Ah stop whinging - I reckon it looks quite cool (Subsilver2). :D

You'll all get used to it.

Trond, sorry, but the themes you suggest are not really readable IMHO. I really prefer the new clean style of subsilver2. But I aggree that the default phpbb3 theme is annoying, especially on widescreen displays.

I'd suggest this template here: http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... &t=1146715
Easily readable imho and nice colors too. What do you think?

Here's a live demo: http://www.phpbb.com/styles/demo/3.0/index.php?style=15
Windows 7 & PureBasic 4.4

I don't see why that style is better than subsilver2, it has less contrast than subsilver2, which makes it harder to read, IMHO. ;-)

The default style is now subsilver2, i agree about the constrast and wide screen issues. Also 'code' tag font has been increased for subsilver2 style (to be like the old one).

I would vote for this one...
The color contrast is the best i've found:

Very nice one! But only if it supports "screen-wide" width (dunno what it's called)...

Same here! I didn't bother saying anything because I thought maybe it was just my PC (a cookie prob or something), but now that you've mentioned it, I'll confirm: what's the difference?

maybe most people have so poor displays (or so badly adjusted), that the style how that is now has too little contrast...

I just updated my signature....
the sizes are strange, dunno what the Units are... it Size=120 and size=80 now...
oh... and have a nice day.

Is there a way to set the default of "Display results as:" in the search to "Topics" instead of "Posts" ?

I have to set it to Topics every time I do a search.... tried to look in the control panel but didn't see a section for the search options...

In the previous version of the forum the default was "Topics", btw.
