Please answer this poll. I am looking to delete one or two themes from the board, and I would like to know which ones you would like to keep =) If you're unsure of what I'm talking about; scroll to the bottom of the page. On the left side you have a "Choose a theme:" option. The default is Tea Garden.

Right now REfresh and Wild Heart are on the chopping block. The latter requires updating, which I hardly ever remember to do.

You may choose up to two themes. I will leave this up for about a week, so don't forget!

PS: I'm adding two new ones this week, and turning the Christmas Eve theme on =)

It's that time of year again, and I'm so excited!!!!

I use Tea Garden but like Volumes of Summer, too. The ones you say are on the chopping block are also my least favorite.

I have also noticed an issue, which puts yet another on the chopping block. I'm not sure if anyone else has caught this, but it's bugging me.

With any theme, apparently, when the Breeding and Showing board, as well as All About The Buns, is selected it defaults to the Rainbow Bunny theme. I have no idea why it's doing this. I think it's an issue with out host. I went to their official board, and it's doing the same thing.

This was the boards first theme, and one a lot of people don't like. There a huge possibility that it wont be available. Let me know if you like Rainbow Bunny, or if this issue doesn't bother you. Chances are most of you didn't even know there was a problem. I certainly didn't until I went to install a specific theme.

I always used Tea Garden as it is the default theme, but now switched to Winter Theme, which I voted for, along with Volumes of Summer.

Can't wait to see the Christmas Eve theme. Will definitely switch to that as it's my Heart Bunny, Neville's birthday (will be 2 years old, how time flies) and my Stepfather's birthday. Miss him dearly.

I enabled the two themes. They only gave me minor problems. Mojito, and Holiday Cheer are up for the first time, and Christmas Eve is back =)

The first two will both go away when spring rolls around, and Christmas Eve will be disabled around New Years. Or, if you guys like Mojito, I can leave it up. It doesn't effect the board, I just don't like having options that no one uses. Plus Wild Heart is so needy.

Also, Rainbow Bunny is on the chopping block. I'm mad at it. It'll probably become a seasonal theme.

One of these days I'll get off my lazy butt and make my own. It'll never be as nice as the ones we have now, but it would be ours =)

Would love to see what you make as the true RA theme.

Enjoyed the new additional themes.

Something I've noticed. Once I log out, it defaults back to the "Tea Garden" theme, but when I log back in the theme I chose appears. This should happen?

hey, do you have an option of changing the default?
I never even give a thought to changing themes (more a content person) - but it would be cool if the default 'changed itself' with the seasons.

It would be nice to have a real RA theme. Gotta say, though... I do like the current ones and it's neat that we're able to change them to meet our tastes.

Having fun with the different changes, but have found that the best reading of the forum is with a light background with dark letters. So much easier on the ole eyes. So after playing with the themes, I've found Winter Theme the easiest on my eyes. Reading a forum, (as Neubunny stated - content) is basically the top priority here as well. Like a decorative theme, but if it is hard to read, it's just become decorative.

Love the different ones. Think Christmas Eve is just so festive, but that dark background with light letters really hurts my eyes. Holiday Theme is nice as well, but it's only seasonal and will be gone by New Years.

I tried out all the themes when I joined and chose to stick with Tea Garden. Winter Theme would be an alternative for me if it wasn't for the title bar which takes up way too much vertical space for my liking. I discount a lot of the other themes because they wrap text slightly earlier than Tea Garden so that in topic lists, if the last poster has a longer name (sidd-says-gimme for example), then on my usual display (10in tablet) the topic summary line takes up three lines rather than the normal two. Not the worst thing in the world but display preferences are often about tiny differences like this.

I also choose to hide avatars and signatures (under Preferences->Board Settings) to free up more screen space for content.

Yes, that's supposed to happen. Since it's not logged into your account, and it doesn't know what you prefer, it defaults back to Tea Garden.



Neubunny: I can change the default. I wouldn't mind switching it for the seasons, but I would have to be really careful about which one I choose. Sometimes the default is what turns people off. (there was a discussion on FB once, and some people said that they wouldn't join because they didn't like the default theme, which was Rainbow Bunny at the time). It would have to be between the two winter ones, I think Christmas Eve is too much, unfortunately. I'm leaning more towards the Winter Theme one, does anyone disagree? I think it's simple, and easy on the eyes, so it should deter too many people away. (Even though it technically isn't winter yet).

I can keep the themes up longer, if you want. Winter Theme has been up since last year because a few people requested it. It doesn't hurt anything, it's just pointless to have options that no one ever uses. It kind of just clutters everything, you know?

twr: While I was browsing the theme section on the Zathyus board (the board for our host, Zetaboards), I saw something about mobile themes. If you want, I can look for a super simple one, as well as look more into the mobile themes (I have no idea how they work, so it would take some time).

You know what? Here: http://if.invisionfree.com/forum/1000728/
That's where all the themes that I use are from. It's their official board. If a couple of you see one that you like I can do a poll, and install the one with the most votes. It on'y takes about an hour to install, as long as I don't run into any issues. You should be able to hover your mouse over the thread, and get a preview of the theme. There are also several subforums in that link I sent you, so there's a lot to sift through. Don't be afraid to suggest anything.

PS. I want the theme that the board uses. Unfortunately I'll probably have to wait until Fall is over before they post it, if they do at all (usually they do, though).

Wow, lots of different themes.


Innovation

These looked interesting.

Still sifting through. Looking for themes that do not turn people away. Will take the content of this forum seriously.
