    Just found this myself...fantastic!

        How do you get the Theme up? Is it an Option?

        I don't know because i ain't that good at computers.

          Scroll to the very bottom of this page. You'll see a drop-down list in the bottom left. Choose "beige-brown". That's really it.

            I think Prussian Blue/Ice Blue would be nice...

                Just spotted the new logo, top left. Looks good, though I would reduce the size of 'Owners Club' and bring the lines of text together to meet in the middle. Having the badging at the top and the text at the bottom looks a bit like they don't like each other.

                  You don't miss much, do you Steve

                  I've brought them together now, and changed the font style a little on the Owners Club lettering. As much as possible, I've tried to recreate the look of the bootlid badges.

                    You've done a good job with that, looks great.

                    BTW is the white lettering the same font as 'Vanden Plas' badging? What are the names of the fonts?

                      I've renamed the 'test' style to "Bitter Chocolate".

                      New styles available - Chocolate Lime and Prussian Blue.

                      Font is Microgramma Bold Extended for the "Maestro & Montego" part, and I've used Brush Stroke for the "Owners Club" lettering.

                        LOL @ Chocolate Lime.

                        Tissues @ the ready for Prussian Blue! Wow!

                        Excellent work, Chris. Cheers for the fonts as well. Will be handy for making graphics in the future.

                          For some reason these simple asthetic changes make a huge difference to how professional the forum looks. I realise there's been a lot more work than just new skins, but it's amazing what a difference it makes. Either that or the novelty of the previous style had just simply wore off me.
