slngsht Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Try this: Click "My Profile" from the top nav bar, then "Edit Profile" from the left nav. Scroll down and look for "Select your preferred theme:". Pick any of the choices and click "Save". The default one is YafVision, which is the dark scheme. Any of the other ones give you a variety of styles, almost all with black text on white background. You only have to do this one time - the forum will remember your settings as long as you are logged in, no matter which computer you go to.

Alaskossie Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I got it! I don't know what I had before -- a mix of old and new and illegible. But I'm now no longer the bad "Apple." Alaskossie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderbrake Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 :d :d :d I am SOOOOO happy that Mazda has again performed a miracle, and allowed each of us to select the appearance that we prefer. Which one is the old one? ( short memory span) I am reset to Standard, and I think that's it. Thanks again Mazda..... YOU DA MAN :hurray: :hurray: :hurray: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slngsht Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 Unfortunately the old one is the one I modified, but alot of the other ones are very similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al N. Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I find that "Chrome" setting is good for legibility, yet retains grey bars and syncs with new header.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scannon Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Mazda, Let me add my thanks, those of us with aging eyes do not read white print easily. The banner goes off screen with a scroll bar on my monitor while everything else fits on the screen. Is there something I can do about this?

MHKflyer52 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Hi Mazda, Just read this thread and changed to the standard version and now have the new banner, WAY COOL....The yaf.....version seems to give me the old banner the one with Al's car making the turn. Thanks for the great work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scannon Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Skip, what resolution are you running on your computer? I'm running 800 x 600, again to aid my aging eyes. It seems stange that the USA7s banner would run off the screen yet the advertising banner and forum sections size themselves correctly.

slngsht Posted April 3, 2008 Author Share Posted April 3, 2008 Ah, yes... that is a problem. I'll see what I can do about that. You know what's funny is that I actually changed my resolution to 800X600 to see how bad it would be, and saw what you're talking about. Then I thought to myself "eh, nobody runs 800X600 anymore..." :rofl: (not trying to call you a nobody ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slngsht Posted April 3, 2008 Author Share Posted April 3, 2008 I'm running 800 x 600, again to aid my aging eyes. Skip Skip, I made some changes that should improve the banner size for 800X600. Let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solder_guy Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I appreciate the effort .. but I don't like the banner .. I like pics of real cars .. which I think gives visitors a better feeling about what the Se7en experience is about. The black on black frog eye doesn't stand out .. When I saw all the black, I immediately switched to a warmer blue setup ,.. which now makes it very difficult to discriminate an imbedded web link.
