I've always used the yellow/orange as well. I'll try the new one for a bit to see if I can get used to it. Are you going to keep the original yellow around with the future updates or discontinue it?

The butternut squash color is my vision of how the site should look. It is the default skin, and will be here until I'm gone.Originally Posted by Heather19
Thank you! The other hurts my eyes, not sure why. I even toned down the brightness but it didn't help.

Thanks for having another option. I changed the eye-searing yellow a long time ago, and I can't go back!
Good news! It feels weird viewing the site any other way to me for some reason.The butternut squash color is my vision of how the site should look. It is the default skin, and will be here until I'm gone.
I agree. I was browsing the site for a bit with it earlier, and it was making my eyes go crazy.Thank you! The other hurts my eyes, not sure why. I even toned down the brightness but it didn't help.

I DO miss having the full color banner at the top of the page with the dark skin, though.
John
Me too. I'll get used to this though.
That's actually one part that I do like. It was always weird having the banner colors not match the rest of the site.
Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
I can make do with this.
I'm sure we could put the full color Kocurek banner above Take 5 dark, but it (IMO) would be too great a contrast. Particularly since Kocurek created the banner for us knowing the color of the background I had in mind.Me too. I'll get used to this though.
Actually, J I've always used the "Grayfolio Black" in the past and it had the color banner and it looked fine. I'm not saying it needs to be done just and FYI is all.I'm sure we could put the full color Kocurek banner above Take 5 dark, but it (IMO) would be too great a contrast.

It would be nice if it came back under this skin if it is not too much effort. The all B&W is a little distracting, but I'm sure we'll all eventually get used to it. It's strictly up to you & Simon and how involved it is to accomplish. Overall, I'm just thankful that you guys put in the work/effort to insure that the option for the B&W skin is still there for us "Old Folks"!!! lol I know you vastly prefer the orange skin and feel it's the one you envisioned for the site so, many thanks to you and Simon for thinking of us and going through the effort. Very considerate of you guys!!!!

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
This site is called, The Dark Tower, so the dark theme suits the title.
Good point. like I said, I'm cool with it and very thankful.

My thought is if we are going to color it (I love the color in the rose), only color 3 things. Make Blaine Pink, Jake and Roland in color, and the rose red. everything else can stay in the dark theme as if the world if failing. Really those are the only things that would have vibrant color in a dying world.
I'm starting to get used to the theme. I feel like I'm watching an old black and white movie on AMC. I mean, back when AMC played black and white movies.
The colour title bar is now longer than the rest of the page.
Sort it!

Please clarify before having another shot of rum.
It is on my laptop with Firefox.

Screenshot please?
That’s a browser cache thing. You have to clear your history/cache. Or hold down control, Shift, and “r”at the same time.
Looking for Mister Slaughter S/L #78
Nothing happens when I do that.

Refresh and try again.
I changed the settings so that (hopefully) only Take 5, and Take 5 Dark are available.
Problems.
Working on a fix. It sucks, and I apologize.
Joseph Here: The Banner being over sized on Grayfolio-Black has always been an issue that we have been aware of. We have tried some fixes with it, none seemed to stick and fix it, but in general as it was not an invasive or harmful bug it has been placed on the back burner. We are instead working on a "NEW" skin to replace Grayfolio-black (will look virtually identical but wont have the few bugs we know exist in the Grayfolio series of skins). The site being Quirky right now due to Data-mining hackers is making Firefox browsers unable to load the web pages correctly. Chrome appears to function fine for the moment being. For the Grayfolio series of skins, I would suggest you either swap over to the less buggy Standard Take 5 4.0.8 (our default pumpkin colored skin) or to the VB4 Default skin. Both of those skins are enabled and are the LEAST buggy and BEST performing skins (especially default for mobile platforms currently). Remaining on the Grayfolio series of skins (while it may be your visual preference) will not be supported bug wise in the immediate future as again we are moving toward a generally better and more mobile friendly version instead.
Joseph Here: If anyone is having their web page come up completely utterly blank white, (happening on firefox ATM), please append "?styleid=8" (without the quotation marks) to the end of your URL to force the website to load in default skin mode. Obviously you cant see this post if the issue is affecting you so i have added this advice onto the MAIN PAGE www.thedarktower.org where even firefox still loads a white blank version of the main page currently. Somehow firefox is loading a NULL skin which has a NULL body unless you force it to load the default style first. not sure why this is happening but at least we have a short term solution until we can find out why it is happening.
