Heh. There is another theme if you are referring to the brightness. But yea, there is a whole new slew of options. Trust me, once you get used to it, it whips ass all over phpbb.

Looks great, Ron! My personal favorite feature: Go into Profile and Look and Layout Preferences and turn on Quick Reply by Default.
I have to say, though, I just went ahead a did a Mark All Messages Read so that I can get a fresh start. I couldn't remember what I had and hadn't read! Duh.

I like the bigger fonts and reply area and such. Makes it easier on my tired old eyes.

Big change! I just started trying the new IE 7 beta and thought it caused the different forum look! Looks pretty nice so far.

Looking slick. Took me three full seconds to find 'reply' though (why am I admitting this)...

Once you get used to it, this forum software is worlds better than what we had. I had a hard time coming back to the old boards while beta testing these new boards.

Where is the "Mark All Messages Read" button? At the main forum menu, down in the bottom right is a mark all read button. This marks all messages in every sub forum read.

Yea, I think the guys who are building SMF themes currently are color blind.

Um, how do I apply a theme to the forum? Are there any currently?
I was using the old gamingtrend white text on black scheme to make this easier on my eyes.

There is currently a darker theme if you click on Profile -> Look and Layout -> click on "Change" under Current Theme. Keep in mind that we are rebuilding BOTH THEMES to work with our upcoming redesign. I appreciate your patience all...it'll come together. We can rebuild it - we have the technology.
