I've put a new SFM theme TremPlus together, based on main site layout.
You can test it before I reset the forum default, just change your theme in your forum profile settings.

Pink granger theme. Go.

Asvarox · « **Reply #2 on:** May 13, 2011, 06:26:08 pm »

I think it needs further work

1) The "lighter grey" for odd posts is a bit too bright IMO
2) Text is getting into those metallic borders
3) Quote display would use a bit of work
4) Text in general could be more spaced out (between lines)
5) Heading says "Hello Asvarox" though "Asvarox" is 1/2 of "Hello" size which looks quite bad.

Over by the board name in the index, I just noticed that it displays the name of the post instead of the thread. Bug or feature?

EDIT: Also, why does modding releases human look away; I feel shunned

CorSair · « **Reply #4 on:** May 13, 2011, 08:00:23 pm »

I agree what Asvarox says. Also if possible, can you make text little bit larger, it seems to be quite small in my opinion. Otherwise its awesome.
@ Ingar: How long this theme is avaible? This day or two or more?

Because it saw dretch that is incoming, and it will probably eat him.

@Asvarox:
Yes. Also, the post preview is disturbingly black.

@Dr. A. Goon:
Post name instead of thread name is a feature, it seems the current default forum theme doesn't do it,
but the SMF default theme does (which I have been using).

The human on the mod release board is the icon for "new post in subforum".
Unfortunatly, I don't have a decent granger render, or I'd probably use that.

@CorSair:
I hope to mold this theme into a decent default theme, so I don't plan on removing it

If you're going to get together a new theme, care to add a report button to temp-trem? Its just one little button!

I really like the top and borders of the new theme. The "new posts"/"no new posts" thing could use some work, the dretches (no new posts) draw a similar amount of attention, and perhaps more attention than the humans (new posts), which is awkward.

Put the name of topic starter under topic name instead of a separate column.

c4 · « **Reply #8 on:** May 14, 2011, 04:43:21 am »

The posts have scrollbars.

cron · « **Reply #9 on:** May 14, 2011, 04:48:36 am »

(A.) The theme should use 90% screen width to match the other pages on trem.net, and (B.) the quote boxes seem to extend past the column they're in as shown here

F50 · « **Reply #10 on:** May 14, 2011, 05:49:26 am »

Someone specified quote width in pixels as opposed to percent block width : )

Asvarox · « **Reply #11 on:** May 14, 2011, 02:16:39 pm »

Uh and yeah, that doesn't really concerns me that much, but I think forum width should be specified by pixels, not percents. I've heard that "relative" sites can be annoyingly hard to read on widescreen monitors (one line of text takes 3-4 sentences). It also gives more control on how the site is displayed on different computers and makes main page and the forum "glue" even more which is neat.

Other than that I really like the theme

Ingar · « **Reply #12 on:** May 14, 2011, 02:47:10 pm »

Matching the width of the main site and keeping the dragoon at the correct location
proves to be extremely difficult. This theme business is rather tedious work.

Perhaps you're only a developer because you're the only one willing to do the work...

KillerWhale · « **Reply #16 on:** May 14, 2011, 06:35:10 pm »

You can no longer click the "new" button to go to the latest post you have not read.

[EDIT: Just realised, every thread is marked as new, even if it has no new posts.]

Heh, it's bugged too: it show 'new' everywhere. Will be fixed in the next update.

That works fine, I moved the "new" icon but I didn't move the actual link around it.

Update
The new icon should work now as well as the button to collapse the header.
I've set it as default theme.

Someperson1 · « **Reply #20 on:** May 15, 2011, 05:07:21 am »

Could you possibly change the contrast between the darker grey of every other post and the lines before and after the body of the post so that they are not invisible? it will make a friend

You can still use it, just choose whatever theme you like in your account settings.
(see preview picture in the first post)

It looks like the beginning of a nice theme. A few gripes though. Besides the width issue,

^ This area on the main forum page needs some attention. The today/yesterday highlight could be either changed to a different color that stands out more or made a larger font. Alternatively have the "last post" not highlighted. As it is there are too many highlights in too small an area.

Meisseli · « **Reply #24 on:** May 15, 2011, 05:08:06 pm »

The theme has a broken [ list]. The "abcd" below should look roughly like:

   a
   b
   c
   d

but instead it shows as:

a
b
c
d

vcxzet · « **Reply #25 on:** May 15, 2011, 05:45:45 pm »

You should add a horizontal line before the post content.
Also margins are too large it wastes too much space.
IMHO you should apply the color theme to SMF default theme
