As you can see the forum colour set up is now footloose green however this is not the only option. If you do not like the green colour of the forum you change to one of the two alternative skins
heathcliffe blue and test
heathcliffe blue is as expected a blue skin and test is a mauvey purpley skin
Have a play around and see which is your favourite by going into modify profile and scrolling down to where it says skin with a drop down menu.

Did I not get round to renaming Test? I'll do that now...
It's now Marketable Magic Mauve.
Which also reminds me that I forgot all about making up those other skins I said I would. Oops...

Red and grey for UM... IW would be maybe green and brown? KS would be black and white really.

urm, the grey is really more of a pale brown, like desert camoflage, and theres red too.

Trying to get a bearing as to how grey/brown you want it... Is the following too brown (and needs to be more grey), or does it need to be a different type of brown, or what?

I would say a slightly greyer brown, but looks good!

why are there now like 10 different ones including 'sparkle light'- I don't think she deserves her own colour... and where did kung-shoe red come from?

I had about 5 test ones in, which were just found online. They weren't really intended for use, but I was playing around with them to see if any were tweakable into something that was, or just to get some more experience with skins in general.
They were, of course, merely called things like "Pale Test #1" or "Dark Test #2", thus indicating their temporary/soon-to-be-deleted nature. Apparently Stuart failed to realise this, and has gone through and given them all proper names. Because, you know, he's a twit.

I just thought as they were already there i might as well try and give them names and i couldn't find the original thread where emily said what colour kung shoe was meant to be so i had to guess

I would like to state... I like pale test #1 (or whichever one this light blue nonsense I'm looking at is... it's not the heathcliffe though)

Huh. I'm using Pale Test #1 too. It's strangely calming....

heheheh- I can make that the default if enough people like it- OR send me links to places/ colour schemes you like and i will mimic them! theoretically I could make everyone their own theme! (killing time ftw)

I'm also using Pale Test 1. The only issues I've seen with the other skins are the text being too low-contrast to comfortably read, and colors being too bright/intense/saturated. (Just, something to keep in mind if you keep tinkering with colors.)
