Title: New MARS backround + design
Post by: 4markie on February 07, 2009, 03:58:29 pm
We recently added a new background to MARS.  Toaster and I talked about it and he claimed that the new stars background was not visible to him.

We are making this thread to confirm this does not apply to all of our members.  I have attached a poll to this thread and please vote to either if you see the background or not.  The browser you use may cause slight changes to your results.  You may comment on this thread if you have any additional comments.

If you do not see the background, please follow the instructions below:

UnknownToaster mentioned that all he needed to do was clear his cache and it worked, so here's instructions on clearing caches for each browser:

yeah you may want to pick lighter colors. The colors you and toaster chose are a horrible mix with the text and signatures, if you dont mind me mentioning. If you are using hexadecimal codes for the colors, here is a hexadecimal color page:

Oh lol, and yes i know theres a third admin, but you in general seem to do just as much as 4markie. lol im sorry for bringing you in this *ashamed*. and 4markie, this isnt all that bad, its only hated right now because the color is too dark and interupting our beautiful sigs lol. Just brighten the color and everyone will brighten up as well.
