I'm inclined to agree; although I can read everything with a bit more ease now.

Its definitely better for those of us suffering from things like Pre-Glaucoma conditions.
I've seen some forums that offer a user choice for light or dark schemes.
I have no idea if that's an option here though, as I don't program the software.

I just checked with the developer, and they stated that there is currently no way to set the theme on an individual basis.

So, we will trial this current theme and will eventually switch to whichever theme pulls out ahead in the poll.

Ok, then do tell us about it, whenever any theme supports on individual basis.

I am liking the new look. Definitely easier on the eyes.
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!

I'm not a fan of it, either. Harder for me to read.  But I believe in Democracy and will adapt.

I agree that the people will decide BUT... why is it every time I now enter the site I have this urge to order a Teen Burger and onion rings?

Honkytonk.
I'm missing something in the frame of reference?
"a Teen Burger and onion rings"?

In Canada, a popular burger joint is called A&W. They advertise the "Burger Family", Papa Burger, Mama Burger, Teen Burger, Grampa Burger... you get the picture. Also famous for their onion rings. Their restaurant colours, employee uniforms are brown and orange.

The last A&W Root Beer Stand here in Phoenix still had Car Hops in Roller Skates.
It shut down in the early 80's.

Ours is still going strong but the original style building (pick up or car hop served) closed in the late 70's. Now dine in, drive through... Maybe car hop service ended because newer cars windows/doors couldn't support the tests of food and drink they used to hang off the windows!

White Spot in B.C. used to give you an expandable tray that went from 1 front window to the opposite.
THAT was a much better idea! (Cuz when U slopped stuff it would land on the tray & not your shirt!
I hope they're still doing it.
They refused to come east, to many people (like me) dismay. I can still taste the "Triple O" burger!

In the South we have Sonic's.

You pull up in your car under the overhang, order from your car and the staff bring it out to your car.

I do like the black background color. Easier on my eyes.

Sounds like my old hangout in W. Layfette In.

I remember it from back in '68, before they added the second floor.
