site theme choices?

Post by NomadJago »

I am new here, great site. I have been on sites like this before and even create a couple like this, and there is sometimes the option for the member to choose from a few styles or themes for the site interface. Currently I see a white/blue/blue-gray; maybe there could be a couple of other theme choices? Just a thought.

If you know a theme you'd like to see just drop me a note and I'll see if I can install it!

I think the Pro Ubuntu Lucid theme looks so nice.

I have a suggestion:

this theme has many color variants

I'd like to add that if the chosen theme could include a "dark" variant that'd be perfect, of course I use whatever dark mode the used browser natively include but it still give havoc results on some very intricated [: quotes of quotes...of :](ad lib) :D

Added. You can enable it via UCP (User Control Panel) > Board preferences > Edit global settings > My board style

I am enjoying a lot the flat_style theme, very readable, doesn't tire my eyes. However there is one bug: it doesn't properly display the board hierarchy on the top bar! Do you know what can cause this?

(The screenshot is from this very post I am writing right now)
