forum theme change

Post by antus »

As you probably have noticed by now, we have a new, more modern theme for the site! Big thanks to The1, Jayme, VL400, Holden202T who all helped select/create and fix content and the couple of issues we found in beta testing it.

If you prefer the old theme you can go back to it by selecting the cog icon at the top right -> board preferences -> My board stlye and change it from artodia black back to proDark.

oww my eyes.

reminds me of the ami bios color options back in the 386 days lol

really needs a white background I recon. The white on back writing strains your eyes after some tome and the smileys are all messed up.

thats m2c.

actually it would use more. I recall the LCD sutters or pixels are switched on for black, which is to block the back light.

thats true for CCFL back light, but LCD draw is tiny anyway. Now we have LED backlight, the backlight shuts down or dims on a pixel by pixel basis, and it'd also use less on old school CRT if anyone still has one of them.

but the option is there to use the old theme for those who want (details in first post of this thread).
