I installed a new theme the other day on here. Haven't set it to default, but I've been using it.

Could use some GBH-specific edits, but so far I'm impressed with it.

It's called "Midnight Glow" and you can select it at the bottom of the page to see what it looks like.

Let me know what you think!

Personally, I like it because it flows nice, has a nice color set, and it isn't laggy on slow computers like the current theme is. It has less bloat and less fancy JavaScript and whatnot.

We shouldnt make it the default forum skin unless we have it customized. We need to stick with warrior until then. Also, I agree with Psyman the green sucks. I do like the button layout better than warrior though

I like this a lot. Let's personalize it (like I know how to do that) and make it the default theme.

Like I said before, it is easier to use than the main one but has nothing at all branding our site and we need to have our own identity. Feel free to switch it to this but none of us admin should change the "warrior" theme from being the default view for non members until we customize this one

I like it but everyone is right the green is just a little to bright. It is cool though.

the only thing about customizing this is the theme is transparent like the last one. That rules out a custom BG because it would just be covered up. There barely any room at the top for a custom banner and if we put a logo up it would have to be pretty small.

The title midnight glow is pretty big, if we replaced that with out logo and title it would be fine. I like this because it doesn't lag on my shit computer at work. we don't need a background
