Important Info! Two new (Beta) themes if you don't like the default forums layout

In the dark them, links in posts should be a slightly darker color now. Will check sigs when I have a chance.

Yep, working in main posts now, links are darker and easily ID'd now.

Thank you for all the hard work Spark!!!!!!!!!!!

I know there is lots going on for you Sparks and I appreciate your efforts. The new BF is actually improved in excellent ways. Thanks very much.

FYI - This problem (below) I noted yesterday is ongoing.

Two things about the Dark Flat Awesome occurring in my sale thread - http://www.bladeforums.com/index.php?threads/a-john-doyle-original-his-guardless-hunter.1486217/

1) In the dark mode some text at the bottom of the page is unreadable (I can't even see it). It is some bold black text and some lighter black text which stays black rather than turning white.

Hmm - maybe I selected a "black" out of the text color options rather than the default. I'll check that out then re-report. NOPE that's not the issue.

2) The links in the drop down menu where I make my preference changes go invisible when I select them. I need to remember where it is and click in the dark.

I've decided that the Flat Awesome + will be my default but others using the Dark mode could be missing some info when viewing exchange threads or others.

You added text formatting. I removed it. At the far right of the text editor box there is a rhombus that looks like an old school eraser. Select your text and remove formatting.

Should be fixed. The people who did this style tied a lot of properties together, where if you change one it effects a ton of different things. Not sure why they made some of the choices they did, but I've had to go throguh quite a few locations to make things readable.

OK - Thanks. I didn't intend to add text formatting but so I did. Sorry to add more work for you. Thanks for the fix.

Can't speak on the dark style as white on black is hard for me to read, but the Flat Awesome is great.

I just noticed this today on the FA Dark. I can't tell what forums have new posts. You can see the bold/not bold on the FA, but not the FA Dark.

Any chance you can highlight the unread forums a bit better Spark?

Thank you Sir!!!!

When I look at lists of posts that are read / unread within a forum, I can see the bold ones are unread?

I stared at it for a while then checked a few forums, you're right it's there. I still think it's a bit too subtle a difference from the bold to non-bold with all white text in the FA Dark.
Its much more easily recognized in FA.
