It's such a mess from my old template to the new it would be either to start from scratch.

So for now you'll see the VB default. YUCK!

I absolutely love the black theme, I honestly feel like it separates BCM from other forums I frequent, who obviously haven't upgraded their layout in years, they all look the same in some way, but BCM is surely unique.

I think white text with black background is much easier to read.

I liked the look of the old forum, but this is easier to read. You wanna see something really old and out of date, see Spot Light Hobbies forum.

I didn't mine the black to much but it did block the default black text in the go advance icons . I just memorized what was where. Now I don't have to .

Can you set a light skin and a dark skin? I hate how it looks now, also miss the black.

yeah weren't you able to pick themes before? Black wasn't the only option prior to this

Yes and I am working on that.

It's an option for admin's I can force a template or give you the choice. It can be a lot of work to maintain multiple templates if there's customization.

I like the blackstealth theme alot better as well. It was hard to adjust to the all black screen but it did look cool & different.

The lighter back ground is really straining to me. Way too bright.

Lighter reads a lot easier.

I'll tell you all right now I cant stand the bright so more effort is going to be on a darker skin.

For those that do not know how to switch their template view, it's at the bottom of ever page. There's a drop down menu on the left hand side.

OK, for those that like brighter backgrounds... What do you think of "FunkyFresh"?

I dont skimp on monitors. I'm wondering if some of you might have a monitor/LCD with poor brightness/contrast.

Ahhhhhhh! Back to black.

hard to interpret what you mean... "Ahh" as in a sigh of relief? or AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH not black again....

You do have a choice.

Don't know where else to post but is there any reason my avatar got shrunk to nothing after the update?

Funkyfresh is awesome. Much easier to read than an all black screen. How many magazines are printed with 100% reverse type? :rolf

Making adjustments to Blackstealth right now to fix some color issues. (dark on dark text)

Still trying to figure out where the smiley list disappeared too.

Some avatars don't show on the black. I liked the black, but now I switched over to funky fresh. The old black was good but the new black is weird. Can't even see the type when i log in the little box. Light grey box with slightly darker letters. Hard to tell if letters are even there. When i said "Aahhhhhh" before, that was a good thing, but the newer black seems a bit different now.

I'm still working on taking elements from the old dark theme and putting them in "Blackstealth".
please let me know everything you find that needs a tweak. Every element has its own CSS value and the hardest part if finding where to change it. Changing it the proper way means upgrades shouldn't break it.
