The default style was just changed. If you prefer the old default, click on "Xenforo" at the bottom left of the page and choose Flexile Dark Blue (Or green, whatever you prefer).
Feedback wanted on the forum structure!

Ouch, I thought existing users would keep the style they had! I kept mine somehow even though I changed the default. Sorry about that.

Yep, the Xenforo style does have its advantages.
Someone (I think Lord Snot?) asked somewhere about changing a colour in the "Xenforo modified style", but now I can't find that post again .... Anyway, I'm happy to do that since that style is one that I've been tinkering with quite a lot, and I'm not yet happy with it at all.

Because these threads have a tendency to only point out the bad, can I say I really like the 'like' feature, the fact that post counts aren't displayed, the alerts and how the forum generally looks very modern and sophisticated.
I love it except for the mint green, which is actually a very pleasant colour but is a bit too light for the green and orange font colours. It's a little hard to read.

Yes, it's been offline all day, which is why I haven't gotten around to install more styles and some other things. A bit worrying, but hopefully it will be back pretty soon. It's a holiday here in the UK today (which is where they're based), so they may not be back until tomorrow or later.

I like that when I click on a thread it goes to the first unread post.
I like that the administrator is not a corporation.
I like that naughty words aren't censored.
I like that all the cool people are here.
I like that we all get along.
I like swimming pools.
I like beer.

Maybe they need to re-purchase their domain name, since it seems to be "parked". We had that happen at another board I was on once. Once they paid the yearly fee, all was well again. Didn't stop most people from panicking though...lol
Thanks IS, it looks great! I actually like the dark theme quite a bit, but I think for the default a bright cheery theme will serve you well.
Sorry if these questions have been answered but I couldnt see one so far.
1 - Is it possible to have certain sections of the forum where only members can see it. For example, the health/relationships sections.
2 - Is the forum just for veg*ns, or is it for aspiring veg*ns too? I am guessing not but thought I'd check.
3 - The science bit sounds weird to me. I'm not sure we'd get enough threads to warrant a whole forum section for natural sciences , applied sciences etc. Why cant we just have one for "Sciencey stuff" and "Techy stuff"? Clearly I'm not one to ask for forum names....

What about aspiring vegetarians? Ie someone who wants to kick fish but hasnt done so yet. As far as I can see in the rules, being plain old vegetarian is fine. But yeah I just re-read IS post and it seems it's more vegan geared. Maybe that could be clearer in the rules. I'd hate if a newbie got mauled for saying how nice ice cream was or something haha.

Yes, good idea. I will keep that in mind.
It's for vegetarians of all flavours, but I may consider opening up some sections to aspiring vegetarians. Fun fact: Originally, I had intended the board to be geared towards veteran veg*ns and the domain name was going to be veteranveggies.com
Noted, but since I'm providing a kind of "public service" I feel that I can't go by only what is popular and give people only what they want, but also what is good for them and educational. It's a bit like public broadcasting such as the BBC, NPR or Scandinavian TV channels like NRK, DR, SVT. If you feel that is elitist, you're absolutely correct, I'm an elitist and proud of it

I like the idea of certain sections only being visible to members only, especially the health and relationship forums.
