I must be one of the only person here who likes the width of the BSN themes.

Whenever you can work out the font size thing, that will be awesome. I much prefer the "BSN" style themes (I like the BSNuf Dark, especially), but the fonts are just much too large for my taste in them. As another note, if it's something that's reasonable to alter: The "BSN" themes are fairly narrow and seem to have a lot of wasted space when using wider screens. I don't know if it's a matter of setting width to percentage rather than pixel based or what, but this being looking into would be appreciated (not that big a deal - when the font issue gets worked out, it will be even less of a bother). Other people have expressed the font size is small as well. As for the narrowness, to me, if I make it wide, then what's the point of having a wallpaper that's just going to get covered? I wonder if the font thing is a mobile vs desktop issue? As for the width thing, I'm on a desktop with a fairly large screen. For me, it means about half the screen is just the background image. I totally get wanting to see the image, and as I said, this isn't that big a deal to me. I was just throwing it out there. If it were me, I'd have the main content a bit wider. Not so much that it'd cover the entire background, mind. Just a bit wider than it is now. Again, no big deal. Just a difference in aesthetic preference, I suppose.

I'll do a test with my boyfriend's monitor using percentages instead of pixels. People still use smaller screens in 2016.

Responsive web design is hard. But this kind of thing is exactly where it's helpful if you can pull it off. Obviously, you gotta go with what works for the most people, so don't feel like you need to change what's working.
I was just mentioning a thing I happened to notice, honestly.

BSNuf Dark is pretty cool. Now I have a question... is the bottom / top button on the side a little redundant now that most people know about the page / action ribbon at the top, and you have added the page buttons at the bottom of threads? Anybody else just keep staring at that button?

Anybody else just keep staring at that button? If anyone's like me, I have a tendency to go back up and hit the home page button. Everyone works differently. We'll see how this goes. If consensus goes, I'll remove something.

BSN Legacy [F] (and likely M) (screenshot attached) The background and text are the same color in quotes that are within a quote when replying. Note: i've highlighted some of the text in order to read it. Should be fixed now!

I did some trial runs with some of the themes. Really liking the dark ones like BSNuf, and the femshephard one However, all the modified themes seem to have a problem with attached images/gifs/videos when there are lots of them. This Animu thread, page 2, was tested with: themes BSNuf Dark and BSN Legacy F, and M.
So, those posts with lots of images/gifs added in one post, just show lots of blank when scrolling down half a screen or more, until at the very end of said post. I tested this with various modded themes, first on the Behind the monitor Git Gud thread, but then saw even this longer blankness in the Animu thread. The only themes I noticed that did NOT have this problem, were the Default, and BSN Theme. Those show all the gifs and pics just normally (on the right in my example). And as pointed out on the right above, for some reason, some posts above vroom's post, shows all their attached pics just fine, even though there are lots of them. I wonder, what makes such a difference between a few posts? I was wondering, could this be just on my laptop, or has anyone else noticed this? I pondered about it in the behind the monitor thread, and someone suggested testing it with other themes, so I did. (I can't test it myself on other computers right now.) I have this as a larger pic available, as well as another horribly copypasted example from the BTM git gud thread, if Yummy wants them sent via message - if needed. EDIT: Oh yeah, some hours ago earlier today, I noticed the same with the femshepherd theme - back then it didn't show just the black blankness, but instead it showed the fempsheperd background picture instead, when I was scrolling down the BTM git gud thread, where it had several pictures in a row (no matter if they were in Spoilers or just generally below each other). Later this evening while testing, it showed the same black blank space with that femshep theme, too. If this helps.

I went ahead and tested this out on my boyfriend's screen, same resolution (1366 x 768) and zoom size (125%). Everything looked fine on his screen. However, this does not mean I'm debunking your concern and going to throw it out the window. If anyone else has this issue, please post. I will add one note though: The basic themes, excluding Default and BSN Theme, were modified in both CSS and Layout Templates (HTML). As far as I remember, the only edits I made in the HTML section is the header wrapper to match BSN Prime's header. Which explains why Default and BSN Theme seem to be functional compared to the ones I made as they are left untouched with the exception of color changes. Nothing else. EDIT: Could you send me the larger resolution?

yeah no problem There's no hurry for these either, anyway. OK, I also tested this on hubby's older laptop. It's connected to a large tv screen, but the screen res is 1600x900 on that attached laptop. With that resolution, the Animu thread shows even worse; there's more stuff invisible there. Like the first posts on page 2, that showed fine on my laptop, won't show at all on his with that resolution. Instead, he sees the background image of the BSNuf Theme, for most of that thread page. Wow. So, clearly this is a resolution related problem with laptops' mediocre resolutions..? And damn, my laptop's less than a year old and not the worst, cheapest crap either (ok, not expensive but still). Anyway, at least on mine, I can see all gifs, pics and videos just fine, when using the default themes at least, so not a huge problem. I can work around that with them. But thought to report it anyway, in case others notice this. (sniff, the femshep and BSNuf were pretty).

I return to my duties when I wake up. I fixed most of the issues in between. But if there's more, don't hesistate to report to me!

I like the header!
I guess my only suggestion is, although light font on dark backgrounds look cool, I think I prefer to read dark font on light backgrounds.

Just wanted to thank Yummy for all the hard work she's done for the BSN, all of the themes look great and I'm positive it's one of the reasons this community is so successful.

I skimmed the replies in this thread for a dupe, but I admit I might have missed some comment about this. If it is a known issue, please ignore. For the BSN Theme, the Preview edit mode has a different color background (dark blue) than the actual post (gray). This makes it difficult to pick text colors. Screenshots. Preview: Post: I did a spot check of BSN Omega and it does not have this problem, both backgrounds are white. Although the Preview font size might be slightly smaller than the post size in Omega, not sure though, didn't inspect.
