I have a few designs to show so let's begin with two that are related to the current scheme. One of my main problems was the clash of the beige/teal in the threads so I tried to make a new post layout with the beige on the left and the teal for the main post. This creates a more harmonic look with those particular colors, but unfortunatly such a layout is not possible to create on proboards  In the next one I kept the teal color but found one I think match better than the beige.  |

Next up is a combination of nuances of the same color in a thread.  And here I've made the differences less visible.  |

Lastly, two designs where I just played around with color. VERY blue and purple - but fun nonetheless    That's it, sadly. Didn't have the time to do much more.. |

I like your "VERY blue" one best (the next-to-last one), I think, though I would prefer it with another hue than the purple and maybe trying with less contrasting colors for the 2 sections of the boards table. With another background, we could have gotten something very neat out of the second one of the 1st post, however... And indeed, the earth colors with the blue background scream a big no!! to me. ;D Subtle nuances like you shown in your second post work well for me... But not in those colors either.  |

The 'earthy' ones look like Count Chocula marshmallows to me.  I like the first blue one, but the purpleh colour is kinda off. Needs a tweak I think. Noice stuffz!  Killerzzz |

I like all the designs really, my fave's are the purple one of course and the earthy tones, tho with a different background. It's very soothing for the eyes to be honest. The second one isn't bad either and would also get my vote. But try to give the earthy tones design a chance please? It's really not that bad

Thanks for the input people - and I knew the earth colors would be universally loathed.. As said in the general color scheme thread, I am going to post a screenshot that I forgot to upload to photobucket. It's a thread example of my second design and was done before deadline - but since it's not up till now it's not my call wether it's eligible or not.  |

Nice one too, but I would still vote for the purple one and the earthy tones! ;D
