And got this:
tek do me a favor, right click it, open in new tab/window whatever and see what happens. This has happened some of mod pages as well and this was my fix (and posted about in the mod forum)...I'm really just curious

I just clicked the link again and it looks fine now.

OK I'm NOT a fan of the posts in the thread actually being blue background...

This takes me back to when I was a nipper. 2014 or thereabouts.

I like it too.

I've come up with another design which changes the colours in a way that I think works better for a blue based theme. Pretty much all the borders / background frame and text has been changed in addition to the post background areas and widgets.

Enlarge

Note:
Intrancersonic, the site I've created has full colour as well as background image selection options one can check out if they wish.

Re: Keeping the previous look.. Neither option emulates the prior defaults. Light mode appears lighter almost entirely due to the choice of a white background outside of the forum text area. A "mixed mode", which keeps the forum text area as the present "light mode", but changes the stuff outside of that to be darker, would provide something closer to the previous defaults. Some percentage of users might find the new white background choice off-putting, whilst finding dark mode too dark..

WE FEAR CHANGE!!!!!

Why do you bother logging out? I've been a member here for 20 years and I can guarantee you I have never logged out of this site, not even once.

Try the sidebar on the right-hand side of the page. The first little icon next to "REVIEWS" will give you a list of latest posts. I didn't even realise there was another way to access them.

I like it, it's a huge improvement. Thanks to whoever did the work, nice job!

First up, as stated, it is experimental (under development) and will change. There are certainly parts of KVR (forum and the wider site) where dark mode is not yet accounted for, which could see light backgrounds and light text or dark backgrounds and dark text, etc.

I'm fixing as we go.

The main part of the recent change was updating the forum software / script to the latest version and modifying the theming to match the rest of the KVR site (which was moved to the new design quite some time ago). Dark mode has been a back-burner development for a while and it seemed logical to roll that out at the same time (to help with the "my eyes are burning" comments the new look would no doubt elicit

)

I believe there are just two sections that don't yet use the new look. KVRMarks and the Latest Posts page. They should be migrated soon.

Light mode could probably be toned down a little. I think it seems brighter because the right column is now incorporated into the main content block, with the same white background, whereas it was a separate dark backgrounded column before.

The login failure issue, the corrupt email notification issue, the attachment theming, the downloads theming, should all be fixed. The Latest Posts link should now always be in the sticky Quick Links bar at the top of every forum page along with a dedicated PM button. Log Out is in the Quick Forum Links drop down.

Has the Member List gone walkabout? I saw it somewhere about 36 hours ago, but can't find it now.

Has this been reported yet? I forgot to add an image to a post but when I went back to add it I got this. I made sure I was using edit and not quote.
