Still working on the theme

11:18:03 PM
Man, but this making a themed forum template stuff is a lot of work! Here we are still up and it's nearly midnight here! I'm glad Brayen is two hours behind us. At least it's still early for him! I have a feeling we are going to be up waaaaaay too late tonight getting the theme done.

The banner is what is really looming over my head. I mean... the rest is details... what color for this, is that working well there, does this image look good enough, and why in the heck won't that color change the way I wanted?

I'm TIRED, and I want it all to work!

Thanks to Brayen it's going a bit better here, but I really am tired. I hope this Halloween template is finished soon!

Thanks must be given to Cthulu without whom this idea wouldn't have even been born.

Special Thanks
Very special thanks must be given to Corwyn for his dedication to helping with this theme. He gave up his time normally spent with me, his free time spent away from his children, extra time spent caring for and feeding by myself and his three children, and tolerated the many hours of long distance charges from Illinois to Oregon while Brayen I collaborated our thoughts minds and efforts into making and testing this very special theme. Thank you husband!
