Yeah, it does look that way. I checked the settings, they are identical to your other group, so I have NO clue why it wouldn't let you in. But at least you are now part of the winning crowd. :mrgreen:

Y'know the forums really are a lot more colorful after this thread.

I kept meaning to find or make a different color scheme, but A) didn't; and B) folks started saying they liked the light page colors we had here opposed to most TF sites which are dark.

My only complaint is that I keep confusing you for Scourge in the 'last post' box! Not your fault, but it keeps tripping me up! :P

Oh I dunno, I am the one who changed my group to "Decepticons" effectively changing the color to match Scourge's so it is kinda my fault. :P

And I just noticed that my Av is an image from the cartoon so that probably doesn't help either.

Well, hell, with a handle like "Shockwave", what other group were you gonna join, right?

I could see maybe altering parts here and there to kind of alter the mood. (I wouldn't be opposed to a muted green colour scheme; pretty much what we already have, just green instead.) But I do definitely like that it's brighter and easy on the eyes. Also makes it non-assuming when I browse at work. The (relative) lack of tasteless half-naked chicks in signature pictures also helps that. (And Prowl, I don't fault you one bit. That's your gimmick now. My ridiculous sig probably attracts just as much attention.)

I can confirm this.

I originally asked you guys for feedback when we were starting up and had more free time, but didn't get much input. Now I don't have time to do anything like that. So, you guys can look through the various pre-built styles that we can use that might look nice and advise me what might work for us better:
