It looks like the new plasma skin is here! Looks good, except the fonts seem a bit small.

Thank the lord almighty. I always liked this one better because it was easier on my eyes to read white on dark than it was to read dark on white.

You must have a hell of a time reading books, newspapers, things written in pencil or virtually any professionally published material ever.

Usually books and newspapers aren't backlit. When you're basically staring at a light bulb, darker colors are easier on the eyes.
The plasma skin is too blue for my liking, though. I'd prefer black with grey.

All I know is that after I read articles on Sega-16 my eyeballs hurt and it is much harder to focus on the text (short articles or whatnot are fine). After I read the forums (with the default skin) my eyeballs are fine.

Any complaints against the Plasma skin are merely lies and the perpetrators should be banned with immediate effect.

I agree completely with Mr Smith.
And anyone who has problems with his eyes after reading text on Plasma should be beheaded, disembodied, burnt, soaked in acid, buried, then dug out again and spit and pissed on by the people who understand Plasma´s greatness.

Pffft. Viewing the plasma skin is as fun as to have your eyes glued to a Bluescreen of Death. Default FTW!

OMG, I just tried the new Plasma! I had no idea what anyone was talking about until I noticed the little box in the corner which read default. I switched to plasma now everything is awesome. Sick! Its like a whole nother site

Sick!
I know, completely ill, eh? In fact I'd go so far as to say it is absolutely diseased! Incurable! That is how sick it is.
PS - I LOL @ kids who use the term "sick". It's even more funny than "bad"

..........I came here thinking this was all an "Earthworm Jim" reference.

That's what we need... Sega character related skins! A Sonic skin, an Earthworm Jim skin, a Ristar skin, a Thunder Force skin, a Toejam & Earl skin, a Shinobi skin, a Castlevania Bloodlines skin, a Contra Hard Corpse skin, a MUSHA skin, a Snatcher skin, a Kolibri skin, a John Madden Football 93 skin, a Tommy Lasorda skin (it would be all leathery, like his face), a Phantasy Star skin, a Beggar Prince skin, a Pier Solar skin, an Altered Beast skin, a Flicky skin, a CLUE skin, a Divine Sealing skin, a Super Thunderblade skin (which would be the default skin) and of course a skin based on the system itself (with each model and peripheral having its own skin).
Break out your wallet, Ken. Looks like you're buyin'! :)

That would be cool. I wouldnt be against having a few advertisements on here, but even asking this question would bring on the flamethrowers.
I want to add the logo, but it's HTML, and I don't want to wonk anything up. I'll try and play with it this weekend.

Wow, you must be quite the badass
PS- I don't care and your a fucking dick

Add the logo to what? I know HTML. I see the logo at the tippy top. It's just a graphic piece, no?
PS - Temp ban for Dirt Ball for taking it too far.

To be fair, you kind of goaded him into it by acting like a dick over a FUCKING FOUR LETTER WORD.
Joe Redifer

It's no more goading than most people here get from virtually anyone on any given subject. He was the one who chose to react the way he did. Speaking of which, are you looking for the same? Lighten up.

By banning Dirt Ball Gamer ahead of Genesis Knight, it is clear that Joe Redifer's priorities are askew and he should be relieved of his position immediately.
Mr. Smith for mod!

Oh........wow. I thought that post was just typical Joe, and I'm guilty myself of having used "sick" in that context in the past. I didn't however, like AT ALL the idea of a default "Super Thunder Blade" skin..........now THAT's just taking things too far. What next, a Flash MP3 player that loops all of the game's music?
Water Torture in message board form. Excuse me while I go collect myself after such a traumatizing proposal.........Super Thunder Blade.......*shivers*

Forget Genesis Knight, we need to deal with the bigger menace....Metal_Sonic!
He hates Raul and "Futurama"!

That would rock!!! Actually the music of the game isn't bad - it's just that the sound used to create said music is pretty chinsey.

You're right, the one known as Metal_Sonic must be destroyed.

OH SHI-

I mean the Sega-16 logo we had instead of the default "plasma skin" one. It has to be replaced, but my HTML skills are teh suxors.

I want to add the logo, but it's HTML, and I don't want to wonk anything up. I'll try and play with it this weekend.Doesn't this vbulletin skin have a "select banner" function on the Admin Control Panel? It ought to be as simple as uploading the banner of appropriate size and selecting it.
Nope. You have to change the HTML of the header in the styles menu.
Joe Redifer
08-22-2008, 03:04 AM
Gimme the location of the graphic (if it exists) and grant me access to the styles menu. We can experiment on the "skinny" version if you like. I doubt anyone uses that skin.
Note: I may be busy for the next few days, but I will have time here and there.

If the banner has to be added in html, make it a graphic url link back to the main Sega-16 page, too.

So.........is DBG coming back??? I mean damn, its like a tree fell in the forest and no one at Sega-16 heard it. The message board equivalent of a hit-and-run.......except that its denizens are completely desensitized and apathetic to the violence. Granted its not like it was unprovoked but.........wait, who was that vulgar guy that was around here earlier this year that got canned?
You're right, the one known as Rusty Venture must be destroyed.
That seems more appropriate (in my humble opinion of course.) I just switched to plasma and it looks totally tubular.

Thats the way it used to be - and then they had the other one for an option and then when they upgraded - we lost old bluey. I like old bluey.

It sure does! Joe I apologize I was having a rough day, you are not a dick. It probably came off sounding crass across the computer but I wasn't really mad. I call people dicks all the time but in person they are usually able to tell im not completely serious (and also a very crude individual) but on the computer there is no voice to go off of. Anyway you will be happy to know I spent my time in solitude reading and lifting weights and now im ready to be a productive member of this online community.

I will also try to limit the amount of double posts I make.
Wasp that japanese woman is truly disgusting, not that I wouldn't hit it but good lord. How about some Stacy Keibler or Maria Sharapova shots instead
