Predictable post: how do I make this look as close to how it used to as possible? :( :( :(

EDIT: Ok, changing it to simple blue is a pretty good start I guess, gets rid of the bizarre horrible borders at least.

Thanks for the skins, the mobile one isn't quite as lovely as the oh-so-perfect pda optimised one on the old forums but it's much easier than the default.

Edit: ooh, I like the hideable quote/edit buttons. An improvement! :D

Ohhh..I like the Mother Night one. Thank you!

^this, thanks for the skin. The upgrade itself made me facepalm, but this makes it better.

How...how do I change the skins? I don't think I ever changed the old skin...meep.
Ayisdra2011-10-10 19:58:00
Shul, at the bottom of the forums (any) there is "change theme" click that and select the one you want.

I also echo the thank you for the Mother Night theme.

I hadn't ever either. It's in the bottom left hand corner where it says "Change Theme".

Thank you! I couldn't seem to find it as my eyes were unable to comprehend much due to the skin I had been defaulted to. Sorry but the Lusternia Main is not as bad as the blazingly bright white but twas BLUH.

Aha! Thankies. I still liked the old one. It fitted on my screen nicely.
Kayaldiyah2011-10-10 20:06:24
So...does anyone know how to add to our "Like" quota? Since we didn't seem to start with any. That's actually an added feature that I'm excited about.

Added a new forum skin that I liked so much that I made it our default.

Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to change the header font for our name but it's still pretty nice.
Stangmar2011-10-10 20:20:55
My only complaint so far is the location of our usernames in posts. It just throws me off. Other than that, once I get used to the appearance, I'll be fine.
Daereth2011-10-10 20:22:24
Here's a question. The old one, our profile picture and avatar picture were different. With this one, I can't seem to find my profile picture period nor where to change it from. I am assuming they are now the same thing? Or am I incorrect?

Is there any chance of getting a skin that's more like the default dark-brown-on-light-brown look of the previous forums? I can't really do white/black, and the Night skin is actually worse for me in terms of readability than the other options. :unsure:

You'd like some nice reds, wouldn't you? WOULDN'T YOU!?

No, actually red is one of my least favorite colors! I just need everything to be brown because I'm a freak who can't read. Even my Lusternia is brown.

I could really go for some blue-grey like the old Orlachi skin. That one was really nice.

What about the new default forum skin? It's an off white.

It's ok, color-wise, but the borders and margins make it... "thinner" would be the word I guess. Then again, I'm using 1440x900 resolution, so it could just be my perception of it. The Simple Blue skin fits with room to spare on my screen.
