The “skin” of the board, the theme, is often only partially or entirely incompatible with a small range of forum software versions. After a few years, maybe, it’s time to upgrade.

Xee contacted the theme’s creator and procured a version compatible with the latest forum software. He then had to manually edit the colors element by element to match the old board and to appease my persnickety-ness. Needless to say, he did a bang up job. As always!

Well the CSS and HTML things you did made it easy on the eye.

Well done, lads!

Looks great Mods. Thanks for all of the hard work. It's nice to have a little refresh.

Marshall Plan: That's Jennifer Connelley, and she also roller blades:

Nice! She did look like Jennifer Connelley.

Apparently that movie is called Career Opportunities.

If it has Jennifer Connelley riding a horse in a suggestive manner and roller blading then how bad can it be?

It's pretty bad, honestly.

But, Jennifer Connelly.

I noticed that when I request the website to “remember me” on the login page, it actually fucking remembers me!

So that’s beneath the hood stuff. Nice.

Your forum is lively, intelligent, and reasonably civilized, and this fresh new look makes it more interesting and exciting for the days ahead. Many thanks to you guys. :wheelchair:
There is a GM named Poles
Who has a clear set of goals
He’s rebuilt his team
So Bears’ fans can dream
Of winning some more Super Bowls

I love the dark look. But I accidentally hit that button at the top of the screen and turned it white. Hated that, and I had trouble figuring out what I did. Spent a half hour trying to turn it back when I lucked across the button. I'm just dumb I guess.

That light bulb icon at the top of the screen is where you want to go to toggle the look.

Glad the default is the dark screen. Didn't know we had an option until I read this and I'm with Yogi, I'm not a fan of the white screen.
