Can that quote box be a black outline along with the text?

Did you just change the header, or am I about to have a really good Saturday?

I think it looked better before but just make the text white. It's kind of depressing now.

Are you using standardized ProBoards colors or HEX codes?

It's really difficult to explain just how limited I am with the changes. I can't simply go in and change the text color for certain boxes, or the outline color for quotes. It only lets you break the text down into three sections: header text, forum text, and quote text. Changing the forum text changes every single color for every single word that isn't a header or a quote, and unfortunately the quote boxes work the same way, in which changing the overall border colors would change those as well. I'll temporarily switch them to black though, so you can check out how it looks. Let me know what you think.

It only gives me a very limited number of color choices.

Weird...Every ProBoards I've ever used you can put in HEX Codes.
It usually has these options:
Text Color
Link Color
Active Link Color
Visited Link Color
Title Background Color
Title Text Color
Category Background Color
Category Text Color
News Title Background Color
News Title Text Color
News Background Color
News Text Color
Window Background 1
Window Background 2
Board Highlight Color
Thread Highlight Color
Table Border Color
Maybe it has changed significantly? Anyway, I agree with Shax and FD that the white font would still be easier to read but good work anyway.

Pea, I ran into this same speedpoop last year. There are WAY more colors available to you than the ones in the dropdown menu in the section of the board that you are tinkering with. Look up the HEX color index:
http://www.johncfish.com/bggallery/otherchart/index.htm
You have all those to work with. I wouldn't change ANYTHING except for, yeah, some of the forum index hyperlink colors.
It looks really fucking fantastic, and really shows just how much of an eyesore that blue thing I made was.

...what that is going to entail is typing in the corresponding HEX code, as opposed to just selecting the color from the spectrum in the forum's dashboard.

Right. What HG said. I know you use Photoshop, Pea. When you eyedrop over a screenshot of the Sasquatch website it will give you a "#" and then a collection of numbers and letters. That is the HEX Code. Then you just have to copy and paste it where you want it to get a better match.

I would reccomend using these HEX codes as a starting point based on the look and match you are trying to achieve:
5d3419
171a15
bb8c41
8a522f
bf8842
885629
ffffff (white)
000000 (black)
