Nice isn't it. It did come out a bit more mustard/baby poo than I intended.

I'm going to experiment a bit until I find a theme that everyone hates.

Maybe it needs to be a bit greener for that full phlegm effect.

I notice the narrower display is better on a phone. One of the excuses people give for not using the forum so much is that it has been awkward on a mobile device.

That's a bit more yellow. Possibly too much ...

I can see you are having fun. Rather liked the 'yellow' one though it seemed more green to me on my work pc :lol:

I suppose there might be some who'll like the pink set up but I think that'd make me ill for sure.

I see we can put links in the top right hand corner - link to website, news and faceache?

I've done the links - had to pause to eat food.

This one isn't quite so nice on mobile as the very yellow one. I did try one other but it was hideous.

The logo is a hyperlink back to the forum index. I haven't verified all the other links because I'm sloppy.

There's a bit of a whitespace between the logo and the links. It might be nice to put something tasteful in there.

The pic of the club at the Olympic RR? Or a pic of a tt'er taken at a recent event.

I'm not putting that pic Huw took of me up there. Not without some serious photoshopping.

I don't much care for the magenta colour that indicates new post. Really doesn't go with the orangey colour.

Nice work Phil, great to see development. The links are good and I think the new News section is a welcome edition to the website, maybe have it as the default front page or a big banner at the top of the home page on the website as the first point of call.

Really appreciate all the work.
