Nope, from the start it was either going to be green or blue, and blue seemed a little too facebook-ish, so we went with the green. But to be honest, we've been so busy with coding the past few months, haven't had much time to do a whole lot of experimenting with different color schemes. That said, layout, design, etc., is what we're going to be focusing on till we launch in mid-August. Any suggestions on that end? And yep, its pretty much a forum with reddit/digg features. But I don't think its a bad thing... from personal experience, everytime I browse around on a forum, I wish I could just filter by votes instead of the standard "Recent" sorting most forums utilize. And as I mentioned earlier, I think the biggest selling point is that you can post threads that link to interesting threads on other forums/discussions. If you try doing that on most forums these days, its usually an insta-ban :0 (but that's understandable, since they have no self-moderation system, a.k.a. voting, to remove spammy links).
