Please post here if you miss something or if you have any suggestions.

I've got one. Different template. This one is a bit too "white". Makes it hard to distinguish between different posts. But YAY AVATARS

 

[Adbear]

I have to agree, the white is painful

 

[SamuriHL]

Yea, I didn't realize there wasn't a theme selection. I have to agree.

 

[Tom]

better now?

 

[Ch3vr0n]

Text under Avatar's is more readable y, but still too white. Esp if you start looking at sig's. Needs more color, and if possible at all a slight color change between different replies. Like with the old one

Hi
I find it better.
Think you could darken a tad more, maybe.

The current white scheme is very painful.

Otherwise the new look is nice, even though all my bookmarks for the forums are now digital dust.

Hi
In the titles (Home - Forum - Members).
Both Home & Forum perform the same function.
Can I suggest that Home takes user to http://www.slysoft.com

Hm? All old urls should be redirected. What link doesn't work?

The current white scheme is very painful.

For testing, I copied the Default Style to "Dark Style" and changed the back ground color to a greenish.
You can select "Dark Style" in https://forum.slysoft.com/account/preferences

We can use this Dark Style to adjust the colors, just tell me what you want me to change

 

[Ch3vr0n]

That should be pretty obvious "Dark Style" is the winner.

Couple Tweaks:

- i'd change from it is the color of (visited) url's to something more clear distinguishable from bg.
- Another tweak would be a more clear "report post" button, can't find the "quote" button (but looks to be replaced by the "reply" on a post

I already updated the bookmarks I had with current ones that work.

Am example of a old URL that doesn't work with this current forum:

https://forum.slysoft.com/forumdisplay.php?f=17

This current greenish style works for me just fine.

 

[Adbear]

Still finding it too bright. I tend to work on a laptop and in low light even the 'dark' style is very glaring

 

[RedFox 1]

I agree Adbear, I can chat with Tom about that.

 

[Ch3vr0n]

Perhaps but it's definitely a lot better than full white before.

What does DARK STYLE do in the preference?

Way to much white as other already mentioned

EDIT - I'm not familiar with Xenforo but a quick Google search Xenforo+Styles shows A LOT of options...
https://forum.slysoft.com/threads/new-forum-software-xenforo.67097/
So please guys add more styles for us to chose from (and a DARKER one would be really nice)https://forum.slysoft.com/threads/new-forum-software-xenforo.67097/
