I'm really pleased I took a screenshot of this, otherwise you guys would have been doubting my sanity.

I arrived here today to find a delicious new theme in place. Looked like a combination of IPBoard colours and Piriform.

It looked really good, and the white didn't seem to be as bright.

What struck me as odd was that no one had opened a thread about it.

To cut a long story short, I could barely move from one section to another, so I logged out and changed Opera for Firefox to see if it was an Opera issue.

Came back to find the old eye watering colours back in place. Damn!! What a huge disappointment.
:(

Didn't catch it, but I use a custom theme for the forums, so it would've overridden anything default on the board.

Too bad it isn't so, from the screenshot it did look good.

That skin is quite appealing to the eye. I would change to that in an instant if it was still up.

Something must have temporarily blocked the Piriform skin although the same something made it just about impossible to move from one section to another.

It really looked good all the same, and I can't see why we couldn't have an option like that but it always falls on deaf ears sadly.

This forum is acting weird at the moment; I left the Lounge area and it's as if it automatically logged me out, had to log back in. :huh:

Probably a branding thing. Too bad we can't at least have the option for different colors, I've been to a forum before that had ten different themes to choose from.
