Should the forum theme be rotated every few days to keep the forum interesting?

Yes! Rotating the theme keeps the forum interesting and stimulating, and gives us a new surprise every time we come here!

No. That's kind of annoying. I'd rather see the same theme each time. Just pick one of the BLUE and WHITE themes as the default and leave it that way.

This blue water background is horrible on the eyes and causes eye strain. Please get rid of it ASAP or at least give us the option of going back to old theme which is much easier on the eyes.

The Blue Turtle at the top is larger than the Happier Abroad heading.
I could remove the Blue Turtle logo, but I left it there of course because it fits better with this theme. lol

Don't worry. We will switch to the next specialty theme soon. If I left the option for you to not see these cool new themes, then what would be the point of rotating them to give you guys some variety? lol. Be a good sport and try to enjoy it. Try to enjoy the beauty and variety of these things. They have personality after all. lol

Here now is the 1996 theme. Isn't it rad? Doesn't it make you feel like you're in outer space or a planetarium or looking at the night sky on a clear starry night? lol

@MrMan isn't this dark starry theme easy and pleasant on the eyes? lol

I agree but in general I like this starry theme more than the green and black palm theme. It might be better if the boxes had a fill to make the text and posts easier to read instead of being transparent.

I agree. It is distracting, looks primitive and generally sucks. It is also anachronistic. There is a time and place for everything, and the time for themes like this was back in the 90s.

I think a better idea would be to allow each user to select whatever theme they want for their individual profile but keep the standard theme as the default unless the user selects something else for their own profile. Special holidays could have that theme for everyone like you always do for Halloween and some other holidays.

Why use the term "anachronistic"? Why not a more positive and cool sounding word like "retro"? Lol. Of course it looks somewhat "anachronistic", it's supposed to since the theme is called 1996. lol

Agree. That's the best solution. We will eventually do that. But for now, we are just having fun showing different themes and rotating them for variety and to spice things up. Lighten up man. lol

I just thought I would make a friendly suggestion because this was posted in the Suggestion area of the forum but I'm fine with whatever. One of my favorite themes was the turtle ocean theme but I also like the starry theme.
