Kosheh Makes Forums Pretty

hi hello. it's me, kosheh :0) I'm using a pretty sweet forum theme that I wrote up for VGR and it's pretty neat! and I'm gonna share it soon! (not the code tho yet, ill do that like tomorrow)

If you want to see the cool new addition, just scroll some more until you see the big, centered text.

Apart Bohemia's basically a homage to our old friend. You know who I'm talking about. )':
It's got a nice medley of blues that allow for a cool reading experience. It's like applying AXE in highschool, but to your eyes.

Apart Dark

This one's simply a remix of the default Apart themes, with a darker spin on them for those who prefer darker themes, but can't as easily get behind BoHeGeHa. It's a serenade of dark colors, with fancy text shadowing to make the stark contrast of light-text-on-dark-background a little more managable.

Now, you probably won't see those skins for a little while, because I'll deliver the source to the sheet after...things happen. You know, things that should happen on VGR.

Now, here's the reason I made this topic: I got a little more creative (okay, not by much lol) and created~~

Apart GB
(but you can call it "Game Gors" if you like)

Apart GB's basically a simplied version of one of the few AAA theme ideas I had for TSR years ago, but I was somewhat concerned that I couldn't pull it off due to the Afresh series' multiple use of images in category heads, etc. and was reluctant to create new themes for the forum (and instead simply just plopped completely themes into the database)

Also, this is the theme that I'll be less defensive over - I'll post the code later for those who are curious.
The theme also eliminates the header images for an overall more simplified look - as well as using monospace fonts for a quirky, old-fashioned look. Not quite Game Boy enough... but eh, you know, it's getting there. Tongue

It's still in need of some work, though - it still needs buttons (but if anyone wants to contribute, they're welcome to help I guess - I'll make a project thread in the spriting forums if you guys are for it - reply and let me know!) but I've got pretty ambitious hopes for this one!!

Code:
Reserved for forum code

Will post Q&A here - but I kinda have things to do and I'll type it up later. (Click to View)
Future theme ideas:

- VGR/DYKG mashup theme?
- Ideas? Suggestions? Color palettes preferred?
