Post by: acraig on September 03, 2011, 02:28:42 am: We can certainly change up things on it to make it more presentable. It was a fairly major forum software update and the old theme did not work at all. If there any particular issues that you feel are outstanding we can take a look at those.

Post by: bilbous on September 03, 2011, 04:01:39 am: I suck at skinning stylistically, myself, but instead of creating rude polls I prefer to offer suggestions in threads working to improve the display. If I felt extremely ambitious I could download samples (http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/) and try to create my own.

I would smite this poll.

Post by: Vakachehk on September 04, 2011, 08:21:54 am: I personally don't really like it, and I cant see how many PMs I have unread unless I click on 'My Messages'. However it is far better than the old one!!

P.S This poll is stupid and pathetic, you have useless multi-choice answers, and nothing in between yes and no.

Post by: BoevenF on September 04, 2011, 04:29:01 pm: That's strange, for me the number of unread messages is showed between brackets beside "my messages" menu. What browser are you using?

Post by: bilbous on September 04, 2011, 08:24:03 pm: I'm using firefox on linux and no # of messages show but there are no new messages to show so perhaps that is why.

Post by: LigH on October 25, 2011, 09:22:22 am: One of the most annoying issues, acraig, is the bright background of CODE blocks behind the text which is almost as bright. With my rather linear monitor brightness curve I am rather lucky to be able to read it, but people with the usual average consumer flatscreens with overbright gamma values will have more problems than me reading it.

Code: [Select]
bright on even-brighter
