Not sure. I use both with no issues. A lot of times the answer to these types of questions seems to be to clear cache and clear cookies.

I don't know how to do that myself, and i recognize it's far down, if not completely off the bottom of any admin to do list.
But it would still be nice. : )
Yeah, I think I threw out the idea of changing the theme/skin/whatever PHPBB calls it before, but people were happy with the default colors.

A change in theme colors would be nice. For gods sake don’t go straight black and white like Animal Pak does. Within 5 minutes of reading anything you’re blind.

My favorite skins are dark grey with a slightly less dark grey for where text goes.
Closer contrast, and overall low albedo.

It's a bit of a long shot, but is there a way to make the "board index" tab read "bored index" when you are in a certain subforum?

Write on your screen with a marker.

---
We're looking at different styles, by the way. They can be chosen by each user rather than everyone seeing the same thing.

Whole bunch of options here: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styles-2 ...if you have a request we can add it. Must be compatible with 3.2.1.

Or, even better, once all forums are marked as "read." Because, when you have nothing left to read... get it?

What if the Board Index bar always looks abbreviated, like this to me:

Is this just because I'm dumb at computers?

I vote the turtles theme, and make it mandatory for all users

I might be wrong here, but I think you got the wrong end of the stick:

This IS in the shitposting (sub)forum, and our magnetic overlol'd was complimenting it.

I think.

Heh. I got a chuckle out of it. It so intentionally obvious as to be amusing.

I give it three points.

I'm going to unsticky this thread. Seems like the board functions fine overall. I'll update my running list of projects this weekend.

If you guys have other suggestions you can send a PM to me or any other admins.

I'm not sure why the time zone is off on the board.
