About 30 mins til lock down...

Good bye old forum. I will not miss battling to post. I will not miss having to cut and paste from another app into your response box.

I'll not miss waiting over 10 sec for you to load up on my mobile.

Good bye...farewell...Auf wiedersehen...adios!

Catch you on the flip side..bis später!

Danke Alex for all the work you do here. Let's hope the flip is non eventful!

This is a Dragon posting on this old forum for the last time at Post No. 1875, for when I return there will be a new forum in it's place which Post No. 1876 will go on. Good thing I am going to Universal Studios tomorrow or I would have a hard time finding something to do in place of WP.

First post on the general forum. A little slow though, probably just due to all the users logging in at once.

Will it be possible to skin the forum with different colors? This bright white background is really hurting my eyes. Afraid I may not be able to use the forum anymore.

The new bleach white theme is absolutely... excruciating. It's not a sensory thing for me, or "this is too different". I have bad eyes and cannot look at this without bleaching my vision and hurting my head. Lowering my monitor's brightness apparently strains my eyes to read what I'm now writing, so it's not a fix. If the color scheme is here to stay, and I've not just missed that there's some sort of theme option, I'm not going to be able to stick around.

we're going to be tweaking things so nothing is permanent. obviously the theme will possibly change based on your feedback.

I'm not particularly sensitive to bright colours but I too am finding the white a bit too much (as in there's TOO much of it). An ability for members to choose between different colour themes would be cool (like via our account settings or maybe a dropdown menu at the bottom of the webpage or something).

What board software is this anyway?

Agree with those who wrote it's too bright.
Hardly any contrast.
Glad, they're here:

edit: I see they have little squares around them.
