Pixel Sage has done two proof-of-concept themes for the Great CB Update. Battletech is cool but not what I want CB to look like by default. Jet is much closer to what I want but I'm not sure if so much black is the right way to go either. Here is what Jet looks like.

While the rewrite is happening there will only be one theme supported. Should we use Jet as-is, or get Pixel to make one like Jet, but with reds and grays like the current Default?

I like the Jet in the example, but a red and gray version would be more classic CB. Also, the CB logo in the corner could use some work....a little more flash or something :)

Change it just a bit

I like the jet-concept a lot, it is so cool! Personally i would like a red one even more tho :D

Also, would it be possible that you add some kind of deviders in the minion section, like between the basic stats and the enchantments/spells?

But i must say: GREAT WORK!

This is made of Win.

CB will look so slick :) I voted Jet, but with red and gray, because I think that's part of CB's charm.

To all you guys working on the new look: THANKS!

Red/Grey

Would be awesome red/grey :)

keep CB how it is

I've been part of CB for over 4 years, and I'd think there should be an option to keep it how it is :)

-- [P]Mitt

red/grey

Red/grey

-- 48Zach

OPTIONS!

i dont care what we get as long as we get more of them, more backgrounds, more items, more penalties, more skills, more more more....

-- Unappreciated Misnomer

Black and green please

Some of us are trying to play at work, you know. ;)

-- QBBast

I like the black

But a red/black look would be even slicker than either choice

-- QBBarzooMonkey

Or blue and gray? It's been my favorite setup since I started playing.

-- phrog

I would like a Red/Gray as well... and the black could be an option in the skins list.

If going for black, might want to check out http://www.elveron.com/elveron/index.jsp
A game I used to play when I had more time, and they have the most eye friendly black based background I've ever seen for an online stats game.

SNK4R-style Theme

How many people even use the default as a color scheme any more? I find the colors hideous, or maybe it's just the texture of the text, or maybe it's something that I can't pin-point.

Anyway, I'm with Bast on this one, with a SNK4R-style theme. Black and green, baby!

-- SNK3R

Battletech

I prefer the new Battletech theme pixel made.

-- Relic

either/or

I really don't mind at all what happens, as long as we get a modern CB!

-- Flamey

Red and grey please!

Only because it's the same colours as one of my databases at work. Kind of a funny co-incidence that isn't it?

-- QBJohnnywas

Red and Gray

Jet Is good looking but I have to agree we need some red. =]

-- [MM] Theatre Of Tragedy

How about a special halloween theme?

-- {EQ}Viperboy

that's what I thought of when I saw SNK4R's theme for the first time, Halloween >:)

-- sooka

I voted for my original jet, but looks like I'll be creating a red version due to votes.

-- QBPixel Sage

Default ftw!!

I use it, it is the bestestness! :p

-- spydah

I like the Jet

The Black Jet Theme would be very cool, But Red and Grey is Classic. Might I suggest a choice to use various skins, with 'red & gray' and 'black' as options.

Just some food for thought!

-- Emperor Steve

When i came to CB2 after cb1 i tried to get supportership ASAP to get away from the red, =)

-- smallpau1 - Go Blues

NOT voting - they both hurt my eyes

whatever you do PLEASE keep modern mono for a theme. its the less flashy-gamey theme which is perfect for working folks who dont need to draw un-wanted attention.

i bet the little hackers love jet tho especially if you make it matrix green, lol

-- drudge

I'm also with Smallpau...

I couldn't stand the red and grey. First thing I always do is get away from it as fast as possible.

Why do you think I became supporter the _first day_ I made an account BOTH on CB1 and CB2? Good grief...please no red and grey...
