Chris A Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) Chad, I know that there are always many things to do on the forum, but I have one request if it isn't too difficult: adding one more screen layout theme that can be used having dark or black background with white text. I'm of course assuming that a new theme can be edited and added to the library of the present three user-selectable themes. When projecting the forum on the flat TV screen while playing foobar2000 in the background on the main setup and browsing the forum in the foreground, at night the white background on the front screen can be really overpowering and glaring for my WAF and myself. I do like the copper/bronze theme highlights with the white accents of the main Klipsch website pages, if that means anything. Thanks for your efforts on this forum: you got at least one that really appreciates the work that you do.

Shiva Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I second that. Just like on AVSforum, you can choose a dark background if so desired and I always do. It is so much easier on the eyes when viewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel's wife Posted March 22, 2016 Moderators Share Posted March 22, 2016 Pinging Chad so he will see this. A brief PM to him might be helpful also! Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted March 22, 2016 Administrators Share Posted March 22, 2016 Back when we migrated to this version of the forums, I had started a "Klipsch Dark" theme. I never got around to finishing it. We'll be (gulp) upgrading the forums to the latest version of IP.Board probably late this year, which brings about all kinds of fun changes, and I think we'll have a dark theme ready by then. I'll make it a point to have it. Thanks 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coytee Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Ok... I typically am free to admit I'm a dummy..... Looks like I'm going to admit it again! I didn't know the colors could be changed so I started looking around. I finally found what I think is being referenced here.... and if so, am intrigued. Enter a HEX value? Really??? Might you consider putting a cheat-cheat next to it so a dummy like me can know what to put in? Background Options Tile the image (good for patterns, bad for photos) Background color #Enter a hex value, e.g. ff0000 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris A Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Richard, At the bottom left of the forum window, there's a link to "Change Theme". Click that and you'll see three choices 1) IP Board, 2) IP Board Mobile, and 3) Klipsch ...none of which have a dark background.

Administrators Chad Posted March 23, 2016 Administrators Share Posted March 23, 2016 3) Klipsch Which is the default for members Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 If there is a long thread I haven't read then IP Mobile really zips along with none of the fluff. The standard theme is more interesting visually IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
