so i saw a wonderful video by youtube user PhireFox on the new theme (that hasn't struck my monitor yet of course) and so of course i'm sitting here thinking "Y'know, I like it, but I've got two complaints," and what better place to complain than s&i, right? Anyways, complaint one: nav bar does not need to be on the side it is pointless and ugly. it's beautiful, but in the wrong place.
now the SECOND complaint, the ACTUAL for-real suggestion: The navbar's color. The main site's color scheme is white and blue, and then suddenly a black navbar. Now of course, this got me thinking. Initial thoughts were "The navbar should be blue!" but then i thought about it and i realized "But wait! Blue is boring! We should be able to pick our own colors!" so here we are: CUSTOMIZABLE THEMES. BRILLIANT. Being able to pick the color of the navbar, all of the pages, and all of the elements such as the forum icons and such (that last one i'm not too sure about how possible it is but it would be nice and i think is possible kinda). Now of course, ROBLOX is sitting there at their desks thinking "This is brilliant! But how do we make money off of it?" So here's what I suggest: BC members get more customization. They can enter hex values, while NBC members can select from a set list of colors. Simple. Not much, doesn't affect anything, and overall looks pretty. I guess maybe OBC could choose custom icons for things or something, that would be cool.
Of course, you might be sitting there thinking "Pointless! Why do such a trivial thing?!" and to that I respond "It looks nice! Also, I'm mostly online at night so I'm being selfish and wanting a darker theme!" so please do consider this idea and let's face it, there's nothing BAD about it. Don't want it, and want the old, boring, current theme? Fine! Keep the old boring default theme! Doesn't affect anyone else!
And of course I'm thinking as I'm writing so post-suggestion I'm going to say: What if you could go to other users' profiles and have an option to preview their theme to see if you like it and want to replicate it? Another small and trivial thing but I would love it.
P.P.S. yes i am aware roblox used to have like the three themes but now not only do we have two (one of which is accessible by OBC members only) but this would be much more customizable |

How about being able to upload a picture for the background? Other players wouldn't see it anyways, so there would be no point for moderation over it. |

Sky, that's not a half-bad idea, although with the whole part "What if you could go to other users' profiles and have an option to preview their theme?" that i threw in there, some moderation might be required (but only if the part in quotes is added)
of course, to fix the moderation dilemma, background images could be BC+ because a) not as many people would be uploading images and b) i doubt people are going to pay money to upload some inappropriate image that maybe one person might see |

@FruitTheRobot
The background image files could be huge and if we had loads of them being uploaded to the ROBLOX servers, then there will be lag and that would be another reason why it should be BC only. |
