for the dark-coloured layout, which means the poll is getting very one-sided, I'm not going to argue about it anymore, do what you want Laggy.

Stick with the black and green! The current layout you have is great.

Besides, the layout matches with my avatar :D

It was more of an observation but if you want to think of it as a compliment than you're welcome.

Change to light on dark ~~~d:
An option would be good, depending on what the colour scheme would be.
I still like how it looked for the april fool's day joke.

An option would be nice. The april fool's layout was pretty good too.
