Forums upgraded to vB4

This Blackened is so much easier on the eyes then that Light bulb skin. I know Blacksmart and the silver one are going to be implemented when converted, just curious if there are going to be any new ones added?

[Shadida]

Blackend FTW. Thanks a lot - I know what a pain in the ass it is to install and configure this junk.

[Eole]

I like it !

[Norellicus]

Blackend is no longer black and looks more like a toned down version of the default skin (ctrl+f5 doesn't help)

The bar at the top is also fucked, search bar overlaps all the other page controls

I'd show a pic but bgbucket doesn't give me upload options anymore and other image uploaders are all blocked from here

[Tyche]

Same for me

[Kurp]

Same for me also.

[Eldelphia]

I like it but would prefer a more subtle skin other than black or the default. However, it's pretty cool and thanks for all the work that goes on here to help me distract myself at work when it's quiet

[Xajii]

Blackend isn't dark anymore...><

[Hyan]

My avatar is smaller now, I like it.

I wonder what else has been improved?

[Enedin]

Srsly, do you people all live in caves with no lighting whatsoever? What happens when you read a book* printed with white paper, do you complain to the publisher and ask them to print you a black book with white font?

This is a ridiculous statement, since on-screen reading differs a lot from real life reading. A screen actually radiates light, while a piece of paper absorbs light. Therefore, white text on black background is the way to go on-screen, since too much light (white) will tire your eyes very fast. Paper is the exact opposite.

Therefore, dark skin ftw.

This is pretty bad....

[Sonomaa]

no idea, ragn will look at it, its doing the same for me

[Lazytowner]

MY EYES, OH SWEET JESUS THEY'RE BURNING WHITE -- oh wait there's a black skin. Sweet.

Prefacing with a "sorry if it's been mentioned":

In the old forum version there was a page very similar to "New Posts", I believe it was under "Quick Links" that displayed all of the threads in order of most recent post, yet differed from New Posts in that it also included threads marked as read too. I wish I could remember the name of it but I'm drawing a blank; do you know what I'm talking about, Sono or Ragns? Anyway, that was a great feature and made finding recent threads really easy by not having to navigate from the main page and dig via checking forum sections individually. Is that page going to be restored to this forum version or was that just a feature enabled in the last? I just thought to bring it up when it was mentioned that Ragns added a lot of what was great about the old version. Sorry to botherbother

[Sonomaa]

well ragn blames me for the skin going from black to white so I have no idea when itll be fixed or if itll be fixed. he says I edited something that I didnt. regardless it will be fixed just give it time.

Please post now only regarding missing features you have noticed so we can compile a list. Any bitching is just you raising your post count at the moment so fuck off.

when I try to switch the skin only the top banner goes black, the rest stays lightbulb blue

Question because I'm tarded: were do you change to new skin I see people praising? I do not see the option.

I had trouble finding it at first, but it was under the Settings page, then lower left corner.

Edit: General Settings, bottom of page. After changing to 'blackened' it showed up in the bottom left corner

Normally you'd go to "Settings" in the top-right of the page and then click "General Settings" in the left navigation bar on that page to find the theme menu near the bottom of the list of settings, but as mentioned it isn't displaying correctly.

I actually thought this was on purpose as this weird skin amalgamation is actually really pleasant, save some of the display irregularities at the top of the page.

Blackened skin does absolutely nothing for me. Still pure white with blue and gold. Also the top left search bar is overlapping. (alot of this was said already, just putting in my 2 cents)
