New Theme and Old Theme

PostBy: Richard S. On: Wed Sep 09, 2009 3:32 pm

Well I have a new logo and different background for the main page and most of the others on this site, we're going green. :P

Note that Coal related forums still have the original ones. I'll probably doing this with every section and adjusting the header to better utlize the space. It will give somewhat of visual cue as to where you're at.

------edit------

Here's whole picture if anyone is interested. It's the Susquehanna River just above Meshoppen, PA looking towards Meshoppen or south or down river however you wan to look at it. That's "The Love Rocks" on the right if you're familiar with the area and easier to see in the larger version up top. The bank to the left is an island and the main part of the river is actually on the other side which is why it's so narrow in the foreground and appears to trumpet out. It's actually quite wide at this specific spot but narrows considerably down river where you can see the shore on the left farther down.

It looks good, but it looked good before. I'd like to see it skinnier/thinner? It really doesn't matter, but I'll take two Pepperoni & Onion, with extra cheese, please :D

It's commonly used as short term for Northeastern Pennsylvania. Actually the name was thought about extensively, and that was best fit that wasn't taken. Think about for second, everyone that ends up here is for product that is from NEPA. Then we have the Crossroads which is going to all points north, south, east and west. :idea: Nearly everyone on this forum lives in a state that touches Pennsylvania or nearly does and you could throw in Canada if you consider Lake Erie. It's known as the Keystone state for more than the resources. ;)

In the grand scheme I think it is a pro active way to express the anthricite benefit and difference as a cleaner source for those pro active enough to use it correctly as well as reap the best btu's around! 8-)
