Gmods being blue - Page 3

Whisper · July 29th, 2009, 05:05 PM

i've always loved the blue (blues my fav colour <3)
and it depends what skin you use
there's many to choose from

Personally on the original skin (black and gold) they stick out VERY well

Good point Kodie.

I dunno I just see it as a tradition for VT, the colours and faces have never really changed really.

How about letting them choose their own color? I mean that might suit them better.

Yeah I guess so, but we would all have to agree on one colour as a matter of keeping a uniform.

But I doubt things will change.

We only have four gmods. You could look at the length of their name or their avatar/signature in order to determine who they are.

Also, people keep suggesting yellow as the new color, but try reading this sentence in vBulletin style.

I can read them on normal background, but i use black & yellow anyway.

The dude has a point.

I don't see much of an issue, I mean its a blue name just so members can easily identify what level of staff someone is and if they aren't sure theres are personal message saying that then our face. I think it really isn't a big issue.

Sometimes I have problems reading it, I can totally see why Jon can't read it. I agree, it should be changed.

Exactly. Tradition shouldn't influence anyone's opinion. Sometimes change is best. The color is a little hard to read. Perhaps just changing it to a lighter blue, just a few shades lighter than it is now.

Deschain · July 29th, 2009, 08:22 PM

Cyan, maybe?

Go to VBulletin style. It's almost impossible to see without highlighting.

Deschain · July 29th, 2009, 08:32 PM

Yeah, I just did.

Silver?

Yeahh...no.

Cloud · July 29th, 2009, 08:36 PM

silver doesnt show on silver and blue

how bout orange?

Deschain · July 29th, 2009, 08:42 PM

That's a good idea.
It stands out.
And seems appropriate for a G-Mod.

The Joker · July 29th, 2009, 09:35 PM

Yes, because it's similiar to admins, it means they are important staff.

Antares · July 29th, 2009, 09:48 PM

We are not changing it I don't think. That would mean we change the face too and we didn't create those.
Most people can see it fine...unless youre visually impaired.

Yeah...
I actually never thought of that.

Are there any of the original founders of VT here now?

No.
The 'VT founders', i.e. Francis and Josh, have left. Also, they did not make these faces (maybe the Gmod face though).

To my knowledge people from GovTeen first made the faces. And GovTeen existed in 1999.
I agree with John.

That's sad.

And yeah, me too.
He's right on spot.

I, personally, have no problem on any of the themes. (And I used Forever Blue the entire time until B&G came out).

No reason changing them as that would be weird, and obvously they work quite well already.
