I just went to visit the other site, by Jason, Smart Phone Thoughts, and I loved how bright their colours were. I only wish we could have that here, our board seems too cold!

-Justin.

What do you think?

I like the blue/green color scheme. Although Smartphone Thoughts is bright and colorful, the orange color scheme might get old pretty fast. Blue is easy to read and easy on the eyes.

It'd be cool if we could skin it!

I like the blue-ish theme - it's very... mellow and elegant. Makes it a very relaxing site. :Fade-color

In the nicest possible way I say...Please don't bring that Hot Dog Stand-esque theme over here. I much prefer the PPCThoughts look.

I agree. I only checked the site once (I have zero interest in an MS phone) and did not like the colours.

The scheme here is just fine.

I like the mellow blue, it matches perfectly with Windows Longhorn :twisted:

blue is a calming colour.
red is an aggravating colour.

Hey now, don't get me wrong, I love the content over at smartphonethoughts, I just like the color scheme here better.

But then you would loose distinction between both sites if they had interchangeable colours!

ah yes but wouldn't that fit with the theory that PPC's and Smartphones are going to converge? :twisted:

mmm, i havent posted to smart phones in a while, i guess i will head over there now and see what is up. Boards are fine over here in blue. I think the orange suits it well over there. It actually remind me of the orange smart phone :D

Every Thoughts Media site will have a different colour scheme, and there are more than enough blue sites on the Web today. It's time to explore new colours. :-)

And, FYI, the colours on Smartphone Thoughts had nothing to with Orange the mobiel carrier - I was pushing for more yellow actually, but we ended up at the orange/yellow/red area. I love it!

Yep, I agree, I love the colour scheme over there too! I like warm colours and not cold colours, but I dont know much about smart phones :(

Speaking of which, when will we see DigitalMediaThoughts.com? Now there's one more reason the wait is killing me? What colours will it be :?: :?: :?: :mrgreen:

We're aiming for December, but that date might slip. In regards to colours, probably the colours in the logo. ;-)
