Some feedback has been left suggesting that the background colour of the main site (sega-16.com) is too light, so I thought I'd put it to a vote. Of course Ken will have the final say.

(I vote for Forum Navy Blue)

Great work landstalkerx!

I voted for the royal blue, but let's see what everyone thinks.

I voted Royal Blue. And btw, I miss a logo or something at the top of the page. A banner with some cool characters and a "SEGA-16" would look great I think.

I voted for Forum Blue, but I had a hard time choosing between it and Royal Blue.

And yeah, a Sega-16 logo would be nice... for ALL of the forum skins (I use the default forum skin because it looks soooo much cleaner and easier to read).

I'm sure the logo on the Plasma skin could be applied to the default one too.

It needs a little bit of work, but I've added a banner to the default skin.

Hey it's better than the generic "Vbulletin Forums" or whatever it was. Cool!

I don't think the post-G/MD artwork with Knuckles, Dr. Eggman and green-eyed Sonic fits. Sorry if I'm too nostalgic here, but on a G/MD-page there should be artwork from that era. :)

The problem is finding quality artwork from the era. :(

The navy blue looks the snazziest and most appropriate of them all, in my opinion.

Melf is correct -- between him and I, we tried various concepts and it ultimately just gave a very underwhelming look. Meshing sprites together or something would certainly look more "approrpriate", sacrifices the professional image that SEGA-16 is shooting for.

...oh, and I voted for navy blue.

I made a mistake! I liked Royal Blue more, but I think original works better with all the individual components of the sites (like the little blips for new reviews/articles). Disregard m vote for Royal Blue- I vote for Original.

So when is the change officially going into effect?

The poll ends today, so I hope to have them implemented by the weekend. :)

The background has been changed and all pics updated. Expect the new color, along with some changes to the main page, with Monday's review update!

It's looking great! I think we made the right choice, by going with the Navy Blue colour.

The site really is looking slick now. I especially like the addition of captions for Latest Review and Latest Feature.
