It would be nice if Language Dept and it's members wasn't the same colour as unread posts, so yeah. :)

Changes made. I ran out of colors, so left Admin Emeritas and Personnel as they were.

I think it is a nice touch to the forums.


The group colors look fine on individual users. However, with every department being a different color mixed with different user colors, i think the whole thing looks like unorganized. There are way too many colors going on the screen and it no longer looks like the forums have a theme, just chaos.


Maybe you was right, it was messy a bit, but now colors are almost the same and meaning less. I also liked my blue PD color, now it meaning less, and I use blue subsilver theme so those colors not match well like blue did.

It's not like everyone doesn't have what group they are from and if I were to do a check on who uses the forums the most, it'd probably show nearly everyone who uses the forum has been around over a year. By that point most people who pretty much know who is in what group.

Ok, so I dug deep and pulled out some formatting skillz, got lucky, and cut out the code that displays the department moderators in the Getaway Green main page template. This will get rid of the vast majority of the color and limit it to user names only.

I'm open to allowing each department to vote on what color they want.

Anyone, please let me know if you interested in helping with the wiki in a different language, with interwiki links or just translating words for templates, or if you just want to help. There's a lot to do. :)

Soo... maybe I'm just not seeing it, but it'd be like, really, really awesome if there were a link back to the Cantr homepage from the forums again. >.> I really miss it. Like, a lot.

Forgive me if I am overlooking some tiny link that is there. It used to be a lovely picture though.
