Title: Thumbs up on the forum design update
Post by: pastywhitegurl on July 17, 2022, 09:44:52 PM
Nice update. The whole page looks cleaner, and its nice to have a larger font size in the topics.

I find quite the opposite pages a washed out colour and lacking contrast

I tend to agree with you, Mike.  Unfortunately, our options are limited and the free themes I've found are actually rather ugly.

Hi, Mike.  I did find a dark mode theme that has had good reviews.  I'll provide the information to the other Admins to see what they think.  Note, however, that if it is agreed to install it, SpyDie is very busy so it may be a while before it can be done.

Also I have this on the menu above the reply area:

Due to the software update, I believe previous notifications settings were lost.  Merely click on your name at the top of the forum and select "Notifications".  From there you can set your preferences.

As to what you're seeing above the reply area, it is the limited emoji's included with the SMF update. With Windows 10 and Windows 11, it is easy to add an emoji to a post with the shortcut.  Just press the Windows key and the period button.

I re-set the Notifications in my Profile. Thank you.

As to the emojis, perhaps they shouldn't be there if they are shown like that. It's not nice to see those "broken" images of them. Of course, I don't know if there is a way to remove them.

Although not ideal, there is now a dark mode theme!  See the instructions at https://www.landzdown.com/index.php?topic=59331.msg206420#msg206420 to use the theme.
