Drey posted a screenshot once, but here's one again.

Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

:o What kind of theme doesn't embrace purple?!

Ummm...guys I know. I was joking.  :-X




My sister sent me this screenshot after I had a discussion with Narita, in the  Shadow in the Hills critique thread. Narita discribed to me how difficult it was to read, at first I couldn't understand what she was talking about.  When my sister sent the shot I then understood why Narita was having difficulties. Thing is I use the default theme, and I like it very much for the colors. I cannot help that the purple doesn't show up well on Karyuu's theme. The only thing I can suggest to solve this issue of having it not so hard to read is to take the curser and highlight the text.

As I see it, it is just people trying to be different (thus seeking attention)... different isnt something you try to be its something you are. So basically those people are just lame...

Not that I'm having a go, just how i see things.

off topic ftw!

Well actually I don't post in blue for attention, just to be different so I'm just going to keep on pissing Drey off and keep posting in blue. Seems to me the topic for this thread changed a bit too.  ;D

I can't find a deadline for the voting to end. Is it listed somewhere and I missed it?

That's kind of the most important thing for now.

Well nice to know you feel that way, now let me tell you the REAL reason I post in color. I am not a sheep. I don't follow the flock. Yes of COURSE I do it to be different. I like that I have personality. Plus I adore the color purple and I use the default skin so it looks nice. So in plain english I use it cause it makes ME happy. As for doing it to get attention .. Drey give me a friggin break! I don't need the color in my posts to get attention on these forums and you damn well know it. I just have to make an issue out of something ...... To just rack it up to me wanting attention because I like to use color, that is just so sad. It is a weak argument, oh and not to mention petty. Sorry Drey I would believe you weren't having a go ...  if you didn't try and insult as you stated your point, but you did.

A deadline for voting?  Guidelines for what makes a winning sig? I suppose the contest would need these things.  Since there seems to be nothing more than a decent idea followed with a 'dumb' snarky remark to those who are participating, some off-topic nit-picking and such ... please excuse my entry as well.  

I would be more than happy to support and participate in a contest coordinated by someone more mature and experienced with following through with things.  

I think purple font is a hell of a lot better than wee-little yellow font, anyhow.  :P

Probably best not to post things you do not mean. People have a tendancy to read what is written.

@Santiago: I agree.

@Nividia Stormlance: I am very pleased to hear you didn't mean it. I am sorry th contest didn't work out but perhaps you would like to hold another? It just needs abit rules and guide lines. If you need help, I will more than happily lend a hand, or my text and thoughts. It is up to you. :)

Or you can save time on your posting by dropping the colour tags :P

I tend to skip over anyone who writes in color.  If you're going to use a color however, at least be kind enough to use one that is not bright.  I mean, seriously, that's just not being very considerate to those of us with...sensitive eyes..
