You'll have seen the global message from @howyummy about the upcoming changes to Themes on BSN. There are two triggers to making changes: - With Anthem coming up, we'll add some Anthem themed design to the forum, but that's dependent on the extent to which (and speed) BioWare release suitable imagery from the game.
- Furthermore, an update to ProBoards' software (you'll hear the upcoming 'version 6' being talked about) is coming along.
Basically, we'll need to clear the decks of site customization to some extent before upgrading to version 6, so please expect some of the design functionality to disappear for a while until that's done, before it can ramp back up.
Summary of requests: - Be sure we keep a dark theme to use.
- Request for specific smilies

Which reminds of Anthem's title screen they showed off yesterday... I think I heard my eyeballs whimper.

Question: will there be multiple theme options for us to choose from? Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Anthem, or maybe older games?

Okay, then I'd request Baldur's Gate and KOTOR themes, given the time and creativity

I'm unsure if I can do it for a thread and I personally don't want to add more workload when there are things that need to be fixed.

I think light and dark themes for the 3 franchises (6 in total) would be a wonderful base.

I dunno could even pare it down to three, light Dragon Age, dark Mass Effect, have a public vote for the predominant colour of the third. At least to start? My reasoning is quality over quantity and just helping pare down the time for Howyummy. Everyone needs more drinking time. (Also having people vote on something like that could be fun.)

Speaking of design changes, what happened to the forum name? It looks....rather plain? I'll admit, after an initial shock it's rather growing on me. @howyummy can explain better, but we have the challenge that our logo cannot resemble EA/BioWAre copyright logos, so for safety, something generic is best. I also suspect that a more complex logo design can mess up different forum themes people might select.

Not sure if this is the right place, but I'm having something weird happen. I'm using the default bg (BSN Theme) and since today, I only see it pop up for like 1 second to be then replaced by just grey. First I thought it might be my adblock, but if I select one of the other themes from the Change Background thingy (like DA1, DA2 etc) they stay, even after refreshing the page.

The themes are being messed around with as @howyummy says. I too get the old Andromeda image for a second before my choice of background kicks in. Have you tried replacing the grey with a background image of your choice? : bsn.boards.net/thread/15071/choose-forum-background-wallpaper

Yes, I'm using the DA1 theme now

It's the plugin for it. I can't modify it so we just have to deal with it. 😢
