Zeebu - Is it a mixed content warning? - this site is https but some of the images are not. Browsers can be configured to block mixed content, but it breaks loads of stuff, e.g. you'd see errors all over the forums when other people think it's fine.

Forum search isn't working either. Searching "client performance" should return this, but doesn't.

Sigs Enabled Again

Enabled sigs again. So many strange things they thought to disable globally on the migration. What is the purpose behind that, disabling sigs when someone clearly has a sig? At the very least, disable it globally for new users, but enable it for anyone who had a sig in 4. Yech.



Aren't These Themes Just Great

We still need theme hunters to improve this awful selection. I'm using "Cerium-D Cocoa Black" but it's still ... not good.

Check around, see what you like, post links in this thread, let's get this garbage sorted, eh?

I'll pay for a decent theme if someone finds one and it's pay-only.

Sure give me forum admin access and I'll make you a few themes. Which will never happen, because of your superiority complex.

I usually grab versatile theme templates based on functionality... and then I change the graphics manually, so if I really like Cerium-D -Cocoa Black then I would go into the code and change all it's colours manually then add custom made buttons. I already have a library of buttons and other forum assets saved in my Development folder.

This is how I like doing dev work, by actually being able to do it myself. If you don't like it, then do it yourself!

An example of simple forums I made 6 years or more ago. I did all the colours, buttons, headers for it etc. http://deathstarbattle.catsboard.com/

You realize you can literally login whoever actually owns these forums, access the template code, and change the colours to black and off-black/charcoal, and this cocoa theme is basically remade in 10 minutes? right? The yellow header and buttons already go with a black background... Like come on...

We had a great forum style for years called Purple something... it was like a white/grey with some purple (or other colored) accents, and was quite pleasing.

I don't know what has happened, but these forums are not so good.

Can we go back to the old style?

It's not Trixerium Governor Bay? Seems a bit purplish with white. If you scroll to the bottom of the page entirely on the left side of the screen there is skins menu for the forums.
