Opinions please .....

As most of you know June is when we do our yearly banner contest. We've had the sage green with red and black color scheme for a couple of years now. So what I want to know is ....
 
1.   Do you still like the green, red and black color scheme?
2.   Do you want a new color scheme?
3.   If you'd like a new color scheme, do you have any ideas? So far I can't think of any other colors I like better than this. We've done purple in the past and it wasn't my favorite. I've seen blue and it's okay. I don't know ... I'm stumped I guess.
 
I need to know this because if everyone wants a change I'll do it before the banner contest so we can make our banners to match.  
 
So what do you think?

I don't mind the current color scheme, but a change would be fine, too.  I'm not a person who can come up with color schemes though.  
 
My only preference, and you've heard it before, is that the text area stays with a light background and dark type.  The other way is hard on my eyes.   Undecided

I'm not here for long so this scheme doesn't look "old" to me, but I'm never against a change!
 
Maybe blue would be great =)
 
I just made a new design for my journal with the Goos, so now i'm ready for the banner contest x)

I definitely don't mind the scheme, but I'd prefer the background as one colour instead of a pattern. It kind of distracts me, although the roses aren't bad. Maybe that's just me, though.
 
The sage green is comfortable to look at, and it compliments the red. I'd say stick with it if you don't have any better ideas (purple sounds awful).

The purple wasn't too bad but it was around here for a long, long, long time. I did receive many thanks from the guys around here when I changed it to what it is now. Might I add that I was not the Admin when it was purple Kiss
 
I think the sage is calming too. I just wasn't sure if people were starting to get tired of it like we all did with the purple. I'm okay keeping it like this if everyone likes it.

No, I like the sage too. It's different from the black/red/white combo that so many other sites have. Blue could be nice if you feel like changing it up though!

OMG....I love that Nicole. You've got me feeling all nostalgic now. I had forgotten about the blue scheme. It was here right around the time I joined and then it changed to purple.  
 
It did make me a little sad to see all the people on the site at one time. This place was so hoppin' when I first joined. It makes me wonder where everyone is now?

Cool link.
 
As for me, I still like the green you've got goin' on here.  
The color combo looks very good to me.
 
whoa! I was clicking on all those pages, and nearly got blinded by the one from April 26, 2005. Fun to read all the names of the people who were here. munkyfish, where are you? You and your foosty PEZ...

Haaaa.  It made me nostalgic too and I went hunting for a link to the message boards before this one.  I ended up on the 96-98 newsgroup archive, which had someone claiming the Goos would crash and burn on their next album (pre-Iris) and asking "what's an mp3"?.
 
As for all of the members, I guess it's due to the fact there are more online options now and the "OMG IM THE HUGEST BEST FAN EVAR!!!1111!ONE!1" crowd has thinned out and moved on to new things now that the Goos aren't as popular.
