Ok, everyone has been reset to the Halloween theme.  If you want to be reset to the default let Dianna or myself know and we can set you back to the normal default.

Cool. I had forgotten about the headless horseman with the banjo. I will enjoy it while it is up.
Dear Lord, On this day, please wrap your arm around my shoulder and keep your hand over my mouth.  Amen

I have already switched mine back. The Halloween theme hurts my eyes... :giggle:

Like it, but even though I'm not big on dark themes, this one is okay.

One problem, my eye sight isn't 20/20 and have to view at 800x600, words overlap.

Would you like me to change you back to the old theme, William? :grinnnn:

My eyesight isn't 20/20 either.... :BigGrin:

Yep, this theme is not designed for 800x600.  I changed you back to the default.  You may have to clear your browser cache for the change to take effect.

It is always a shock to see something different when you are expecting something the same but I do like this theme.

We are all under the same stars, therefore we are never far apart.

Got it fixed now.  Every year it's a challenge to remember how the theme changes go.  They are kind of quirky.

Thanks Jim, default is working now.

Would be nice if theme designers would consider 800x600 in their designs, I would actually use the theme if they did.

Yep, I guess they think all of us have those young eyes.  I have a 22" monitor and have it set to 1280x768 and it looks good.  The message reply text is kind of small but once it's posted it looks good.

I like it.

Glad you like it Sheri.  We will stay with this theme till 1 Nov.

I haven't been on in a couple of days. When it first came up I thought I was at the wrong place. I love it.
This is me ->?

That's what I really like about this software.  You can install a new theme and it changes the entire look of the forum.  It doesn't change the way things work though so even though it looks different it works just the same.

Bumping this topic.  If you have issues with seeing the dark theme, I can change each person individually.  Post in this topic if you have issues or want to be changed back to the default.

I think Frankie is a Jewish fellow whose last name is Stein.

to the left of the topic areas.  like spirit lounge.  he is faded out and ghostly if there are no new posts in any of the threads but it is more like a picture of him when there are new posts.

If you aren't seeing the difference it may be that you have the brightness of your monitor turned up or the contrast down.  The picture is changed by adding a black background to the ghostly image if there are new messages and no background if there aren't.

If you click on unread posts since last visit, you get the whole mess of new posts all in one place without having to go to the board index.
