Not sure what old theme, but what ever was in place 2 days ago.

There were three different themes. One was a light theme named Snow White Pearl, and two dark themes named Deep Chroma Blue and Panthera Metal. Which do you think you were using?

 

[JSolo]

The one I was using had a red (or some form of red) banner at the top. Now its blue.

An associate of mine had made the previous themes what they were - and he's not doing that sort of thing anymore. If there's something specific that you'd like changed, let me know and I'll see what I can do or have done.

Mine got switched to "night mode" with a dark (black?) background. I don't remember how mine was before exactly, but pretty sure it was a light background. It's all good. I'm not picky.

Yeah, I miss the country flags too. Knowing the poster's locale quite often helps to set proper context.

Accessing the website from Australia, it does certainly load fasteron first and subsequent hits.

How about just adding the old theme as an available option, then folks can choose - new light theme or light theme.

Country Flags will be back. That's still a supported functionality but the new version isn't ready yet. The old version is not compatible with the latest version of the forum software. But it'll be back... Look further down in my reply to see how to get back to a light screen.

Thank you for letting me know. Each upgrade is designed to improve on the previous version.

Look toward the bottom left of your screen. You'll see the icon below. Click that icon. You can switch to a light screen, a dark screen, or use whatever your operating system is set to (system) if it has the option to be in light mode or dark mode.

the theme I had used a black banner at the top and bottom and light colored background on the messages, I think it must have been the snow white because the new light and dark themes don't match. if it's easy to do, cool, if not, no big deal. performance does seem better.

Seems to be loading faster for me in South Australia.

I wondered what was going on nearly every post yesterday had please support the forum by turning of your adblocker in it somewhere?

It seems to have a nice blue hue. Either that or I should take off my rose coloured glasses

I reckon when you get electricity over there it should load even faster...

Found this on archive.org; this is the color scheme i'm referring to. Was easier to read.

If I could figure out how to make the change myself I'd create a new style with those colors. But the back-end is complex in this area. I will do what I can to bring back those colors - as time allows me to learn how to do it. Right now, I don't have that time.

@JSolo I may have spoken too soon. Check out the "Alternative" style/theme and let me know if it's looking better...

 

[JSolo]

Yes, much better. But now the folks that like the dark theme will be upset .

Does the software not allow you to configure multiple color schemes by way of different css files?

Cool. The dark theme is still there.

^^I see, for my options it only shows default and alternative. Thought it was that way for others too.
