Presenting "Cemetech Retro"

[KermMartian]

Over the past several weeks, the GMods and Administrators of Cemetech have been working together to build a spiffy new theme for Cemetech, called "Cemetech Retro". It hearkens back to the early days of Cemetech, when cool DHTML / Javascript tricks and bold color schemes reined. This particular iteration of the Cemetech style builds on Cemetech6's clean and easy-to-use layout, adding more color and contrast for a more appealing, more vibrant site. We've also changed the font styling to present a more youthful and laid-back feel to members, also a nod to Cemetech's early years. For now, Cemetech Retro has been set as the default theme for all user accounts; once we finish working out all the kinks, and accept the users' suggestions as to how we can make it even more appealing, we will be figuring out how to keep it side-by-side with Cemetech6 for users who still want the old, blander, more formal site style.

Enjoy Cemetech Retro, and many thanks again to Jonimus, ComicIDIOT, Merthsoft, Tanner, TIFreak8x, and the others who have contributed their invaluable HTML talents and brainstorming towards this Cemetech refresh!

Edit: And yes, I know that it's April 1st; it's an unfortunate coincidence, but I assure you no less real.

Edit #2: Happy April Fools! The April Fools 2011 theme, CemetechRetro, is now available as an alternative for Cemetech for the sake of posterity. You can use it via the Edit Profile link at the top of the left sidebar.

Hey, you didn't go with the old mouse you used for the older versions of cemetech. You know the one that would only actually change in IE so you most likely forgot about.

This is exactly what I was pushing for. Good work, this'll be a nice standard for the rest of the web.

Thanks Alex! I appreciate your keen artistic eye in designing this new theme for Cemetech. Also, people may have noticed that I'm making progress towards switching out the maroon bars with proper green ones.

Yup, I'm glad to say. C6M will be making the switch soon as well.
