Haha, this looks exactly like another board that I administrate at. So is it still going to have this layout (but with more "Siren Board"-esque customization), or is it going to look exactly like the old board? I do like this layout because I'm used to it, but I'm fine with the older style too.

We should have options. Matt is working on the old theme to implement back on the board.

So while there is still a lot of work to be done on the theme, I have flipped everyone to Aluminoid (You can change if you want). Any feedback?

There wouldn't happen to be a way to make the theme be device specific? I like the old theme on a desktop or tablet, but it doesn't work out as well on mobile browsers as well. You'd have to zoom and what not, where as it seems the new one is easier to deal with on a phone.

Just implement the old buttons and it will look fine.
Oh wow just realized that stylebot was running and it looked like you perfected all the colors but no I was wrong.

Yes you can but that takes a lot of work to make it function properly.



Ok now here is a huge photo with the colors for the theme (separators are white):

I've noticed it loads a lot faster now as well!
It's also easier to tell when you've read a post or not as well now.

I love how there isn't that "Your post was made successfully" screen; it gets right to the post!
