Airbusdriver Report post Posted May 22, 2012 Is it just me, or is the black on brown motif hard to read? Is there any way to change it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billrquimby Report post Posted May 22, 2012 It's not just you. To change to a simple, fast-loading look, go to the bottom of your screen and click on "change theme," then select IPB basic. It's clean, non-confusing, and very easy to read. Bill Quimby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesWhitetail Report post Posted May 22, 2012 Hmmm....not sure what you mean, the color scheme is the same as it was before, so it shouldn't be harder to read. But if you don't like the tan theme, just go select of of the others. Look for "Change Theme" in the bottom left corner and click on it. Then you can choose from Club (the tan one), Xeriteq (a new blue one which I think is really easy to read), or IPB Basic which is basically a simple blue one.

Airbusdriver Report post Posted May 22, 2012 For about three hours, it was black letters on a dark brown background. I checked in later, and it had returned to normal. Sorry for raising the red flag...must have been some rogue electrons out for a spin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SunDevil Report post Posted May 23, 2012 what setting do you need to change so that when you click on a forum topic it takes you to the last spot in that topic that you had been looking at instead of back to the beginning? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Airbusdriver Report post Posted May 23, 2012 I'm not sure, buy there used to be a little green arrow next to the topic. When holding your mouse over the arrow, it points you to the most recent post since you marked the board as read Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave_D Report post Posted May 25, 2012 what setting do you need to change so that when you click on a forum topic it takes you to the last spot in that topic that you had been looking at instead of back to the beginning? This one feature set this site apart from all of the rest. It was soo much easier to get caught up and follow threads, you just picked up right where you left off after clicking on "New Content". Now, well, it's just as frustrating as all the others. No disrespect meant to the hard-working folks that make this site one of the best out there, but a few of us (atleast) are REALLY missing that feature!

CouesWhitetail Report post Posted May 25, 2012 Yes, ElkAddict is correct. The button is in the exact same place next to each thread as it was before, it's just that now it's a dot or a small star rather than an arrow. You click on the dot just left of the thread name and it goes to first unread post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
