Forum Name Colour

[Zenerdiode]

The 'Junior Member' blue, is too similar (to me anyway) to the 'Ross-Tech Employee' blue - and I sometimes get confused at a quick glance.

Would you consider a different colour for them Uwe?

Will gray do?

Yes, I think that will be quite apt.

Thanks,

Much improved, thanks and great idea.

This old colourblind guy won't be tempted to answer pirates queries anymore and it will make it easier to see who's whom

@Santos Would you reintroduce the yellow bar for Professional User, purple bar for Distributor and maybe black bar for Pirate, please?

Santos is on vacation this week. I'm not sure how practical it would be with the Xenforo software to color-code the user type (i.e. the "Verified VCDS User" under your name). But I suppose could add "badges", like the green "Verified" with a green background under yours.

Yes, that's what I meant by the bar, the "badges"

Well digging through things, it seems I've got the name wrong too. They're actually called banners.

Let me see what I can do.

I've tweaked the badges some to make user statuses more immediately obvious. See here, and take a look in the Hall of Shame as well. Unfortunately there is no white-on-black badge for Pirates. I believe it can be done, but will require tinkering with the forum's CSS files, and I'm not entirely comfortable doing that. So for the time being, Pirates are red. There's also no purple for distributors. Hopefully @Santos can make those banners.

Pirates are red

are you saying that they're russians ?

Just noticed today, the subtlety of using light green for VCDS-Lite users is not lost on me either.
