Old Blue Forum Skin Not Longer Available

[george]

Due to forum software upgrades, we are not longer able to support and serve the old blue forum skin. All members will now have the new Invision Pro skin as default.

I can't stand this gray/black theme, are there not any other lighter/brighter options available?

Agreed. Would like the old blue version back ideally, but at least an alternative to this drab grey one would be good...

[ovenman]

Another vote for some other option. The Invision Pro default skin is horrible.

[bkkmick]

I agree too. This dark theme is too gloomy.

[pete_r]

Here is my vote for a brighter option too.

For me it's horrible due to my colour blindness; I beg you to reconsider and re-install the OLD BLUE FORUM SKIN.

This morning I thought there was something wrong until I went to forum support....

The 'New Invision Pro Skin' is HARD TO READ for me and I suppose I'm not the only one.

Unfortunately the blue skin is not compatible with the version of forum software we migrated to yesterday. We are looking for an alternative skin for those who doesn't like the Pro skin..

[Patsycat]

I actually quite like it!! Was a bit of a shock to the eyes at first but seems more soothing somehow..

[Maestro]

I can't stand this gray/black theme...

I don’t like it, either. It’s not even grey/black; it is grey/grey. Dark grey text on a lighter grey background.

Thank you so much; I hope you can solve the problem soon.

For people who do not have a certain disability it's always difficult to understand, whether colour blindness or otherwise.

Dyslexia is another problem many people suffer from/with..... people who can read and write normal, often do not understand or have compassion...

As I said, unfortunately the blue skin is not compatible with the version of forum software we migrated to recently. We understand the issues, and we are looking for (an) alternative skin(s) for those who doesn't like the Pro skin.

I will have something nice for you guys next week!

Cheers and sorry for the inconvenience.

funny, i cant even remember what it looked like before...so i cant really say if this one is better or not.... LOL...

[pumpuiman]

I find that now there are banner ads blocking some writing/clickable areas at the top of the page.

[pumpuiman]

Search function is blocked by banner ad.....will this continue? or are you working on this problem...(or am I the only sufferer?)

Pumpuiman

I have the exact same problem with the banner ads blocking out some of the functions. However, I find that if I close my Favourites Explorer Bar, so I get a full-width screen, the problem goes away. The bar can be re-instated from the View menu. I'm using IE7 by the way.

This business with the banner ads is a small inconvenience - don't know if it can be fixed easily or not. Up2George I guess.

Yes please give another option as soon as you can. I really hate the Pro Skin as well. Thanks.

Thought I would bump this back up to the top.

It would be great for an alternative skin on both Thai Visa and...

It's very hard for people who are NOT colour blind to understand and see the problems for those who are, like myself.

Colour blindness is not something you ask for when you're born; it's a pain in the @ss for the rest of your life !

OK, let me try to tell how difficult it is:

Because it was told here* and I 'focus' my eyes (almost close them) I was able to learn that it said '37' but normally I would NOT be able to see what number it is

I'm NOT able to see the number (44 or 49)

I'm NOT able to see the number (56)
