The amount of requests I had for a light theme were extremely high. I am going to try and eventually offer a dark version of this as an option, but that is ways out for now.

I agree, great job h2s. I find this format much easier on the eyes.

Damn I loved that it was dark! Shows how different people's vision is haha

There are a few guys who want a darker theme, so it is in the pipeline. I know, for instance, that Eden said his eyesight wasn't the best and the dark was actually highly of benefit to him, so I don't want that project to fall to the side.

Yeah, I don't even care that much but I mostly look at swole when I wake up and when I go to bed (weird) and the dark is awesome. Also it looked more badass

Looks good...it is really bright now so it will take a bit to adjust. I did not mind the dark screen. My only question is what did you do with that picture of me you had on the landing page??

:p

Haha, someone of good influence to me suggested the disclaimer and to make it very blatant in nature. For now that is the new splash.

Ack! I had to remove it because i hated the placement and I completely forgot to get it back in there. I have been working on this for some time. THanks for bringing it up, will be back by the weekend.

might just be my browser, but does anyone else have both vertical and horizontal scroll bars in every post, every post doesn't fit within the viewing box and I have to scroll left/right to read it

Guys I had trouble with the search bar, but it will be back shortly.

I will look into the shoutbox, but my fear is that it will distract from forum activity.

As for the logging out make sure you click remember me and have cookies enabled.

As for the scrolling, what OS and browser? I haven't seen this in my testing?

weird, even my post which is surely not too large for the box, comes with both direction scroll bars

Thanks, I will try and look into this. I will have to put the same version on my windows machine and see if I can duplicate it.

Which version of windows are you on?

it was probably 7. Went XP > 7 > 8.

All I need to know though, as I just wanted to make sure it wasn't 8.

Just a quick question, am I crazy or did the search function disappear?

It did, I had an issue moving it from where the template wanted it, it should be back shortly.

I can also use everyone's help with some quick testing. I added a join message for guests to encourage more sign ups. Can you sign out and see how arnold appears to you on your screen and let me know if you have any issues?

bottom right of screen, about 3/4 of him in the picture, looks ok to me

Ok cool, thats how it should look. This was something Burly and I had discussed adding a while ago. Should not appear to members, only guests to encourage them to participate.

Yea down in the bottom right corner...made me log in ASAP!
:cool:

Is it normal to only be able to log in from the main page? Meaning if I jump into a thread not signed in, I have to back up to the main page to log in once I realize I'm not on already.

Really? That is odd, I just signed in from this page (I was signed out for testing). You don't have a sign in and register button up top? What about if you click reply?

The dark background was a little easier on the eyes on PC but this is great for mobile devices, much better. Just my two cents!

Yeah forum looks great, and if the majority is guest traffic then the Arnold thing makes sense. like I said, WAAAAY better than limiting page views (although if it continues to go that way I wouldn't blame you if you implemented something like that).

overall, how did the newst BBing forum become the best? it's because everyone here is fucking awesome, that's why

Not sure this came up earlier but any chance of a live chat ?

h2s

I would prefer a shoutbox over the live chat. It works similarly but the chat becomes part of the page.
