Again, for the 3,478th time, don't pull that crap here.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Dark themes make my eyes water after a few minutes. I don't really care what the new theme is, because I use the default light theme anyway. But this album cover definitely lends itself to a lighter theme.

There will definitely be thought put into whether to create a new theme, and a decision will likely be made as to whether to create and utilize such a hypothetical theme that will result in a new theme here on the forum unless the decision is made not to or no decision is actually made at all.  If there is a new them, it will likely be light, unless of course it is dark or medium.  It may or may not end up being the default, if it is even made, which it likely will be, unless it isn't.  There may be multiple themes, unless there aren't.  Hope that helps.

The ability to use the Confuse Ray is insignificant next to the power of the Force.

Exact opposite for me. As long as I can keep my current dark theme I'm happy. I'd rather not stare all day into a blue clown.

I'm with rumbo. I'm okay with a new forum default but I would hate to see the "Black Clouds and Silver Linings" theme(third one on the list of themes) go away. The yellow-on-black is much easier on my eyes than any other theme. Also I really hope that red text will show up well on the new theme(if we get a new theme) since it works much better than bolding/italicizing when you need to highlight in a quote. I know yellow is the most immediately noticeable color to the eyes but yellow text camouflages somewhat on light backgrounds and on dark backgrounds it seems to get lost amidst the white text.

Thanks for your consideration on this matter, Bosk. Also what's up with the avatar change and is it just temporary?

I personally couldn't care less what the new theme looks like, as long as it has nothing to do with Spongebob or Rebecca Black.

Dear bosk,

I suggest we forgo the idea of a ADTOE theme (who's even heard of this Dreamed Theatre anyway?) and go with a Candice Night / Blackmore's Night theme. Thanks.
