I think maybe that the admin wanted FAC to look "more professional", like DeviantArt. That's just a hunch.

But there's a difference between looking professional and looking almost like DA. Since you can give a website a professional look and feel without making it look gray.

Nutral color scheme was chosen to make the art stand out more and look better.

Most online art sites use a neutral color scheme.

If you want the old blue color-scheme go to funart-central.net

It's hard to provide a neutral color that [i]isn't[/i] gray. We discussed a few color schemes early on but couldn't agree on much of anything.

But if you like the blue and white better, as denis says, check out FAC's little sister site, [url]www.funart-central.net[/url]. That's right, "Fun"art central. Yes, it's something of a pun and has only one letter difference from FAC. But the color scheme is pretty nostalgic.

Beige or sepia can work too from a neutrality point of view but don't really look as good IMO.

Yeah, 'cause for the record I voted french grey. Which is basically beige.
