Has anyone else noticed that the forum background looks somewhat like an orange peel flattened by a large truck? ... 8}
-
I really like it, seems exotic to me.

Funny co-incidence! Just today I was thinking about changing the background again for a more subdued tone.
I swapped my PC monitor for a different one and was quite alarmed when I visited PF and saw the difference it made to the background hue. :o
On my old monitor it's like a rich, but mellow, golden yellow colour, but on this one it's so bright I feel like I need to put on some sunglasses! 8-)
It's quite bizarre how different things can look depending on the type of monitor you have...

That is funny, on my monitor it seems soft, like saffron rather than the lemon curd yellow it used to be! Anything subdued would be welcomed by these weary eyes :-\!

Exotic, Gepetto?
How about some of your lovely Hula girls, Sylvia? ... ;D
And, some of those drinks with little umbrellas served by the swimming pool?

Richard,
The color and design reminds of a Balinese or Thai print fabric.

Alas, up here in the North Country our libations are served in pints not like in your neck of the beach Richard :lol:
Darn it now I'm digressing, sorry all :(

Too my monitores (the ones at the office and the ones at home) the background looks all nearly the same soft yellow.
Maybe you should check your monitor setting, Sylvia ;)

At home I have two monitors side by side, and it's much brighter on the new big flatscreen one, but I guess I could set the monitor darker if I wanted.
Like Gepetto, it looks like a delicate print, I was thinking Japanese kimono, because that's what I'm more familiar with. Black instead of white for the pattern would make it stand out much more.

The background seems fine to me. :) I am viewing on a wide flat screen monitor and the color comes through as lemon yellow with a delicate pattern I can only describe as "wallpaper" which seems very appropriate. ;)

The same here, I think it's fine the way it is!

That was the first thing I tried to do, but I couldn't find how to adjust the monitor's brightness or contrast at the time. Looked all over the display settings but missed finding the right tab.
I've managed to tweak it now and it has helped, I'm glad to say. ;D
