Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.
Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.
Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?
Ah, you're one of the wtf-ridiculously-bright-monitor people. I will never get you.Mmm. I'm not a fan of repeating background images like the wavythings, but at least it transitions smoothly.
I think the problem with the "black boxes" is that it doesn't appear to fade into black very well; I can see them, too. If the post (or at least the signature) is too long you can see fairly clearly where the image stops and the background color begins. It's not as distracting as it could be, but it is there. Eh, I hope I explained that clearly enough.
Not my favorite style ever, but it's nice. And dark. D: I needed a dark style. So I'll probably use it until something else comes along.
Oh, and why do the link colors look almost exactly the same as the regular text colors? D:
