How do you see TFP?
So for the last couple of years everytime I log onto TFP my default view has been TFP green. Maybe out of habit or just laziness, I don't know that is just what it's been - until yesterday. I was outside on my rooftop and couldn't see because of the glare and so I changed the view to I-Bulletin. Well that got me thinking:
What is your default view TFP and what features of that view do you like? |
TFP Green... any other version just gives me a headache and makes me nauseous.
It's like wearing someone else's clothes. It's just not right. |
See, I thought to create this exact thread because some other members were complaining that that they couldn't see the colored fonts of others because of the template that they were using.
I myself use the TFP Green because it is simple, effective, and makes the most of what is available(in terms of space). It is the clean look of it all. |
Insignia on one pc, VBulletin 3(white) on another. I don't like the green one and these two are more subtle, passing family members can't see what forum I'm in ;)
|
That is queer... the poll went from a public one to one where the votes are not shown... :hmm:
|
I use TFP Green. It is easier on my eyes.
|
fromBasics Dark. I much prefer a dark background with a light(er) foreground. This is a bit more terminal like to me. *shrug*
|
When I first came to TFP I used TFP Green for the simple reason that it was the default - it didn't occur to me to change it. I've tried some of the other themes since, but I keep coming back to TFP Green. That's just what I associate with this forum now, to the extent that the different colour schemes just don't feel right. Charlatan nailed it - it's like wearing another person's clothes.
|
Back when I used to TFP from work and had a really sucky monitor, I had to use a light-backgrounded version in order to see anything. Using my nice iMac from home, TFP Green seems to work the best for me.
|
TFP green was a little hard on my eyes. If I ever opened another browser window, the brightness would bug my eyes. I was glad when I saw that I could switch. I use insigia. I occastionally use vBulletin-3, but I love the colors of Insignia.
|
I use the standard vB3. It's simple.
|
vBulletin 3 - This works best for me.
|
I've used GREEN since I can remember and when Halx added the new styles, i tried them all for a bit but V bulletin 3 was the one that resembled the green the most.
So for now, it's only VB3. |
TFP green. For a short time I tried the other styles, but as Char. noted, it just didn't feel right. :)

vBulletin 3
Can't the mods look that up to see how many members use each? |
VB3 because it blends in with my Windows colour scheme at work, allowing me to keep it open without attracting attention.
|
Green, only because we don't still have the old version of DarkCloud.
|
Am I the only one who rocks the ibulletin grey?
|
fromBasics Dark.
I actually had to check, since I never even think about it. |
I use Insignia. If "fromBasics Dark" was full-screen, and not narrowed in to the center like it is, I would use that, because I like the color scheme. Darker is better for my eyes :)
|
Green and green only. Back on the old board I used the desert one at work but since it disappeared its green at work too
|
Dark...
I like how narrow it is. |
Green when I'm in the office or at home and vBulletin when I'm on the road with the handheld.

It did that itself - and it will not allow me to change its parameters now. ;( |
I, too, exist on the Dark side. Specifically for the narrowness, decreased eyestrain, etc... but it also makes the avatars pop.

I think most people will chose GREEN just because it's the standard colour style. If you HAD to chose when you signed up, I'm sure many would pick the different styles.
|
I use 2e_Forest. With a widescreen laptop it's hard for me when everything is so spread out and my resolution being 1440 x 900, it's just too much work to take everything in with some of the other darker and full width themes. Though from time to time when I clear my cache I use vb3, but only for quick visits to check on what's going on.
|
Green for me. I can't remember how long ago it was, but the first time I saw an anouncement that there were some new choices, I tried them for the novelty.
I don't know if it was my sucky eyes that have "floaters" when looking at anything light/white or familiarity, but I couldn't handle anything but good 'ol Green. And so it stays... Ali |
I'm diggin the insignia.
|
I-Bulletin for me. I just prefer black text on a lighter background, though people that use yellow text as a high lighter don't have this skin in mind :(
|
Green is too dark and murky for my tastes. I prefer to the default vB layout over anything else that's offered.
|
I like my I-Bulletin white. Crisp, clean and simple. The darker ones kinda make me feel gloomy. :(
|
I guess I must be looking at TFP green since I never changed anything about the default setup. I'm happy with it, it looks quite different than the several other forums I check out every day so I have that "special TFP" feeling looking at it; a couple of my other forums are vBulletin so I wouldn't want this to be the same old thing. And I remember hearing that green was more soothing to the eyes, no idea if that's true or not but it seems to be OK.
