CtP2, the other ones are all too dark (but quite frankly I'm not too fond of the Ctp2 one either).

Does this mean that the post colors will change (as an option) from the current two tones of gray to similar color(s) of the new color?

Do they have to be game-related? I mean, I like the Saffron CtP2 colour, but the rest are just dreary. Come up with some lighter stuff...

Of the choices, CTP II is the best. The rest are nearly the same. I do like the AC word color though.

Blue has always seemed right for Apolyton. I think the Dinos scheme fits the best. Plus, what else are you going to use it for?

The blue of dinos is the best in my opinion.

But in the end I would stay with the normal gray colors for the forum so I would advise not taking the time to do this unless you actually have time.

Out of all of them, the Alpha Centuri scheme was easiest on my eyes.

I tend toward those colors when I have a choice (as in a destop), anyway.

I don't feel the need for other colour schemes than the one we've all grown used to. Gray scale colours are much easier on the eyes - and much more neutral when you're visiting Apolyton from work (looks like most of the office applications we use, at least from a distance).

Have you sensed a strong desire from users to have alternative colours Markos?
