Nexus 3.0 Update Update

...that's...well...odd way of putting it, but it's an update regarding an update, so it's grammatically correct :/
     Anyways, welcome! I have decided that I am going to work on the remodeling early, so voting is now closed for the theme of the blog, Here are the results:

The main color of the blog will change from Orange to Red.
The complimenting color will remain as Black.
The blog will retain some features, but will be more easy-to-access.
The layout will be a bit traditional, but with some unique aspects.

Oh boy, I have my work cut out for me. I guess "Simple Yet Cool" is the look I'm going for. Anyways, I will try to bring this update around before March, but no promises!

-Mark Borne

(CURRENT THEME IS EXPERIMENTAL, ALTHOUGH MAY BE PERMANENT IF MET WITH GREAT POPULARITY)

    1. I like it with the squares separating the posts, though. It made it more professional.
      Just you wait, I will break it.

    2. Eh, true
      And I know you will, that's why I said "yet" lol

  3. Whoa... When the site loaded on my screen, I was startled for a moment. Was not expecting the update this early! Lol. I really, really like this, though. This is so cool, and I dare say it looks better than the former design. I hope this remains permanent, since this just looks so awesome. It's a thumbs up from me!

  4. Hi, Mark. :)

    I love the colors on the blog and the easy access. But, even with my adoration with the colors, I feel they are too bold and break from the simple vibe, you're going for.

    1. Hmm...good thought :/
      But how else do you plan on having red and black work together? XD I was put in a tricky situation

  5. Oooh I like this :D

  6. I'll be honest....it kind of hurts my eyes. I think it'd be better if the background was white, and the letters black, I think the other colors would be fine with white, but this is a bit in your face.

    1. Hmm...good points :/

      Good thing I'm still working on alternatives :P The problem is, even if everyone had voted white, I've actually manually selected black background for text, so past formatting won't be as good. And even then, Idk how I'm supposed to use red and black without bright red; like, this was the darkest I could manage while it not being just plain ugly :/

      Idk, maybe I'll go rogue and use greens or blues :(

    2. The text and comments are fine, it's just the boxes really hurt my eyes. And after reading for only a few minutes, it started to give me a headache. My eyes just don't agree with this I guess. Try making the background white, and see if that looks better. Or maybe a pale orange would even be better, like a tanish.

    3. White would be too much, especially with red; maybe I'll go light grey and see if that helps. It'll take a bit, because I don't have time to actually do it right this second, but I'll try to get it done before I eat dinner

      Delete
    4. Yea, even grey might be better. Lmk when you change it

      Delete
    5. Alright, I've edited it; previous posts will look strange, now

      Delete
    6. It's a lot better, but I think the red might still be too much.

      Delete
    7. Darkened it; now it looks dark and ominous :/ My dilemma now becomes obvious lol

      Delete
    8. But it looks good like this

      Delete
    9. 'Course you think that XD

      Delete
    10. I'm serious, it looks good :P
      Much better on my eyeballs

      Delete
    11. Your eyeballs owe me one XD

      Delete
    12. That sounds gross and weird xD

      Delete
    13. That sums up my humor, Ig :P

  7. I like it. The colors are cool. It should be a super hero's colors.

Would You Rather...? (#1)

These "Would You Rathers" are small, but they're meant to start debates. Debates, not arguments! Anyways, here's the first one: "In a mystery novel, would you rather have a friend by your side helping you while risking his/her own life... ...or would you rather have your friend safe at home counting on you to solve the mystery and come out safely?"

Q/A With Shaly

This was bound to happen, like so much that the one that is probably next is I don't know... The Poet of Steel or Spitfire or Lady Knight, or just some other crazy. Plus, you guys know the drill. Mark's Addition : So...well...yeah, if anyone else wants to do one, let me know. Apparently, this is the thing to do on my blog right now, though I admit, I have no clue why.

Nexus Mad Libs

I assume most of you are familiar with what Mad Libs are. Basically, you're given a bunch of blanks to fill in, and you do so without knowing what the story is. Each blank has a part of speech labeling it, and that blank needs something that fits the part of speech. For example: Adjective: ________ --> Adjective: Explosive In the end, we usually have a hilarious end result that makes no sense whatsoever. One example is this (which is a real result I got once with my siblings): "Another way to help you fall asleep faster is drinking a nuclear glass of warm vinegar ." First, let's go over some rules. Obviously, keep it family friendly. This still goes for all blog content. Do not submit two words in a row. Submit one, and when someone else does one, you may do another. Submit through comments. That'll make it easier for me to assemble the final result. The category is Medieval Heroes . Here are the blanks: Adjective: Constipated (Kyra) Per
