    Seems to be a common issue LIR, having read some of the comments on the feedback threads, or at least something similar. Lots of people having issues with the whiteness, brightness and problems when scrolling.

    It really isn't user-friendly is it?!

    I can't even use the old one anymore. I have the option but when I click on it nothing happens... much like when I try to access my settings.

    At this rate I might even have to do some work!:rotfl:

    I am seeing the old skin. I'm mildly worried about the new one. When they trialled it it made things like scrolling very difficult ( next to impossible) with my neurological issues...the scrolling with text against the light background made a 'flashing' effect.

    Could you put that on the feedback threads?

    It just might help.

    I did when they trialled it last time. MSE Andrea saw it and acknowledged it IIRC. I have not seen it this time so cannot see how it would impact me with any changes made.

    Go to User CP Settings and Options
    Go to Edit Options
    Scroll to Miscellaneous Options
    Then scroll to Skin Options and select (as in my post above)

    Don't forget to click on SAVE CHANGES right at the bottom.

    Do you have these in the Miscellaneous?:-
    Message editor interface
    Turn skim links on


    If so, the forum skin option is between them.


    Also, it's not the Miscellaneous listed in the Control Panel - you have to go into 'Settings and Options' first, and then into 'Edit Options', and then scroll down to Miscellaneous.

    That is weird! I have those two options but they're right next to each other, nothing in between.

    Am on my tablet now and it's still the old style...love it! Am making the most of it, no doubt it will be changing soon.

    It might be worth logging out and in again, as I believe the powers that be have changed it all back to the normal one again.
