I am not sure if I want to go black on this one. I will have to think about it.

I dunno about black. We dont want a total TF or GMFS clone - this place should have a vibe of it's own, IMO.
I was going to say dark blue and gray hues....but on a GM-based website that might look a little Fordish, lol. I still think it would look good though.

Once this site is stable, meaning I know its going to do well, I will be getting a sweet ass skin done and a front page setup too.

Well, I do like the background white where we are posting, but I want to change up the colors/header and make it its own look and feel.

GMFS is easier on my eyes IMO. Does not hurt to read it. Darker colors are better IMO.

YOu know how in the middle of the night when you get up to pee and turn the light on and it hurts like hell. Well going from GMFS to other sites has that same effect. Only it lasts longer.

I have to agree that a darker color would be easier on the eyes. I'm on gmfs, but i dont use it much. mainly a lurker.
Yuke2K
05-02-2009, 01:26 PM
Yeah, same here. I think I posted once a couple of years ago over at GMFS, if at all. Don't remember. Lots of good info if you can sort through the bickering, lol.

05-03-2009, 02:55 AM
you know what you SHOULD do, you need to make the site clone microsoft outlook so i can have it open at work and NO ONE will know... lol ahhahhaa
my vote is to find a style all "our" own... something that is uniquely TYF
but then again, i dont really give a fuck, just dont change the mechanics becuase i do like to format and layout... simple and easy to navigate...

Shaggy what bout do a Gray back ground the Bowtie and GMC badges going across it at a angle the bowtie being Blue or Silver and the GMC either being opposite of the bowtie like a blue Bowtie and Silver GMC? And under them in little bit smaller writing put Tahoe and Yukon beneath their Badges? Just a thought!
Timmy
05-03-2009, 11:08 PM
idk. sounds really cluttered. i like the way that the logo's are right now, we just need a darker skin, :imo

Not a bad idea, if they are a shadow image, meaning really faint..

That would look good IMO! And leave the main Forum logo like it is or maybe just enhance it with little detail.

anything darker would be better. the white is just to bright.
Timmy
05-04-2009, 09:51 AM

lurking lurking lurking. Heck if I speak you guys will realize that I don't know shit. hehehe. I do like the idea of it being a bit darker. Im not sure if this is a option yet or not but I would love to be able to see the stuff I already posted on to keep up with them. For now I just have to look at new posts for everything. Right now thats ok because this site is small but it is growing and new posts will begin to fast. If there is a way to see the threads i've posted on only please let me know. Otherwise I will shut the fuck up and lurk lol
or as soon as you reply it automaticlyy gives you the option of subing to the thread.

i am new to the TYF but tring to get my post count up and also throw IMO, i think like a light gry would take the brightness away, although i am liking the idea about the logos in the background having a silhouette afftect to it.

I agree with the light grey. I personally like the white, but thats just me. It makes the forum seem brighter and more positive as gay as that sounds. GMFS and FSC are too dark IMO.

Yeah I vote for a darker theme too....doesn't really have to be as dark as GMFS but this here is too plain!!
Shaggy
05-14-2009, 03:44 PM
OK, I will toss around some ideas with the skinner. I also now want to see how TYF does now with TF being online again.
