Marry, Date, Kill

Carbon

Radon

Coal

theme with most happy marriages might get to live in the oncoming theme apocalypse.

Radon is slightly different than the other two themes, for the purposes of this thought exercise please only consider the accent colors and not other changes.

Essentially, rank your favorite colors.

EDIT: Radon can stay because there are no staff members with green names. Carbon vs Coal fight GO.

Alternatively, we could force member username colors to a single color that ignores themes.

Re: Marry, Date, Kill

Coal ftw. It’s the only one I’ve ever used.

If you’re gonna cull the themes then Flax and Flax Dark should be the first to go. They make the forum look like the blandest, most generic message board in existence; I’d expect that design from a forum about whittling, not about a flash game.

Re: Marry, Date, Kill

aight let's do this:

marry: radon

although an uncommon choice amongst users, i feel that it looks cooler than the others. it has staying power (i wouldnt be using it for... holy **** these forums are almost 3 years old otherwise.) i like that it makes it look more "techy" i guess, idk something about it is nice.

date: carbon

y'know carbon isnt that bad. the blue is nice. it just dont look as nice with as i would like. maybe if it were darker. good for a one night stand. (im taking date as ****).

kill: coal

holy **** where do i start. first off, coal means black not **** orange. plus it looks like someone squeezed pulp onto my **** monitor and mixed it with barf. it's a tragedy that is the default forum theme.

Re: Marry, Date, Kill

Coal ftw because it doesn't make my eyes bleed, most of the others have super bright colours I guess radon is alright, although its slightly harder to read the green

And coal works WAAAAY better than flax on mobile for me... I'm using an iPhone 4S

Re: Marry, Date, Kill

Marry: Carbon.

I really like the blue on it. It's also one of the themes where all role colors can be seen perfectly.

Date: Nostalgia

Reminds me of the default FluxBB themes. Fully square boxes. And it's also blue, which means role colors can be seen fine.

Kill: Coal

I don't have anything wrong against the theme as it is, but as the default theme. Sincerely, it's time for a change. Can't believe the huge amount of lazy users that don't want to change their themes and force users with other themes to deal with the discomfort of undesired changes for their pleasure only because they're the majority. This theme is faulty that EE Administrators have magenta names instead of yellow, color which looks good on any other theme except the only one people want to use. Yet, they favor it instead of all the other themes.

Oh yeah, let’s ignore the stats entirely. Most popular theme? - nah, throw it away.

0.0562% Flax Dark #
0.0562% Simple    #
1.63%   Snow      ##
3.43%   Nostalgia ###
6.13%   Radon     ######
10.6%   Carbon    ###########
78.1%   Coal      ##############################################################################

~Assuming these numbers are actually for popularity.

Well it's obviously rigged cause Coal is the default one. Although I still prefer it to other themes
Honestly if Radon had slightly different color I would go for it.

Ok but you can’t bin the default theme. People are used to it.

Default or not, Coal is actually just the best option.
