If you have a slow internet connection, you may be interested to know that there is now a "lite" skin, with most of the graphics stripped out. It took me 20 minutes to make so if you notice any glaring problems please don't hesitate to point them out.

To change to the "lite" skin click this link:

You may also change skins in the user control panel. Click "edit options" -- it's under "miscellaneous options". If you are still experiencing difficulties, you may also turn off signatures, avatars and images under "thread display options".

Have I said "Thanks" yet? It's awesome!! :hug:

Great job, Straylight! I've been using the Lite version the whole day and haven't had any problems yet.

Wow, that's cool! It looks so...white...hehe! Loaded almost instantly, too.

PostPosted: **Mon Feb 02, 2004 2:19 pm**

Excellent; and it does indeed load faster, too! ^_^

Edit: I just found a minor problem with it; apparently spoilers can be seen because of the alternate color scheme. Look at my test thread to see what I mean.

Looks good

I have DSL, but I really love cleanness in forum layouts, and love the purity of light colors. ^^ This is a very pleasant skin, and loads virtually instantaneously with me. ^^

Thanks for pointing this out. The problem has now been fixed.

Hey, found a bug...

Randomly, in the Computing forum, the skin switches back to the regular one...o.O

Nice one. I've just fixed it.

I'm with Lluvia -- this skin is great, and even on a fast line, is definitely nicer to read and use. Nice work.

PostPosted: **Wed Feb 04, 2004 8:05 am**

I haven't got a chance to properly look at this yet... I like it. It's pretty fast. I haven't used it extensively, but I didn't notice any errors.

PostPosted: **Wed Feb 04, 2004 9:42 pm**

Speaking of Errors. How come

PostPosted: **Thu Feb 05, 2004 3:52 pm**

Quick reply might have disappeared because you clicked the rollup button

. I think rollup statuses are stored in the cookies.. so you might wanna try clearing those. Other that that I can't imagine how the quick reply would randomly disappear...

Not sure what you mean by page index.

I have DSL, but I still like the lite skin better...geez...programmers and their hobbies...

After extensive testing and use, I am going to say that I really like the "lite" skin. Two main reasons: speed, and more text space width is used (i.e. in the "regular skin" the side margins are wider and therefore not as much text can fit in one line).

PostPosted: **Thu Feb 12, 2004 7:32 pm**

Much better! The text is easier to read!

PostPosted: **Fri Feb 13, 2004 3:05 pm**

Interesting.... usually if I have an internet problem.... I change programs.

PostPosted: **Sat Feb 14, 2004 2:53 pm**

Myself, I just change the Internet.

"In other news, major portions of the Internet backbone went offline after a sudden and rapid change in the Net's core protocols caused widespread system crashes and software errors. Rapid response by the American US-CERT technology crisis research team traced the source of the unprecedented specification changes back to the apartment of a sleep-deprived MD resident in Southern California. Attempts to contact the resident in person have failed because he hasn't shaved yet after being on-call overnight, but in a conference call to the FBI, the as-yet unnamed suspect simply stated, 'Well, I just didn't like it, so there.'"

Straylight, I have found the same bug in a different place and it is very consistent instead of being random.

When I clicked on the Tech Sub-Forum link, I noticed that I can only view it with the Regular/"Dark" skin.

If you can also fix this, that would be great. I prefer the "Lite" skin.

I've been using the lite

Does this feature no longer work since the board changeover? I tried to apply it but it stayed black. Really slow loading on my comps.

EDIT: Nevermind. I just used a bottle of white out and colored my screen with it...

Actually, I did the user cp and changed it that way.
