Website request.

posted on May 9th, 2011, 4:25 am

I just wanted to request that if and when the website may be redone or updated or whatnot, that it be a little lighter?  I like the whole flops theme, but i think it could use a little light around here.  The black and dark blue are a little..... depressing i guess you could say.  Just something to keep in mind for when there might be time for that, i know you all are very busy with other more important things.

Given that the website design is likely to have a wide variation in aesthetic appeal for different users it could be a better idea to have a choice of themes or an option for a user customisable theme.
I for one think the current scheme works great

Oh yeah thats a great idea! That way people could choose: i like it!  For me personally i prefer a lighter feeling to the website, but themes would offer alot of flexibility.

i like the current theme too, but of course choices would be as always great.

yes, a design update is in the works and there will be only one theme available. compared to the current one i am sure it can be considered lighter

Yeah it's a lot of work to have more than one theme, I too only have one on my site, due to the extensive modifications I do to them.

I think I'd rather have the devs concentrate on the game. Website upgrades and changes can backfire on one. Look at the horrible mess FileFront has made of itself for the last month or so.

I wouldnt mind something like a galaxy map or something, like stars and planets and maybe a fed ship near it or something, that would be a pretty good looking background theme.

Just my opinion.
