About custom backgrounds
I can't quote and refer directly to all the posts about the backgrounds (grrr character limit). But I'll attempt to cover what's been mentioned
My biggest concern is that some people will go crazy and the forums will become unreadable, or the images become just too distracting.
I'd also need to employ a similar system to the custom avatars, where I approve, upload and host the images.
There is quite a few other things as well, currently blacklist, image quota don't apply to backgrounds. They don't always work well in quotes and there's other small but annoying issues.
It works on this thread because custom background colours aren't a thing. That's another thing to consider.
I'd have to make it optional, and I have a feeling over time it's something that most people would have turned off.
I have to weigh up the time and resources needed to do this and then look at what end result is. I then ask myself is it worth it for me and the forums.
Anyway that's my concerns, they are here to stay on this thread for the foreseeable future so hopefully some discussion about this will continue

The above post gave me an idea. Can linkify provide a code block tag/formatting? (not syntax highlighting, just showing a box around the code and possibly coloring it differently than the rest of the post.)
Cool coffee cup btw
I'll look into it, I should be able to do something maybe even with syntax highlighting.
Weyburns said :
also maybe add a bottom centre function, using bottom left/right to centre something from the bottom is a little annoying
I can add a few more options.
However with your images I'd suggest making a single skull image by just cropping the skull so its roughly an icon size.
Then add your black background: stretched.
Then float the skull icon bottom left, and the same skull icon again bottom right.
This way when quoted everything still works and nothing is cut off.
Kind of like this (two images)....

The custom backgrounds are neat.

Hate to be a party pooper, but 2 pages and I already find those image backgrounds annoying and quite distracting...
(Except the ones that kinda fit the forum theme, like those gargoyles, but still).

thank you for the example, I was thinking more so using it as an extension of the signature section of the forums, adding different pictures or w/e. That way I can ensure that my text won't get obscured by any images in my original post.
I was just messing around and using multiple pictures as a test
