Finity theme now default on the forums

[Steven P. 14,367]

After extensive testing/feedback and a few small changes here and there, we feel that the Finity theme can now be made the default forum theme for guests and new members.

The previous "Shift" theme remains a choice in the theme selector (bottom left of this page) but guests will be forced into this new look for Neowins forums!

As ever, we look forward to feedback and bug reports and we hope you enjoy this new look if you haven't already selected it since it became an option late last year.

Saweet :D

Does that mean there is new colours of the Finity theme in the works now? I miss my green Neowin lol

People may need to do a hard refresh (CTRL + F5) to see the news feeds dropdown (next to Hide Activity button) we are aware of IE problems with it and hopefully that'll be fixed later today!

Second site that I frequent to update the default forum skin today.

I must say, it is a refresher from the last theme......not a huge change but enough to stand out upon a page refresh, and enough to make a difference.

Love it.

One thing though, I requested having the 'scroll to bottom' feature on the iPhone version, I hope it gets implemented.

I like the new theme, just trying to find where some of the options have been moved to.

[houlty 2]

its better, but how do you get to advanced search???

[Steven P. 14,367]

the link is in the Control Panel drop down and then you can select advance search :)

[Corris 42]

I didn't even realise it wasn't the default, chose it as the theme and never looked back, lol.

I was just about to post how awesome the new theme was when the old Shift theme popped up in the post reply screen. What gives??

EDIT: Whoops! The Shift theme was activated some how.. Anyhow it is back to normal.

The new theme is very refreshing and looks very bold. Increasing the space for "Latest Forum Activity" is awesome!

There are other themes available ? Oh, thanks. :blush:
