What'sBevvers,
Over the coming weeks the staff are going to attempt to put together some BBL team specific skins for the board. If you're looking through your profile you might come across some examples at various stages of completion!
At the moment the only one that's up is the Rocks theme. I'm not sure if i'm happy with it yet though i'm content that it's on the right track.
Feedback, both positive and negative, is welcomed.
Feel free to offer suggestions on other improvements we can make to the site. |

Here's a suggestion
When you click on a thread I think it's better if it automatically takes you to the latest page of the thread rather than page 1 each time
Most threads should become current and posters replying to each other etc so would be taking them to the right place most of the time
Those posters new to the thread can always go back to page one if they want to catch up
The busier a forum is the more useful defaulting to final page is and this one seems to be fairly busy at the moment

The old forum took you there by default, but pressing the NEW button is hardly a hardship. |

What Mike said.
If you hit NEW it'll take you to the latest posts. If you hit the page number it'll take you to the page requested. If you hit the thread title it'll take you to page 1.
There's no admin option to allow for defaulting to the latest page.

I've put up a Riders theme for folk to try. As you can imagine I won't be using it very much so your feedback will be useful.

You can switch to the desktop site on your mobile. It's still reasonably easy to use (depends what sort of phone you have, of course).

Not sure about it myself yet - I had to tweak the Rocks one a few times before I was content.
Let me know what you think might be a good change and I can look at it.

I'll take a look at it tonight (that means tomorrow, most likely). I think having the threads black with red/white writing might work better?

Or... take a look at the rocks theme. A variation on that might work. White messages with black and red elements?

I've put an Eagles theme up. Pretty basic black and white effort. Feedback appreciated.

Liking the new Eagles theme, although having the text and hyperlinks the same colour can be confusing - I'd agree with isthaturinal about adding the teams' logos to the design in some way, too.
Nice work on putting the themes together!
