I can imagine the lake of tears forming in West Yorkshire already

It's motorcycle not motorbike.......and it's com not .co.uk Dave.

The only similarity is "The" and "Forum"......and nobody owns those words.

East, not West.

Still going to be fucking funny.

If something better turns up then we wouldn't use it.

It's an aged domain actually.....got history going back to 2004.

Well I think it’s a great idea.

You are right, yellow and black and awesome together.  But not for this application. 

Web colours need to work for everyone and be a background accent, not all, cool like up in your face black and yellow....?

I do want to get away from this colour combination though.......fresh new look sort of thing.

This is hard, I can spend hours working with colours for web sites....hard without testing along the way too.

But here are a few ideas:

WARM - #cc6600 - if you look at the Saturation section from the main hex code, I like the less saturated tones, 55% to 20%.  With white, black and light grey mixed in?

WARM - #996600 - A bit more "earth like"

or

NATURE - #999966 - this one caught my eye in the lightness section.  35% to 85% is nice......again with white, black and light grey all mixed in.  

It is hard with greens, but maybe something on the olive side.

 

Oh I could go on......and of course the header will have to reflect the new colours.   OH OH, look at the current header photo, see the sun and then the blue / grey in the clouds, that is a nice combo too.  I really like that warm sun colour. 

 

If any of this doesn't make sense just let me know.  ?

As I've said, an EMD (Exact Match Domain) has benefits.....certainly in the initial phase! However, the drawback is zero brand awareness and identity.

Going back through our lineage there was Bikezone, Gigabikes, and MaximumBikes......each had a distinct branding.

The Motorcycle Forum has none......and that's the problem! So domain suggestions still welcome!

That is a fair point Keith......but do we really want to have this place full of pathetic people who get offended by everything?

Look at Facebutt or Twitter......we're not allowing anything that they wouldn't. And in fact, the race hate and gore that's permitted on there wouldn't be tolerated here.

So in reality we're actually stricter than those places.

its nice to have potential flouncers...i enjoy the challenge .
