Forum Theme question

Is this 2013 "Stealth" black and white the only option allowed? It's the only choice the drop down will allow down at the bottom.

I just find it dreary and the contrast a little difficult to read. I"d prefer something a little easier on the eyes.

I agree

It does make it a little hard to read.I have to put on my reading glasses to make it better.
I would much prefer,a white background with black letters.
see ya,old retired guy

IB is in the process of switching to a newer format. Progress is slow with them sadly.

Here's a preview of it. Keep in mind nothing is final at this point.

Icon9 white format,where is it ?

I thought the "office",guys were working on a white format ?
I think RF is getting a little more traffic,because of the "other",forums problems.
I know i've been coming her more. That sample of the white was great.
Why can't you give us a choice,between white and dark.
I much prefer the white !!!We want white !!!
see ya,old retired guy

Yeah I'm a little disappointed it hasn't happened yet too. I'd probably be here more if it wasn't so god awful hard on my eyes to read. But I know from past experience changing over a forum to a new format takes time to transfer over everything. Evidently this one just doesn't have the option which is kind of strange to me that would be but I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

The "other site",has it,had it long time.They give you 2 to chose from.
Dark or white.How difficult can it be ??
I am a computer idiot.So I'm one to talk.
You would think the guys,that started this site would have figured it out by now.
NO OFFENCE guys

The guy that started this site is long gone, but he was a true Ranger enthusiast involved in the community. The site is now owned by Internet Brands and they are not involved in the community at all. They are a forum business and own a ton of forums. RF is low priority because of it's traffic levels. The do not get in a hurry and you are unlikely to see the new format any time soon. They have the know how but like I said, priorities. Back when I had a more control over the site we did have two color options, but IB has deprecated the lighter colored theme and I no longer have that level of control over things so I can't make the white theme accessible to you guys myself. We just have to wait.

I hate to have to suggest this, but if the site is hard to read, I suggest taking your mouse and left clicking near what you're reading and "highlight" the words. This will put a blue background around the words, and the words will turn white.
