Second new feature, a new Theme: Endless Multicolor
We here at the orbiting VRCC headquarters have had several complaints about the message board being hard to read because of the light colored text on a dark background. In an effort make that better we have a new theme for you to try out. This theme is organized a little different at the top of the page, but functionally everything is the same.
If you would like to give it a try, Go to Profile, Look and Layout Preferences, and click CHANGE next to the current theme. Down at the bottom, select "Endless Multicolor"
Profile --> Look and Layout Preferences --> Current Theme: Change --> Endless Multicolor
Once you have that theme selected, you can try out the five different base color schemes associated with that theme buy clicking the colored boxes in the top left corner.
Warning: This theme should work correctly in all browsers, but I haven't tested every configuration. If it doesn't work for you, just switch back to what you were using before.

After seing the dark backgriound for so long ... this new one seems very 'BRIGHT!' I'll give it a few days ... see how things go. Shouldn't be that hard to adapt. Thanks for the update and improvements Scott.  |

Looks like 25 or so people are giving this theme a try.
I've grown to prefer the dark text on a light background myself.

I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music.

I am still debating but so far am sticking with the light background and dark text. Thanks Scott |

Mike if you're using the endless color theme just click on one of the five boxes to change the header and footer colors. I'm using Tennessee Orange....

I bumped it because some fellows were asking about the five little boxes in another thread. I use the same one that you do and like it as well.
