For the record, I like colorful backgrounds (though I don't dislike this one) and don't find them distracting so maybe a vote is in order?

Yeah, why don't we make a thread that has a poll attached to it so we can do something about that?

Could we have it set up like The Resource where you choose what theme you want?

While I like that you guys chose Pokémon over Advanced Warfare or The Master Chief Collection. I'd love to see this in colour as opposed to monochrome. I don't think it's that distracting.

Also, how do you guys choose what backgrounds to have each month?

That wouldn't really work here. The forum shares the same overall template with the site and it would be very difficult to skin the forum separately from the site as a whole.

We generally go with the biggest new release of the month (that we care about). Smash Bros for Wii U is obviously a big name this month but since we did Smash Bros last month, we had to go with something else. We agreed that the new Pokemon games outweighed both Call of Duty and Halo (which are basically the same game now - a sad day since I miss non-Call of Duty-style Halo).

Template is 404'd. :(

Otherwise, I'd make some attempt to make a Majora's Mask one.

For April, can we change the background to Mortal Kombat X?

The background hasn't been changed in quite a while, maybe it's time for a new one, preferably Mortal Kombat X.

I'm not sure if I really like it or I was just bored of the last background, but I think I like this one alot more then the last one.

I'm also going to say that I forgot about the background after awhile, only every now and again noticing that it was still the same.

I've wanted to change it for a while but we've been so close for so long now that we decided it made more sense to just finish the new layout and launch with a new background. It just took a little longer than anticipated initially which is why we were stuck on the old one for so long. In hindsight, we probably should have just changed it sooner but hindsight is always 20/20 and we were focused on the new features instead.

Might be time for a new one.
Arkham Knight just came out, God of war 3 remaster is coming out, Splatoon and Witcher 3 came out the end of May, Skullgirls 2nd Encore is out as of the 7th...
Pickings are a bit slim I guess until MGSV in September.

There's the slightest chance we forgot to do this on the first... Thanks for the reminder! We'll get on it shortly.

I would go with Deception IV or Wolfenstein for this month.

Next month, I'd go with Rare Replay..... or if you want to make everyone really sad, Madden.

This is maddening.
