Show off your Elks!

I am curious and I would like to see how ElkArte is used, so... feel free to show what you are doing with it! ;D

I'll begin the show: http://www.elkarte.it/
As of now (Feb 20th, 2014) it's still empty, not sure what I'll do with it. Most likely I'll use to experiment with mods and stuff (do not waste time registering, I'm pretty sure sooner or later I'll break it :P).

Maybe use it as italian support forum for ElkArte?

Mine is used by a small group of gamers at 30+ of age. But I want to work a bit on the theme before I represent it here.  ;)

Nice theme & colors..
Only thing I'd change : the category colors (the text is dark on dark background, not good for my eyes). That's probably for guest only, because the category isn't hyperlinked then.

Some questions:
Is it a full theme or a variant?
How  many hours did you spend on that theme?
Was is harder / easier than building an SMF theme?

I was thinking about the changing the category text color to a light gray. It was much easier then making a theme for SMF, although I just basically did css edits. I would say all together is took me about 3 hours to put it all together and it's a full theme I can make a download of it for others to use.

Great job, the first theme not from ElkArte itself!

Great! :D

On the colors, one thing I usually use is this: http://gmazzocato.altervista.org/colorwheel/wheel.php there is also another site I mentioned, but don't remember where I put the link... :-[
Both are tools designed to test the accessibility, this one in particular is focused on helping in support WCGA accessibility guidelines for the different kinds of color blindness.

There it is, with a blue variation of ElkArte Light:

Made some changes in index.css and changed the board icons. Just one little problem: When you move the mouse over a posters name in a topic, the color of the name changes. I can't find the place in the css file?!?

Oh, wow! Pressed STRG+B by mistake. ElkArte made a [b][/b] out of this! Great!  :o  :D
