Wow! New Forum Layout Looks Gorgeous!!

Bayswater's signature above appears in blue with the dark background, and isn't readable. But all the other signatures appear with a light font. I wonder why that sig is different?

I noticed that too and changed the colour.

More readable, now.

Users can choose the colors for text in their signatures if they wish. A lot of users made decisions on that back when I was using the default color scheme which was very light. So many of the user sigs that were customized for that aren't going to work. I have no control over whatever is in the signature.

Thanks again for your efforts, James!

Thanks again for your efforts, James!

You're welcome. I was away from really working on this place for a while with a band project. Have some more time now.

O...M...G James!

For some no doubt strange reason it switched from the "original" to your fully-tweaked look overnight whilst I was AFK, so I awoke today to this very-pleasant surprise.

Brother, you've outdone yourself. This is absolutely in my Goldilocks zone and on par with my favourite themes, making for excellent, much-appreciated consistency across several forums. What a transformation! I'm blown-away.

Thank you so much for taking the time to nail this man. I cannot thank you enough; you're a scholar, a gentleman, a trooper and a star!

Glad you like it and it gets the Monkey Man poo of approval. It wasn’t without unintended consequences, however. The darker background is also affecting private messages and there are cases—I think when quoting a message received—in which the “So-and-so said” text is also dark and hard to read, but I’m just going to have to live with that.

[James Steele]

I think with the improved aesthetics and finally the ability to use attachments, things are good here. Someone tell Sweetwater!

[monkey man]

Indeed brother; thank you so much again.

The pic thing is huge for me, as is the new, tweaked theme, so dare I say it, this could well be my Snow Leopard peak for the forum.

[Tritonemusic]

My eyes thank you, James.

Many of you have asked for the user avatars to be on the left side when viewing posts. I installed an extension today that lets you do this. The way this extension is designed, I cannot force this behavior universally. If you want to use this, you must go to your UCP (User Control Panel) and set that option as show below:

I know this should make some of you very happy.

Awesome Jimbo; thanks mate!

I'm both proud and ashamed to say that I was the first to ask for both this and the darkening of the theme.

Mega kudos to you for delivering on both fronts brother. You rock man!

Believe me I remember! LOL. "This is great, but can we have... "

Talk to Doris... LOL

[monkey man]

Hey, you delivered icing when I and most of us would've been content with just cake brother.

I cannot thank you enough!

I’m a bit late to the party but WOW! What a nice update. For a moment I thought landed on the wrong forum,lol
