Porteus

Please vote if you prefer the new design or the old one.

I was really on the fence here... I voted that I prefer the old theme; however, that's mostly because I'm so used to it. If some tweaks could be made to the new theme, I might actually prefer it over the old one

The new theme feels a little too monochromatic and looks a little washed out on my screens, making it a little hard to read. Some of the font doesn't seem to render very well on my blackberry (which I'm trading in for a Windows 8 phone tomorrow --ugh!). Perhaps a little darker on some of the text and some more contrast between the foreground and background. Is this plausible? What do others think?

Thanks for putting this together!

I thought my system was wrong, I needs a little darker background

I do like the new theme, but agree a little more contrast would look even better.

A little change does not hurt anybody. However, where is the item menu to view my posts?

prefer the old theme as this one is barely readable for me.

i like it. matches the website style better. the old one looked kind of dated.
I can read it well, but a little darker background for those who can not would not hurt.
is it possible to have a option for switching to a darker theme?

After some research into it I see that the current style doesn't conform to the WCAG20 color contrast standards.

The lighter blue (#1E8FC7) text on blue/gray background (#ECECEC) does not have enough contrast. I don't think it would cause epileptic seizures and difficulty passing urine, but I agree we should at least meet the standard. I still think this style rocks though. Hamza can you please switch back to original template? Sorry.

I take full responsibility for requesting the change, but blame any difficulty passing urine on NA (Hamza)

My opinion is that the forum theme should match the main website, porteus.org. Maybe the most appropriate theme is "Black" from artodia.com
