    Colormatic Headache

    Posted 17 years 7 months ago
    • If you go into McDonalds with $3.00 in your pocket and look at the menu it's easy to make a decision because your options are limited. If you go in with $100.00 in your pocket, the decision takes longer because you can have anything you want, you end up reading the entire menu.

      Most templates come with a few choices and making a selection is easy. I've spent the past few hours trying out just some of the available options and I've come to a final decision five times now. I've made 5 headers and every time I "finish" I decide "maybe I'll try just one more". I was going to flip a coin but I couldn't find one with 15 sides.

      I guess I should go ahead and make 15 headers and turn the template chooser on. This way I can pass the headache on to my users.

      So, you're saying the template is versatile and unlike any of the other competitors with limited options?

      d. ;)

    • How easy is it to put the colour changer thingy in the control panel?

    • I'd say you would make a custom/user module place small screen shots of each color, add the links to change templates to each then publish in the header module position.
    • Don't think, Feeeeel... It is like a finger pointing to the moon. (slap) Don't concentrate on the finger or you'll miss all that heavenly glory.

    • After re-reading my 1st post, I forgot to put that it's a good problem to have. I like the versatility of it. So many good choices I want to use them all. ;D

      But which one? ???

      I have an idea. I'm going to start drinking 1 pint for each color. If I make it to 15 I'll start over. Whatever number I stop on, that'll be my new site.

    • You know what I did? Ad some code that changes the style based on the day of the month - that way, users can enjoy everything colormatic has to offer!

      That sounds like a fine idea...I think I will do the same! ;D

      CHEERS!

      Wow! Mack don't do it!

      Thanks for the clarity! You're message came thru! Yes, it's very versatile! Almost too versatile - in a good way, yes.
