Forum looks different ?

Options
Is it just me or has the forum got a different look? My page is headed blue and just looks different. I've been trying hard to search this out over the past few days but can't see what has happened. It looks this way on IE, Safari or chrome. I seem to remember reading about this some time ago and that there was a way to change back to the old look but can't find how to do that now. Thank you so much for any help :)

    If you go to user CP http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/usercp.php

    Bottom left is Forum Version Manager, click Manage Version and select Old Version.

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!
  • Thanks so much for your reply. I have followed the link and changed from new to old and saved the changes. But for some reason it still looks the same. It also shows "0 viewing" near all the sub boards titles ie Compers chat---and I have logged out and in again and also restarted my computer again hoping that the changes might take place. Any more advice?

    Oh, I'm sure I just did that and it fixed it - have a look at the manager again and see if it's changed itself back for some reason.
