change forum background color

[geontemt]

Is it possible to change the forum background color as it is hard for me to read grey on black?  I did a search and it referenced a dead link and I can not find anything in the settings.

Thanks,
George

Profile/Modify profile/Current theme

That will take you to the Choose a Theme page. We cannot guarantee that everything will work right in a different theme.

Dan, I think that might be an Administrator option.

I'll repost my previous suggestion that I deleted:
Most browsers allow users to set a preferred background and foreground color, and give the option of forcing its use on all pages. Search your browser's help file for more information

Modify Profile only lists; Account Settings, Forum Profile, Look & Layout, Notifications, Buddies/Ignore.  Current Theme is not listed and I have gone through all the options but nothing for changing the background.  I use Safari and there is not a way to change the background there either.  On another forum there is a setting that is modifiable but there does not appear to be an option on this forum. 

Thank you for your help,
George

OK, I changed the options and you should now be able to go to Look and Layout and choose between the current BHG theme and one called OrangeGrey, that has dark letters on a white background. Once again I will mention that I don't know if everything will work as intended in that different theme. That was why we locked the choice in the first place.

Fixed, thank you!  The standard color combo is very unpleasant to my eyes.

You probably wouldn't appreciate the old horizontal website either!

Oh boy, that's certainly unique.
My god, what were you thinking!?  ;D

That people would remember it for at least a decade!

That was the early days of the internet, before it became so formulaic and predictable. I find it very amusing that it upsets people. Maybe I will do it again some day.

I also forgot to mention that if anyone is really upset by the forum layout they can always look at it in WAP2 by clicking the link at the bottom of the page. Should work great on that Blackberry.

Yes, but make it scroll to the left this time!

That’s it, I’m calling The Hague, ICC needs to hear of this!
