Dark Mist (?)

[combus]

Hi all,

I'm working on a new theme, I currently have not many ideas on what to adopt into it. The only planned thing so far is to make a tableless index. You can tell by the name that it's a dark theme

Here's the general concept of the theme looking:
   

If you have any ideas/comments please post them here! (And also suggest a better name if you have one )

I would say make it less sqaure and more grunge like on the edges to get the mist feel. Also don't make to so transparent it may get a little hard to read.

I feel iffy about it, the logo is bad. Your could probably add 'mist' or speckles on the header. I don't know if I'm making sense.

Well the logo is just text . Although I never really look at that with themes because I'm going to change it anyway.

True, but good presentation never hurts! Lol.

I was planning to make the logo text-based, but that was at the start of the theme Now, it woulnd't be possible without using CSS opacity. So you suggest it to make the theme more 'mist-ish' Never really thought about making it like that. But I'll try to see what comes accross. I'll also add something on the back of the logo since anyways the big image will be there.

About the squar'ish look, I tried to make it relaxed. But I'll also try something differerent. Though, it might look confusing isn't it? Because anything would be contourned... and would be diffuse or maybe just adding a cartoon'ish look to it? But that would kill the current purpose of the theme... hmm *stops what he's doing and starts thinking*

I think I just wrote random thoughts

Personally, i like the look of it but just softening up the edges would be nice

[combus]

Great you like it About softening the edges, you mean shape-wise or color-wise?

[Dom W]

Shape wise, just kind of take the corners of a tiny bit

Kind of reminds me of a forum/theme an old friend of mine made: http://stardepot.org/?act=forumindex.
