As part of our recent upgrade in forum software, we've installed some new themes (including a new default theme that hopefully you've noticed). Check them out in your profile category (look under profile, then summary, then modify profile, then look and layout), and have fun customizing the look of the forums!

I'm liking this theme a lot more than the previous one.

I'm working on a JackPoint theme as well. I had completed it and sent it to Jason, but (just my luck ;)) I designed it for V1 and it doesn't work for V2. As soon as I get it updated, I'll send it off to Jason and see if we can't get it running.

I am rocking DarkModern.

Absolute power is kinda neat.

The gray on gray silver modern theme makes it so that you can't see links embedded in text.

By that I mean there is no distinction between what is a link and what isn't.

We put another one up, (Jackpoint) but it's not working right. Work in Progress. Will post an update when it's behaving properly.

Links now show up in a subtle purple. Does that color work for people?

As a sidenote, if you have the Shadowrun and Decker fonts installed on your system (and allow you're browser to display the webpage's fonts), it will use those fonts for the theme.

Now, if you were truly awesome, you'd link to said fonts. So I guess you're settling for just "OK" huh? ;p

Sorry, I was assuming that all the forum members were such hard-core SR fans, that they'd already have those fonts installed. ;D

But for those of you that don't have them, here they are: SR Fonts

I feel, as my duty as a Web Designer, the need to warn users: I put the SR fonts into the theme for authenticity. They are, however, not necessarily the best fonts for a forum (or a computer monitor, as a matter of fact), so you may not want to switch over.

How irritating. I just realized those fonts can´t seem to manage the scandinavian å, ä, ö... Ah, well, I just have to write my campaign notes in English, then.
