We should change the appearance of this forum

@Kilgore Contact @brad about this, please.

@Androsclerozat Whats the theme you want? Link it and lets make a poll.

@Kilgore
The one called Evolve, but with lighter color. It's hard to read with all the time dark background. The more similar to lowtoxinforum theme, the better. I've never saw a forum so pleasing looking.
Other than that one, XenBase looks fine too, but changing background from white to a light color.

But I think both cost between $25-40.

Looking into this I don't think it's possible to add themes like that to the site. If you want something added it has to be from custom nodebb themes it seems.

@brad you can searech all available themes Extend => Plugins => Find Plugins and searching for nodebb-theme.

@Kilgore Do any of these seem better to you? They all seem worse to me.

If you don't like the appearance of the forum, first look through the "skins" -- Profile -> Settings -> Select a Skin

You can send me some custom CSS that you like and I'll set aside one of the custom skins and tweak it so that it fits your preferences.

As for the overall color/layout/css of the forum, you can post a snippet and a particular change in the Meta section with a poll. If most people like the change, then I'll add it to the default site's CSS.

@brad I agree those look worse, what is bothering me is that I changed my theme to a darker skin but the bioenergetic forum bar at the top doesn't change colour and stays white

@calvinklein21101 If you can figure out how to change the top bar using css and tell me the theme you're using I'll add the css to that theme.
