My reason, besides this not having a mission database or years of posts, is that it wasn't necessary. Yet people posted here far more than PD.com over easy-to-avoid bugs. Sadly, it has become necessary now.

I don't think there's any reason to treat what's happened as necessarily permanent.  TB chose to disable certain sections of the site in order to avoid the exploit compromising anyone's system, so if said exploit were to be fixed, I'd imagine it wouldn't be too hard to enable them again.  Granted, the feasibility of getting the exploit fixed is a whole other story...

don't ask us, ask those who develop SMF and its skins...

(I'm still yet to find a skin that doesn't completly suck)

 He asked "dear lord", unless you are somehow God. :D

The only skin that I have liked is the Christmas theme. That one is easyest to use for me. Plus I like the blue.

I like Black Light SMF...never really figured out why.

I'd be all for a theme that's closer to the PD.com's though. Heck, even if it's only accurate in the coloration. :P

My main concern was the why-the-hell-is-this-so-small 6-point font all over the place. :P I'm on the default SMF theme at the moment, and while I'm not a huge fan of the color scheme, at least I can read everything.

Yeah, if you get the teeny text, try a different theme. The text size isn't the same for all of them.

I like the debase theme, and MOST of the text size is fine. It's just that some stuff needs to be up-sized.

Good to see you here, TG.
I, for one, hope this is much, much more than a reconnaissance mission.

I've been using the Dusky theme.  Nothing too small, nice (ok) colors, and nothing too big either.

Hm. I'm kinda liking Dusky as well, but I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the blue. Perhaps we could make the links orange? At least it'd have somewhat of a throwback to PD.com.

Theme: Dusky (modified)
Background: #000000 (100% black)
Text: #FFFFFF (100% White)
Board color: #002266 (Dark blue)
Headings: #0077CC (Medium blue)
Link color: #FFBB00 (Light Orange)
Link rollover color: #000000 (100% White)

I'd just like to try that.. See what it would look like.
