Hey Dan,

Can we have an option to remove this green theme from the page? It's not easy on the eyes, and may help with getting more users to use these forums. Maybe have some graphics to spruce up the look and all Wink

Thank you for the reminder.

Fact is I like this theme. Smiley It goes a little bit with the green on my other site. Web design tends to be a bit hit or miss anyway. Opinions vary a lot.

However, you're right that users should be allowed to opt to something that's more to their taste, so I have enabled members to change the theme/color, and I'll probably add a couple more themes later on.

Yes, I should at least consider having a proper logo. Smiley

Update: 3 new themes installed, and default theme changed. This one I hope, will give the forum a bit more personality (marketing speak enabled in this post Tongue). There's still no real logo, one that would be identifiable with this forum, though what the theme shows by default, might pass for one. Smiley

Truthfully, I like this new theme. The more I use it, the more I like it. Hopefully you and the other members will like it as well. If not, I think you guys (and gals) have plenty of theme choices now anyway.

The trouble with the old one was that it was so simple (I still do like simple, clean web design) that it probably made it hard for some users to spot the buttons and post/start new topics, especially some months ago when even the buttons/action links were green. A couple of times even I had trouble determining what button was associated to what post.

Anyway, we'll see how this goes. Smiley

Looking forward to more feedback from everyone.
