I panicked severely for a moment, but Bob pointed out to me that you can revert to the old themes and my heart attack ended.

I notice that the buttons don't work for the Gametoast theme at least.

Since this theme is gray, I'll keep it. I kind of like it more than the old gray one, actually.

Just have to look around where the buttons/link on the new style are, but looks good so far. You may want to remove the phpBB

Yeah, or make a more prominent Gametoast logo centered in the page header.

I like the new style. And the smiles/ buttons work now. I'd say this is the best site I ever have seen.

I like the old one a bit more, probably just for nostalgic purposes. But this new theme is pretty cool 8)

I kinda like this new theme, but clicking reply should take you straight to the full editor in my opinion. I also like the old theme better cause it's what I'm used to. :cpu:
On another note, I hope GT doesn't go down again, it always feels like it's gonna never go back up.

I like the quick replay function :D

Maybe you can move the page numbers short links to the left side, as it was at the old theme. On my Full HD Monitor it's a half an kilometer to move the mouse from the left side (where you klick on the thread name for the first page) to the right side (where the page links are to jump to the last page directly)

I agree, I think the buttons, etc. could use some organization/alignment. Right now, it feels like everything just got shoved to the sides of the page. Header/title bars could also be made more distinct.

Also the code bbcode is a bit buggy.

Code: Select all

I can't use [b]bold[/b] or [u]underline[/u] or anything else in here. Also, the font for code should always be Courier New :P

It would be awesome, if we could upload our images directly to GT If your server is big enought.


==EDIT==

I liked the old Headerimage more than this new one. I tryed me in doing a new one. You may want to give it a try. I'm not sure if the white color fit to the dark theme

The code tags have always been like that. Their purpose is to preserve the original structure and input of the text between them.

Is it possible to remove the little information thing (I forget what they're called, those little yellow or white things that pop up when you hover over a link) from showing up on the home page when you're not over a link? They show up pretty much wherever I put my mouse and it's getting pretty annoying. :x
