Color Schemes on JoeUser.com: Revisited

New Features Added Soon...

from JoeUser Forums
Hello All,

I posted before [Color Schemes on JoeUser.com] and discussed some changes that would be swiftly approaching JoeUser.com. Well, as you can tell, color schemes have not hit the site, with regards to allowing the average Joe to change their color. Not to worry! Soon, JoeUser will be allowing everyone the ability to change colors on your own sites. As an example, please visit my site to see the "MidNight" scheme.

For a glimps of others to come, you can also click on the links below:


Please send me some feedback as to what sort of color schemes you would like to see on your site. Your input will directly effect what I'll add to the site. If you have any suggestions, such as color matching/font styles/tab designs, you name it... I want to hear it. Remember now, this is your time to speak, so please feel free too. All suggestions and comment are welcome.

By the way, did you notice the unique site logo, located top right? We'll be adding this feature too. Let me know what you think. Until then, I'll see you all on JoeUser.

I think people are going to be looking for more than color tinting the top bar. The entire right bar would need to have its own colorizing and perhaps some different styles for the tabs and other "widgets".

Wow Draginol is a slave driver! But I have to disagree with one of his points. The right side bar I think should be USER customized, not blog customized. Meaning when a user logs in the right bar should always have the same look and feel as defined by the user, not change every time you click a different article on the "recent" list.

I think the Pine theme is by far nicest looking one...something about the gradients and text-glow. I'm always partial to a deep, masculine, purple theme. :)

And if that idea makes sense, maybe the "site skin" should end just before the right-side-bar begins. So essentially the blog is skinned by the blogger to give the look & feel they want, but the right -side-bar maintains a look according to what the reader wants, so they get the feel of always navigating off of their own personalized control panel.

And then of course the whole thing has to be integrated into SDCentral (hahah j/k)
