Our forum now has a new look :)

Looks like our forum had a sneaky mid-night make over.

Sorry no front face picture.
New one is like this>

Now this is a nightmare? Did I just screw myself? I don't see the option to switch themes anymore?

Old one is in your memory

Pics ~~coming~~ came up!

What is your opinion about the new forum look? :))

(I got FUPed so it's taking too long for the pics)

yeah.
And thanks krishnandu.sarkar for this thread.

Now, I can post my rants over here. :lol:

Great...
I was just thinking to create this thread but i am too lazy.... :lazy:

@Sarath: I hope you have the Before pic of TDF!

Sarath isn't Krishnadu's alter ego. Just saying.

Just saw.. Minor changes. No thinkdigit logo. :-?

This is not final. I will revert back to the old one before i go to sleep.

So did you guys like this new theme...?
I liked it.. Its better now...

Hey why thanks to me??

Thank Sarath instead

I was getting too many adverts BTW. Like way too many. It's not there anymore.

ICO said he is working on mobile theme. This is great news for many mobile users(without Taptalk)
thank you ico !

You can now change the theme from the client-side. There's an option at the bottom-left.

@sarath change theme from bottom drop down menu and take pics from there...!

Guys, keep this only for reporting bugs, discuss about new theme *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/chit-chat/151695-our-forum-now-has-new-look.html

NOTE : Our Admin is testing the new theme and it's Work In Progress.

@kola thats really a great news... Finally i dont have to get page refreshed on opera mini before posting....

Ok doing it. Of all the times, I have to do this when I'm on 256kbps. Life is a dog* when it has to be

BTW, looks like Google caches are becoming too frequent. Google has a cached version of TDF of this "new" look!!!

your last line is correct...
Tomorrow is my math 12th pre board exam and while just checking tdf i found that they have got new theme and now i cant focus on my books...
:evil:

bookss

Also, this thread has 17 replies, but zero views!

PS: It's fun to witness the "work in progress". Just like it's fun to watch the construction of a building when you are not building it.

With a difference that we are still in the building which is being constructed!! :rofl:

@pramudit: Pls go to sleep dude. You need it. New theme is not going to be applied just now. It will be a result of many more nights. As ico said, current theme will be reverted back after sometime, until tomorrow night again.

And all the best for the exam. Now pls GO!!

Google password saver save me

Logging off *prays*

@vyom sleep is no matter of concern...
Exam will start at 10:30 in morning and i sleep daily at 2pm...
All that matters is that i cant focus on my study... Any ideas how to get my mind back to my books...?

Don't worry, as long as you have access to your registered E-mail account you can always reset the password.

And ya, thanx Vyom for wishing me luck...

Log off. Or ask a Green to ban you temporarily if you can't.

pramudit said:

No idea. All I know is that zabardasti padhne ka koi faida nahi.
So just chill.... and leave the rest on luck..

Update: F**king ads are showing, just like in the pic posted by sarath.

Vyom, Reporting live, from TDF experiment-ground!

F*** IRC! A person who himself dissapeared from there, can't be a role model for others.

Lol come on I've told you so already. Will be back on Friday anyway.

shift to TDF v6b.

TDF v6a is going to see a lot of adverts.

Nice work ico. One suggestion- the icon showing online/offline below avatar is confusing. At first glance I thought it to be rep icon.

Previous icon was better. Also a "+" symbol for rep would be more clear especially to newbies.

One query which was in my mind from ages. Why does formatting shortcuts (ctr+B/I/U) don't work with chrome?

dashing.sujay said:

May be because Opera and Firefox are better browsers than Chrome.

Excellent question. Waiting for the answer myself.
Edit: lol answer! :lol:

Well then how about other forums? TDF not optimised for chrome?

dashing.sujay said:

Issue with Chrome. Not with TDF.

Final gud nite buddies...
Its my bed time... Revised as much i can... :tired:

will be Hoping to find something good on opening TDF in the morning...

And all the best ICO...

ico said:

I guess so because in the initial days of chrome I used to find its incompatibilty with a lot of sites. Most of them are addressed except TDF. Also I believe TDF vBulletin version has got nothing to do with it?

IDK if this is only with me, but the loading time in TDF has significantlly improved after applying 6b.

^yes on mobile also.

Seriously, it is at least 100% times faster! :hyper:

Damn! Got hit by adverts so much. Changed to 6b now. Hope the ads stay away.

Sarath said:

I've got a fix now.

If you are a non-logged in "Guest" browsing the forum, you will get adverts in v6a. And the moment you sign in, you'll still be using v6a, but less adverts. :mrgreen:

omg everything is soo bright im wearing shadez

switching back to the old one for the time being. 80% of the work is done.

^Oh wow, was refreshing tbh

Eh...new look is sweet but what is the difference between 6a and 6b ?

6b has less bugs...

pramudit said:

bookss

mine too, same one today lol

Good morning Ico. So did you really wake up all night for the theme? Can't wait to log in from a desktop!

yes..

J

excellent stuff.

ico Awesome man

Just like it. When I lgged in I though WTF but now its awesome

edit : I like the v6b more

edit 2: whenever I use b theme this is missing-
*i.imgur.com/At9Oc.jpg

@TDF theme: change is constant & it is beautiful too!

new theme is nice I like it. I love changes,new things. :grin:

Background in posts is good as it has black text but threads view(sections) it is too bright. better change colors for links from that bright blue to some thing dimmer. so it is not so bright and easily readible

R

I like the new theme! Can someone suggest something so that I can style the theme according to my wishes! ( I like darker themes ).I know about greasemonkey but I am using opera

. Thanks!!

Also where is the reputation button.
The new online/offline button is little confusing..

wow the forum is soo fast now....great work ICO

There is no reputation button in chit-chat section.AFAIK

sujoyp said:

Yeah I forgot to mention that. The forum has indeed become really fast. Thanks ICO. Can you just elaborate on the changes you made to make it go superfast

That light blue color could have been better, it kind of looks odd and hurts eyes.

Only comment on new theme: its too bright. Do something with that.

well, some claim the current one is too dull.

If I switch to Kirsch, then Kirsch is too too too bright.

The test theme was midway, it was again bright. But I'll make it greyish if that's an issue.

Loads much faster now.

@ico What technical changes made forum so fast?

What does giving reputation do...?

Still changing it. Give an Epilepsy warning. Bright to dark to bright :))

I'll work on making this thing darker. Anyways, this style is under a 15-day trial.

Brighter ones hurt the eyes. Especially us forum member who spend a lot of time here.

I would request for a darker one too. Not the DarthVader Evil dark, just a shade darker

Sticking to the current one. I hope it's fine now.

My guess is that this theme is better optimised. Hence faster.

Non-bloated code actually.

Could share some knowledge like how much change in code you had to do

RahulB said:

Not much. But experimenting again and again is time consuming.

I have already shared what you are asking in a Mod Zone post (rant) of mine.

Make the whole theme a bit darker. Having problem in looking into the screen for long time or is it just me? :unsure:

@ico in FAQ part your post still shows cpu buying guide for 2011 Q4...
Please update it with the new 2012 Q1 thread....

^^ thanks.

RahulB said:

Opera has a built-in CSS applier. Make your own CSS and apply it.

well, you'll have to tweak your monitor's brightness this time.

my monitor is just too bright :-(

set at 10 currently! was 25 with previous theme!!

G

nice work ico

i like the elegant color of buttons quote,post reply,etc on this bg

J

holi ****....forum is so fast now.

ico please if you can make it darker. :-(

or why dont you give the option of previous theme in the list below?

Jaskanwar Singh said:

Thanks for supporting dark themes.

My apologies ico. But I really didn't like the new theme. It's way too bright.
Green (online/offline) indicators are hard to spot in that tiny star. Quote button is white colour Non-Bold and on light blue buttons.

Granted it maybe a little fast, but it will be the old v5 for me, until it's changed.

Again sorry, for this just didn't do it for me.

Jaskanwar Singh said:

You have the option. Just select v5 in Quick Style Chooser below this page!

EDIT: It's a MAYHEM! I can't choose v5 now!! :'(

Something looks wrong. Bars and lines etc.. all went white everywhere except text and buttons.

frequent Database errors and remote server errors.

All I need is the mobile theme..

switch to 6b

Update : colors are back again.

@sygeek ok switching.

The main website is also getting updated.

And those guys are doing something.

At the moment they have reverted a database taken around 7pm. So, many posts are gone.

sygeek said:

ico said it'll take time but he'll give a mobile theme.

Switched to 6b , hope its stable till i sleep.

ico said:

yeah i noticed , all posts gone.
Also i created a thread meanwhile in indie game section, lost :-(

.

ico said:

Ah! Saw that... :neutral:

Woke up today to find out many posts are missing.

Anyway, situation seems to be under control now.
@ico: Any idea, if the up-gradation of main site is complete or still under construction? So that we can refrain ourselves from posting, or to take a backup of our posts for sometime, in case something goes wrong again.

Edit: Just read one of your other thread mentioning the disclaimer. I am guessing I will try to take a backup of posts for a few days, until things seem to cool off.

Thanks will do that

IIRC, this is a very old theme, back in those days TDF has this very same theme. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Kirsch theme? This is not Kirsch though the icons are somewhat similar.

^^May i find any image (picture) of kirsch theme. Just curious.

And tell me what is new version , 6a or 6b??

Icons are that of Kirsch.

Brcause I can't upload any icons.

What is better v6a or 6b ??

RED????

Why?

Please get rid of the red!! Blue was much better.

Though ,Not looking bad.

red is too flashy imo...the previous one was better

G

hey man wassup with the forum..

red is too flashy imo...the previous one was better

Stop fingering the font color

Whats going on...cant post in one go, many threads giving errors, red color looks bad...Buggy buggy

Thanks for changing it back

shall be fixed now. I was sleeping.

Sorry for the invconvenience caused.
