If we get a new theme here, it will probably be the only one. Supporting all the different mods on different themes is a major PITA. Like the "new" button for recent posts, probably broken by a mod. We will strike the best balance we can for stability and features.

I believe I have the "new" topic icon working properly again. Old rewrite rules carried over apparently don't need to be there. It was messing with that feature

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

The colors are driving me nuts and are on my short list to change :)

Good, because I hate it.

Please report any lingering issues in this thread.

Xiaou2 still has access, fix please. See below:

Any way to stagger the post color?   Its hard to follow white on white.   

 Even if the main post body is a darker color.. it would help some... as the white lines would help break things up.
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

the colors seem to be controlled by a combination of simple css and html image mapping

Is it just me or does it now show what section you are in? For example, if I click on Main, then it shows threads but where is the header saying this is "Main" ?
NO MORE!!

Is there a way to avoid the slider bar for large photos? (Red box in this photo.)

Maybe auto-resizing pictures w. click for full size?


When there are a number of pictures in a row, an important detail may be off screen.

In this post, TJC mentions the basketball in a photo, but it's not visible unless you move the slider.  If you don't move the slider back, you can't see the text on the left.   :banghead:

Thanks and keep up the great work, Saint and Sirwoogie!   :cheers:
