New forums layout

Post by Dell »

The new forums are cool and all, but i have no idea what the icons mean...is there a glossary somewhere that tell what they all mean? like...what the icon for a new thread looks like, or what it means when theres a little skull by the post, or the fangs, or the red little icon..lol.

If not, can we add one in? or at least describe them? =]

feel free to post what they are as you figure them out.

The other theme should have a bit more clear (prosilver), well hopefully.

So far, ive figured out the dark little statue guy means no new posts, the lighter colored one means a new post, the lock next to em means the post is locked, dunno what the little skull means still, or when the little statue guy is red

....the new layout rocks...! I"m trying to get used to it though! It's about time (:, the last time the layout was changed was... like never. It's been the same since 1997 or what not. Well, welcome to the year 2000! :D

would love a tad bigger message fonts for better readability
(or is there somewhere where we can adjust that individually?)

thumbs up on the layout tho, looks more enticing, livelier....and of course, bloodier.
me like. :twisted:

there is a little A with up down arrow on it for Font sizing try clicking on it to increase size of font. I would recommend the Glass theme as being the happy middle. Fitting the Darker theme while still being complete enough and readable enough to follow.
