I've been switching themes a lot lately, to try everything out, but there are (currently) 156 possible combinations (theme+bg)... I keep going back to Legacy as my favorite, even if there are aspects to the others I like as well... particularly I'm enamored with the quick page up/down floaty buttons in <<LAB>> even if the size/colors need some work. This isn't a diary... why am I rambling on like this? I went back to Prime. The white background is a little glary but with Legacy i was having trouble with the quoted text in the reply window. I don't know if it's just my screen but the text is white on a light grey background, and it just felt too hard on my eyes. Is it like that on your version? Oh, I see... I always use the 'BBCode' option, not looking at the Preview, I just now (like right now, as I'm typing this) I can see that the quoted text in the Preview-view is hard to read. I'll see if I can fix that. Edit: Actually, it looks like it's the same problem across all of the themes, except Prime.

So, enough about the things we can't change, let's talk about the things we can.What was most frustrating about this? Not knowing/remembering how to change? Not having enough notice? Is the announcement not visible enough? Help us figure out how to Do Better Next Time TM (seriously, because there will ALWAYS be a next time). Okay. This may probably the last i'll say on the matter, but you asked for feedback in good faith. Have a quick look at the Release Management/Development Lifecycle methodologies. Whilst it may be an overkill here the main principles are easily applocable and help with the overall approach. If you're in this field professionally then at the very least you've heard of it before, and if not, then the top level wiki article will suffice really. Outside of that, - don't do development/implement changes in live. this is what the labs/test environments are for - don't promote changes to live by stealth, it gets old very quick - anounce what the changes are going before executing them - give opportunity for your audience to check them out, and god forbid, solicit, consider, and discuss feedback and not dismiss it - having an easily identifiable feedback/bug fix channel that is actually monitored and responded to (having multiple threads or some forum may be too confusing) would help And yeah listen to your audience. Yes you're volunteers, and we're extremely grateful for all your hard work, but remember so is our community to some extent. We're small and are dependent on the external party to generate interest in new people in coming around here. Outside of that, our ability to attract a significant number of visitors is limited, therefore retaining the current audience is just as important. And not interacting with them, or promoting changes for the sake of changes (i am not talking the like of proboards upgrade or such here btw), well let's say may somewhat offputing just as well That's my 2 cents P.S. And just to get it off my chestl, in my opinion, the new social services buttons, the red "new" indicator, and the new spoiler tags are all sticking out as a sore thumb when using Legacy theme (with FemShep background) and break aesthetics of the theme

I appreciate the thorough explanation. There's a lot to consider, but I didn't want to let it languish without at least responding to say thank you.

My wallpaper and avatar work just fine. What I have noticed is that a good number of people have lost their avatars. It's just a generic avatar like the poster at the top of this page. Any ideas why?

Moved to this thread.... There are many people who don't have avatars by choice, or account has been deleted. In most themes they have that grey silhouette and sometimes I've noticed they have an N7 avatar instead, so it could be that you used to see the N7, but now they've switched?

I hate the mobile site, it inherits things from... somewhere, I'm not sure where. I'll see if I can figure out where it's pulling those colours from and, but ProBoards doesn't expose any of the formatting for the mobile site at all.

More design changes, I see. Now there are bright white bars in between posts on Legacy theme. Um, the point of that theme is to be dark. Bright white stripes all over the page pretty much negate that feature.
