Ligher theme

  Top of Page

Hi guys,

Can we please have a light theme for these forums?  The depressing dark theme actually keeps some of us old farts from these forums.

Also, I'm scared to view these forums at work because a look at the dark window will instantly show that I'm not visiting a site that I should be!  At least a light theme can be seen as a legit forum with work-related info!!

Just enable the default vBulliten them or something!  Please!!!

Yeah a light theme would look really nice. I think the skylinesaustralia theme looks fantastic I think a light background with the orange and grey in it will look nice. But I got nothing wrong with the theme atm. But its pretty hard to look at it without people saying "whats that?" or "what you looking at?".

Would be good to have a choice for those that need it, I prefer the darker themes as they don't make my eyes burn.

What Nark said a lighter theme would be cool, most forums gives us a choice of a few themes would be cool if we could do that here.

Yeah I am definetly up with a colour theme choice. I also do like Lance's suggestion it would be good if we could do something like that or like SAU but interperate the Ozlib Orange and grey into it.

im all for keeping it how it is.its original and not boring. but...i think maybe there should be a 2nd colour avialable, like a SFW (safe for work) one that is simple.
this SFW one could also have no siggs,piks or avatars shown as default

I think the default vBulletin one is good.  No effort for the admins to turn it on and it's a generic theme that could be any site...

Turning sigs and avatars off is only something that can be done in a user's profile, I don't think it can be done at a theme level.

I think a lighter theme would be great.

Personally I wouldn't use it, because I like my corneas to NOT be burnt out, but some people like something a little less depressing than grey wink

probably just change the tilt you have on your laptop (happens to me as well), either that or the contrast?

i'm all for choice too! its the artwork involved and making it mesh with the forum already implemented thats the drama, i'll put it to FOZ13 and see what we can come up with!

i agree that it may be difficult to disguise the forums at work due to the dark theme, but at night i find it more friendly to the eyes than a white background.

At the risk of arguing for the contrary :help: , I would use and support these forums far more if
1. The background was white (ish)
2. The sponsors banner was left at the top or bottom of the page, not in the middle of the message

PLEASE!

its being discussed by admin and mods at the moment, the site won't be changing in a hurry, but we are discussing the addition of an option to change to a lighter skin in the users control panel.

Hi have been having a lazy afternoon looking over the forum and the color is very annoying. Nearly need to blacken the room to help out. Lighter color would be great. Or may be I need glasses.

Hi All,
I'm in favour of a lighter coloured theme.  It is a little depressing looking at drab grey.  White them like on RSLC or SAU would be good.

At least OzLiberty has got it logo at the top.

Cheers
Darryl
