The home page is still the same for me. Don't see any changes...

For the confused: Hover your mouse over 'profile.'  In that menu, click 'account settings.'  In there, near the top, you'll see 'Profile Info' and 'Modify Profile'.  Hover over 'Modify' and in that drop down menu, click 'Look and Layout.'  The first option on that page will be "Current theme: Dramatic Turnings (change)"  Click change.  Voila.

And you did take it easy on the brightness of the blue, I really appreciate that  :tup

Where is the option to change the theme? I know, I'm stupid..

https://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?action=profile;area=theme;u=5150

First option on that page

Well, I'm even dumber. I still don't see the option...

Yeah I still don't see it

It's not something that can actually be gotten to by link, so duncan ended up accidentally linking his profile when he tried.

I posted instructions right before your last post.  :)

Also, yeah, it's been said, but great job XJDenton.

WOW Bosky!  You've turned back too the Light Side!!!!!   


Looks awesome!  :hat

Beneath the Surface theme is awesome. Great stuff.

Might take a while to get used to everything, though.

Waiting to see future updates!!  :hefdaddy :hefdaddy

Oh, okay.  Sorry for jumping to conclusions then.  At any rate, between the two of us, everyone should be able to find it.  :)

Isn't it though?  :)

one thing -- if you're taking criticism or not -- I think the username/usertitle text is a tad too large. Kinda feels like I'm looking on my phone :P

XianL

oooo, the dark blue theme's pretty cool

Jaffa

Just a question about the new set-up, specifically on the BTS theme.  I've got my account set to let me know whenever I get a message.  I'm just wondering where the alert will actually be on this theme, because I don't see anything where it used to be on the BC&SL dark theme.

EDIT: Nevermind.  Someone just messaged me and made things abundantly clear.  Thanks, Bacong.

Progmetty

The upper banner used to be clickable and took you to the main forums select screen. Just like clicking "DreamTheaterForums.org Dream Theater Fan Site". It's no biggie but I thought you'd like to know about any little changes we notice.

Fantastic job Bosky and to everyone else that was involved. I'm currently using the Beneath the Surface theme

I agree with this.

Also, more nitpicking but I'm not a fan of the anti-aliasing on the gender icons and the member rank images, it only works on the default theme and it stands out on the darker themes, such as BTS and BC.

The only thing I have trouble with is the fact that the thread titles and authors don't have enough contrast. It makes the thread lists look cluttered, and it's really difficult to read for a specific thread at a simple glance.

XJDenton

I'm aware of this. I am going through all the images to make them blend in better, but it might take a little bit of time.

I personally think you've earned the right to sit around and pat yourself on the back for a while before working out the kinks.  There may be little things here and there I don't love, but it looks great overall.

DarkLord_Lalinc

The Beneath the Surface theme for me. thx.

Tumdace

I have to say, I really love the design, but I prefer a "darker" design because when I am chilling, listening to some DT, the dark helps me settle into the mood for some great listening (I know.. it sounds weird).

I applaud the design though, it really is great, but I think I'll be sticking with the old design.

Fuzzboy

I miss being able to hover over a thread title and see the first few words of the post. That and when unread thread titles are in bold font. Beneath the surface look is nice though. Makes for a nice change without causing blindness.

Take a look at the dark themes we have.  Those might suit you better.

Cool, I can see quotes on Mobile now. Before everything was blended together. Got confusing sometimes. AND I CAN EDIT IN MOBILE TOO! SWEET!

bosk1

I think one of the overall advantages to SMF 2.0 is that it is designed to be more compatible with mobile usages, so I'm glad to hear that it is working better for you.

Thanks for everything Mr. Bosk.
