Dannyalcatraz Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 …do the new forum themes “Bravo 6” and “Dynamic” look pretty much the same? Quote Sturgeon's 2nd Law, a.k.a.

Larryz Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Thanks for the info...Kuru and Danny. I can't stand the gray and black with white lettering. Didn't know how to change it, then found "Theme" at the bottom of the pages. Clicked on it and chose Default. Got thing back to normal!👍 Quote Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyalcatraz Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 I took screenshots of both…and they’re almost indistinguishable, with Bravo narrowly edging out Dynamic for legibility.

OK, screenshots suck. Try this, online, live and in person, switch from Bravo to Dynamic and look at your tagline "Sturgeon's 2nd Law... It's barely legible in Dynamic and easily read in Bravo. I'm using a 2014 MacBook Pro plugged into a Dell monitor I got for $30 at Goodwill, a 24". Not high end stuff by any means and that's what I see. Dynamic is darker and has less contrast, with small text and my poor eyesight it's not pretty a bit. I could survive Bravo but I'm glad I don't have to!

Dannyalcatraz Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 I did do that. That’s how & why I took the screenshots. Though I could tell the difference, they were so similar as to make no difference to me (on my Apple portable devices). So even though I generally prefer dark themes for viewing forums, the two offered here and now are not for me. Quote Sturgeon's 2nd Law, a.k.a.

I don't have any Apple portable devices so we probably aren't seeing the same exact thing. We do agree that these dark themes are not what we like!!!

Scroll ALL the way to the bottom of the thread page, it's down there, next to "Contact Us". Not particularly impressed with any of them, but the "Default" was just too much glaring white space on my Mac. 1 Quote "Monsters are real, and Ghosts are real too.

BiC Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I like the dark theme.

Dannyalcatraz Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 It may just be my imagination, but it looks like there’s still some fiddling going on. Quote Sturgeon's 2nd Law, a.k.a.

Dave Bryce Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 8 hours ago, Dannyalcatraz said: It may just be my imagination, but it looks like there’s still some fiddling going on. Not with the themes. If you use Chrome as your browser, it’s got a Night Mode that I quite like. I use that on my iPad. The deal with the other themes we have now is that those were the free ones that were offered. There are bunches of other ones, but they all cost $ - bigger payment up front, then smaller ongoing charges. I’m not adverse to buying a better one, but I wanna take time looking at them. I do admit a bit wary because it seems likely that whichever one I pick will not be everyone’s first choice. Luckily, the other options will always be there… dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertbluesman Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I use Firefox as my browser, everything is stable and working well here. It is far quicker to load and more stable than the last iteration of the forum. 1 Quote dbm If it sounds good, it is good !! http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=143231&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannyalcatraz Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 Safari user here. I agree that the site seems more stable. I haven’t been involuntarily logged out since the switchover, so that’s a plus in my book! 3 Quote Sturgeon's 2nd Law, a.k.a.
