Updating the Color Scheme and logo
Now that we are trying to get this thing going

the board's style is based around the old big 12 logo and colors... which changed a few years back

1) the color scheme as is depressing and not inviting to post at... something about it just isn't inviting .. plus its not even the right colors anymore

idea 1) change the color scheme to the aac color scheme, that would also make the transition to this board easier for the posters, wont have a disorienting feeling of a new board... and its a color scheme that we know works

idea 2) i think what is depressing is the dark grey, lucky that's the color that was changed... changing the extremely dark grey border to white or an extremely light gray (like the c-usa board) to match the big 12 logo, could lighten this place up


2) the current logo looks nothing like the logo the big 12 has been using for the last few years

- updating the logo could bring new life and a new feel to the place... it wont feel like a relic when new big 12 posters try to join and see the site referencing the logo from 12 years ago

the current logo - colors

The dark grey is hard to read at times. New red, maybe white and leave the light grey.

RE: Updating the Color Scheme and logo
Pesik is right. Telling people this is a Big 12 board is like telling people the bag of Sugar O’s on the bottom of the shelf is just like Fruit Loops. At least fix the logo lol.

Hate to come off as complaining though. I’ll happily visit here even if nothing changes. Excited to be in the Big 12! Now back to my Sugar O’s…

You have to be careful on how much you copy the logo brand due to licensing/copyright agreements. We encountered this when the Cincinnati board got a skin facelift just recently. I don't have an issue with the XII logo but the "BBS" should be removed and the skin colors are uninspiring. It looks similar to the AAC board.

im aware that it can't be identical... but it should be referencing the new logo

the logo here clearly referencing the old big 12 logo, it gives the perception that the board is a relic for any first-time poster... (which is how i felt when i first came here)

but i hate the color scheme of this place

As I said in a few other threads here, the skin will be updated this weekend.

We will *NOT* be using the official logo though.

Courtesy of the interstate turning into a parking lot from an overturned tractor trailer, I didn't get to it last weekend. It's coming very soon. Think hours and days.

Can we get some blue in here. Eye bleed red sucks. I’m thinking a light blue would be good.
