Please check out the styles and let me know which ones you like. The ones with the fewest votes will be removed. If you vote a particular style up, then we'll make sure that it gets patched up to look respectable.

BlueStar

bo20

USFTECH

Desert Sand

Rooq

BlackSmart

I-Bulletin

fromBasics Dark

Hain · 07-20-2008, 01:06 PM

I-Bulliten - always used it

Cool deal with the new skins though.

Shauk · 07-20-2008, 01:10 PM

digging blacksmart

ring · 07-20-2008, 01:18 PM

Blacksmart is easy on my eyes,
in the same way as TFP green.

Punk.of.Ages · 07-20-2008, 01:23 PM

I've been using fromBasics Dark, but I really like Blacksmart.

I'm switching....

MexicanOnABike · 07-20-2008, 01:42 PM

I voted for these:
USFTECH=cool and I like the colours. but might be a bit too tech/sci-fi.
Desert Sand= i like the colours but not the title.
Rooq=this one reminds me of VB bulletin. which is what i'm using now.

Will you be keeping the old ones?

Redjake · 07-20-2008, 01:45 PM

Nothing beats the TFP green! The only other one I could stand was bo20.

Halx · 07-20-2008, 01:47 PM

Insignia and Green are staying.

i only use fromBasics Dark. it's absolutely easiest on my eyes.

ShaniFaye · 07-20-2008, 02:03 PM

I was really jazzed to see Desert Sand back, but it doesnt look the same as it did a few version ago

I like it though

xepherys · 07-20-2008, 02:34 PM

Blacksmart is okay, but I'd prefer to stick with fromBasics Dark

Grasshopper Green · 07-20-2008, 02:36 PM

I like lighter colored skins - for some reason the darker ones hurt my eyes. I like Desert Sand as well, better than the I-Bulletin I currenly use.

CinnamonGirl · 07-20-2008, 02:48 PM

Out of these, I like Simplicity the best... but I think I'll stick with TFP green. It's totally classic.

fresnelly · 07-20-2008, 02:50 PM

I'm going to give Blacksmart a try for now and see how it grows on me. It has the most potential among the newcomers.

If I decide against it, I'll be going back to Frombasicsdark Wide. That's a keeper.

blahblah454 · 07-20-2008, 03:05 PM

I really like the Blacksmart and USF ones... must compare the two more closely

Blacksmart wins! Love it!

sapiens · 07-20-2008, 04:40 PM

I prefer from fromBasics Dark Wide.

MexicanOnABike · 07-20-2008, 04:43 PM

you need to keep VBulletin 3. it's the easiest on the eyes. And it looks just like the green but lighter.

ngdawg · 07-20-2008, 04:43 PM

Edit. My precious 3 isn't gone after all.

MexicanOnABike · 07-20-2008, 04:44 PM

I bulletin is ok but too white. Atleast with the dark blue in VBulletin 3, it made a contrast between posts. It is still my favourite.

SSJTWIZTA · 07-20-2008, 04:59 PM

Im liking Black smart, Basic dark, and for some reason Blue Star.

im so glad TFP Green is staying, it has always been my choice.

laconic1 · 07-20-2008, 05:33 PM

USFTech is my favorite, I find it to be the most readable. BlackSmart is good too. I also like BlueStar and Desert Sand. The main thing I didn't like about some of the light colored themes is that the text is too light colored, not enough contrast.

Stare At The Sun · 07-20-2008, 05:48 PM

Old school Green.

Only way to fly.

ItWasMe · 07-20-2008, 06:43 PM

I like USFTECH and BlackSmart. I usually use Insignia.

x2. I like the little bit of color over blacksmart, too, plus it's not the wide format which I'm not a fan of.

MSD · 07-20-2008, 08:20 PM

My two cents:
In USFtech, kill the border around the custom title and center it below the avatar.

I'm going to take a few days rotating through the ones I like and seeing how they work and look.

ngdawg · 07-20-2008, 08:30 PM

I'm in agreement with Medusa. I've been going thru them all and the dark ones really hurt my eyes. On the other hand, the really lighter ones do as well-as laconic said, their contrast isn't enough on most besides the v3.

mixedmedia · 07-20-2008, 08:32 PM

Blacksmart, i-bulletin and basics dark aren't bad

I still prefer the green, though

Grancey · 07-20-2008, 09:23 PM

For what it's worth, vBulletin 3 is my favorite.
Desert Sand is the best of the list.

ipollux · 07-20-2008, 09:44 PM

bo20 is the best one. I shan't ever change from it. Thanks, Halx.

BTW, I realize it hasn't received many votes. We all know that's because it's white. You are all racist bastards!!!

I jest, of course. I love the updates.

Poppinjay · 07-21-2008, 04:22 AM

I like 2e Forest. Because it has trees.

Halx · 07-21-2008, 04:27 AM

Simplicity has been voted off the island!

Redlemon · 07-21-2008, 06:09 AM

Why do most of the themes have the same color for followed and notfollowed links? Can that be adjusted?

(edit) I just checked all of the themes, and only TFP Green visually distinguishes between links you have read and links you haven't. Since that's critical to how I use TFP, I can only use Green.

Halx · 07-21-2008, 07:35 AM

Redlemon, Insignia has very slight color difference between new and visited links.

LoganSnake · 07-21-2008, 07:49 AM

Blue Star is the best one. Followed by the vBulletin 3, followed by I-Bulleltin.

I can't believe so many of you like BlackSmart. Eye strain major. o_O.

Seriously? Your eyes must be better than mine. (Considering that my eyeglasses prescription is around -13 diopters, that's not saying much. But I've never noticed an issue with color perception.)

for sure!! the black is cute for a few min but to read a full page, my eyes start to bleed. that's why I changed from green to Vbulletin3.

SSJTWIZTA · 07-21-2008, 08:22 PM

you know ive just thought about it. i have used TFP Green since the day i joined.

nothing beats it.
