As some have obviously noticed, the default theme has been changed. There is also a new theme, LGU_Dark, that is already very usable... if you like a dark theme. Comments welcome.

In the near future, we may limit the number of themes.

Thanks guys.

Okay, so far I like the dark theme *at least* as much as the other new one.  Everything is more visible than the old default, but with a taste of that darker look.  Could the part at the top with Luigi have the same brighter background it had before, or does stuff overlap so it would cause issues with text visibility?

I think I know what you mean, but not sure which theme you're talking about.

Thank e2. And yeah, it is a nice touch! This feature will expand to current default - LGU_Experimental theme, shortly.

Well, doesn't that pretty much nail down which theme?  We only have two, no?   Undecided

Not trying to be *too* snarky ...

I have got to say I'm enjoying LGU a lot more since the theme switch..

Because of my setup as well I'm finding that as I have email notifications on for certain threads that I'm using the show recent posts link a lot now as before I was missing a lot of the posts.

Both the default and the dark themes are easy on the eye and very pleasing to use.

I like the default theme with my desktop computer but prefer the dark theme on my Eee pc netbook.  Both are nice though.

I'm not getting in there and messin' around.  Grin  Even though I am very good at that!!  I don't think I even know how to change a Theme.
I like the wide screen.  Everything always looked nice to me.  (minor nit pick.....any chance of better smileys?   Cheesy )
