    I can edit the colors of the forum and I'd like some input from you guys. I just threw this together but I can change it if you guys want. Tell me what you think!

    The forum shadow bit needs to be a dark blue or something to maintain the 3d effect.</p>

    Yeah, much nicer.</p>

    The light blue is a little on the vivid side. Doesn't seem to match the blue in the team logo, which is a tad darker.</p>

    My $.02</p>

    It looks way nicer...</p>

    Can you get the color # from the actual logo? Look at the very top and compare the blue with the blue in the logo...</p>

    I'm horrible at stuff like this. Do you know how to find an exact match?

    Two ways</p>

    1) Right click and save the logo, load it into a paint program and use the eyedropper tool to choose the color
    2) There's surely some plugin for firefox that has a color picker (eyedrop like tool)</p>

    It looks closer.</p>

    The logo is smallish, so it's hard to see the color. I doesn't look right tho, but it could be an illusion [​IMG]</p>

    Updated. It's perfect because I downloaded the ColorZilla add-on and it lets you scroll over a color and find the exact coding number that matches it. If it still looks off, it's probably just because the size of the logo or something.

    Yep, looks good. I liked the banners at JBB with the franchise player in each forum, but that stuff doesn't really matter, it just looks nice.

    LOL.. I gotta say, that does look pretty amazing, ha. I refreshed the page and saw my sig up there like "what the.."</p>

    That's cool though, maybe I'll make a little banner to put up there..</p>
