I see posts grey on black. That's harder than shit to read.
How do you get posts to be black on white? Or on anything that is easy to read?

My eyes hate white backgrounds. What's wrong with you?

Hopefully your eyes have white backgrounds.

Hi, Tommy. I looked at Mock's settings yesterday when I first read your post. There is nothing in the user control panel nor the Admin CP that allows for changing the background. I know some sites have that available as an option, but Mock does not.

Most sites have a choice when it comes to forum skins, and it's a big problem when you have people accessing sites via desktops and portable devices like phones. Be nice if you could have your IT person update the site, because everything needed should be on the MyBB resource site. If you need some money to pay for that I'd be willing to donate.
Thanks!

That's a generous offer, rothschild and I do appreciate it, but I don't see anything going on with Mock that would indicate more money should be invested. If Mock were a super active site I would certainly get her what was needed. I think this might be the first time in 14 years that I've seen a request for alternate themes, if I'm wrong I hope someone will correct me. Again, thanks a bunch. I like that you care enough to offer.

Alternate themes would be very nice to have, especially for people who have vision issues, and should be a very simple thing to integrate. Could you look into that?

That Mocker hadn't posted in 6 years before that post and hasn't been back since. Are you experiencing an issue with being able to see the board? Is anyone?

If I remember correctly from the members photo gallery, Tommy Tourette would be like 110 years old by now. No wonder why he can't fucking see.

I like to use veranda characters, light blue, size 5, that I manually changed for all my posts) (when I was able use my “desk top”. Now can’t do that so easily on my I- pad. So. . . . . .

Pappy has poor eyesight, but it would be great to have themes for both desktops and portable devices. As far as I know, adding themes is easy to do, but if this is an older version of MyBB that might not be the case. Also be nice if the smilies window could be resized.
If you don't mind I'll take a peek on the MyBB website and see what they have available.

Wow, you still remember that, it was so long ago. And NO!
It was that the “15” minute rule to edit you posts was not working. And you could still “ Edit” your posts
Whenever you wanted, even days later! Which I sometimes did, if I saw an error.

I am, my old eyes hate this theme. I change the size and color so I can proofread before posting.
Old Rollo (TT) is about the only one here that is older than me; frankly, I am surprised he is still alive.

I'm sorry, Pappy, that sucks, I don't want Mock to be a pain in the ass for anyone, not in that manner anyway.
