i've changed the default theme on the forum to a slightly wider one.
feedback and eventual bug reporting welcome.

for those of you who really liked the old look, go:
profile>look and layout>current theme, and click the change button. the old one is called bluBlur Skin.

I personally do like the contained look of the old theme (hence using it!)

The only thing I noticed in the 5 minutes of use before it got disabled was that it is very difficult to notice which topics have new posts. The light blue and grey are very close to each other.

Yeah, I'll agree with that. At least the new icon is still there.

yes, the new icon shows new topics, also topics with unread posts are bold, not clear enough for ya?? :P

I like the new theme, it's a bit more elegant
