I checked all in my Used CP and looked through it to see if there was a theme changer. I didn't see one in there, so it might be a good idea to add an area so people can change their theme for this forum. If anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about, let me explain. The theme is what lets you change the backround and colors and everything on the forum. Having this option is a nice addon to any forum. :hihi:

This was originally planned, so everyone can chose a look they like best. The main issue with that is if the themes vary a lot, writing guides or using vB code to make a post look good might make it look like CRAP in another theme. It also makes unifying everything THAT much harder. However, if we don't very them a lot, people will complain about the lack of selection.

I like the uniformity of it all. I don't like giving the users a chance to change the forum skin. I think it should be the site's choice.

Adding more themes for the users to choose from might increase the workload of the admins who have to create new buttons and make sure bugs like dialog boxes going out of line does not occur. We should stick at one recognisable theme so that everyone will recognise this site as what it is. It may also create problems when upgrades to forum source codes come along or something to that effect.
