A new frontpage look:

I miss the gray. So I spent all morning re-doing it. Luckily I had saved a page from the old GT. What do you think?

Very nice! I'm no fan of dark themes though, so I'd lighten it up some.

I prefer dark. Easier on the eyes.

I think Guru wouldn't mind if someone actually wanted to do all the images and CSS to give Gametoast its old look as a forum setting option, but I'll tell you now that's a LOT of images and whatnot.

Haha yeap :]

You have to go and change every button from the smallest thing such as an submit button in the admin panel to the edit button in a post XD

It takes a lot of work to code PHPBB3 themes...

I would totally go back to the old look if someone did that. (and that person would have my utmost respect. doing that sounds like a pain in the butt)

Yeah I know, I've done it before, it always seems there's something else to change. I could do it, but it'll be easier to find the template guru used before and rename things/copy and paste css. *hopes he can find it*

its funny that I was actually making a new front page when this topic surfaced. I am including some of the suggestions and files sent to me from folks on here so far. Also the new admin area I put for adding main page stories will make it 11111 times easier to update the page when im on the road.

Should have something up within 7 days.
