Changed the background, to make the forum less plain/dull. Let me know what you think of it.
Changed the New topic notification icon from blue to red, to make it more noticeable
Added a nav bar, black and blue to encapsulate the full forum colors. Will be improved.

| How would it look if you made the image not follow the scrolling, and instead have the image repeat when you scroll down? I know I explained that horribly, but there's a way you can do that somehow.
Since both sides of the background fade to black, there wouldn't be a noticeable border, so I think it would look nice. | |

I'll try to find an example. | |

| Let me take a crack at what he's trying to propose:
He wants the image to repeat when you scroll down, like when you scroll down the forum, the first instance of the background goes up as you scroll up and a second one appears at the bottom as you continue to scroll down, and another appears if you keep scrolling on and so on. | |

| I've seen it done before.
I think it's a matter of just checking a box in some settings somewhere. | |

| I'll look into it. I just skimmed through the admin panel and found no such option. | |

| Should be somewhere in the pictures management thing, but idk. I haven't looked at an admin panel in a while. | |

| You just reminded me Ace...always wanted to ask you. Since you were the admin of a forum...how come you never merged your forum with mines? We could've both been Admins and had double the members. | |

| Two reasons.
One, they weren't the same kind of forum. This one is a general discussion forum, while the one I was on was more of a roleplay/storywriting forum. It could've worked out I suppose, but the idea never occurred to me.
Two, I didn't really like the other one. One of my friends long ago just brought up that he had started a website of his own and needed admins there to help keep fools in line, so I agreed to do it. Out of the fifty-ish (maybe) members, at least half lacked common courtesy and sense, and I really only befriended two or three of the others. And after a little while, the main admin, who was the only reason I joined the site in the first place, just totally vanished. So I just handled the site for about a year or so until it eventually died, partially because the only guy with any power (me) never really contributed to any roleplay/storywrite thing (I just banned people and chatted, so not much respect to me) and partially because the community sucked. I rather enjoyed its death, because when it was on its last legs, it was only the few cool people and one a$$hat left who mostly knew how to behave, so there wasn't much moderating to do. Then we just parted ways.
Exposing NH to the bumbling fools I had to deal with would not be a good idea... more members often doesn't make a forum better. | |

| I think having new members is never a bad thing simply because none of them are permanent. If they are horrible, they get banned.
And we actually used to have a RPG forum.
Anyways, regarding your suggestion. This is interesting. On Mobile, it looks like the background does exactly what you suggested (repeats). But on PC it doesn't. I'm not sure why. | |

| @Ahmed Tru dat. But they could be a little obnoxious. I guess I should've advertised this place, but I never thought of it. Too late to do anything now, sadly. - ... wrote:
