Can we make this website with a black background sometime in the foreseeable future ?

__________________

no, first off put aside the grim factor for a minute. and yes I know it would be optional but have you ever tried to read a website that has white text on black background. after few minutes your fucking eyes turn to shit. I really doubt nomad has the time do impliment this and even if he did it would be blasphemy againts our green emerald

__________________

that would mean no more green screen!

Turn down the brightness of your monitor until the green turns to black, you should still be able to read all the text

Personally its easier to read. But I'd keep it this way. Good to play guitar to in this room when the fish tank light goes out; green ambient to the room.

dude,this is the GREEN SCREEN

Are you blaspheming againt the green? Heretic! Non-believer!

Well there is the option for a white color scheme, so i don't see why black would be out of the question

__________________

its all about the green screen, there is something in the green that is addictive, maybe subliminal messages, but whatever it is, once you're here, you never really leave, unless you get flamed out as a newb

But in that situation, you leave before you are truely adicted.

If the selector works by just changing the refrenced stylesheet, then it probably wouldn't be too hard to do, but generally, black webpages are ugly and numerous. The green is good because it is unique and it looks good.

Tell that to maddox. It is easier to read to me than black on white for the reasons he says, but I've used the green and the white backgrounds here and I like the green the best. Depending on the house lighting sometimes, like right now, I do have a little desk lamp to make it easier to see everything. I've been to other websites that have different combinations and it's so hard to see I don't even bother with them. I'm not straining my peepers.

The green is what makes this page special

Well, whatever you guys want... It was just my suggestion finally put into words.

Black sounds good to me.

He only uses white because everybody loves green. If you don't realize by now that Infinity would love to piss on your parade, then it's lucky for you that I'm here to clue you in: Infinity would love to piss on your parade. Which would be really funny. So ignore this post and continue.

I'd probably stop coming here if this site wasn't green. It's the only thing it really carries over from the atmetal days that isn't forced or e-tradition. But since it's still nomad's site, I doubt it'll ever change as the base color.

Psh, I made it trendy to use Agalloch avatars... Though, it could be said that the Opeth "O" was stolen from you, so I'll keep my mouth shut.

Uhh... yeah.

So what I can't use white because automatically it means I'm just using it to piss people off? This is the level of nazism the board comes to, I can't have a different colour preference to you.

"OH MY GOD HE'S USING WHITE! SACRILIGE! GET HIM, BURN HIM! "
"He's WHAT ?!?"
"He's using white, AHHHHHHH! Can you believe it, I can't personally, oh my god oh my god, not white, he can't not use our sacred green! What will we do? WAAHHH! Mummy! Infinity's using white "

Exactly what parade am I pissing on? Who's ideals am I stamping out here? I'm supporting someone who wants black. I'd prefer black over white, but the green got boring, oh say, half a year ago.

I'm not exactly sure what it is you have against me, and I don't wanna know. But quit it, please.

It wasn't that she was boring, she just started to smell a bit funky....

I like the green screen cuz it matches my eyes. Actually the dark green does. So does the gold. If there was a little brown I'd be able to hide my eyeballs in here and you'd never see them.

If I shared your opinion, I'd give you more credit for that one. But that was quite funny.

I'd use black every now and then, just to keep it looking "fresh." I've switched to white twice, and both times have not been for more than five minutes for a reason. It was too bright for my eyes. I prefer Maddox's solution of black, or other dark background so as to not hurt your eyes after five minutes.

The idiot parade. The one that cares what color background other people use. You're a real dumb cunt if you think I was actually criticizing your choice there.

I like the green and white text, its easy on the eyes.

Fuck black, green is way better.

Yeah, its THE greenscreen.

How many metal forums use fuckin black?

Erm, a lot.

A friggin epic, is what metaltabs.com is.

i just tried white and got lost...black would be fucking impossible to navigate this godforsaken forum. GREEN ALL THE FUCKING WAY!

__________________

i go to others and right when I come back to this one the mood changes. Green/white is way easier on the eyes, and the fact that almost everything is green but with differant shading, it makes it less confusing.

i like green eyes, but what gold, maybe im color blind, but where is the gold???

i dont see gold

im used to the green, and i dont mind loking at it,

also since green is suppose to be relaxing, its perfect for this forum, sine som many peeps flame eachother, try to be smartand shitm, wich leads to frustration, green is here to make that less, so i say, green mean metal screen


ye sim drunk

man some people are stupid... or making bad jokes... It's not a fucking cult to have metaltabs with an ugly green piece of shit. its terrible on the eyes, green is not appealing to the eyes, A black/ grey scheme should be constructed as to not have severe eye damage

Fuck You.


/rant.

Grey my fave. colour!

Seriously...who gives a fuck about what color the page is?

I like this colour scheme better.. easy on the eyes.
But I realy could give a bloody rat's ass what other people use.
