new theme for the website

[Josh]

some of you caught a glimpse of the new theme seen here: https://site84125-fe515w.scloudsite101.com/

There’s a toggle on the top left for light/dark mode. I know there’s a little bit of tweaking to be done to get the forum to look right.

My goal was to freshen up the look, make the front page more inviting and informative to the general public, and also try to make member traffic easier too.

Give me some feedback and by all means if you want to take over/start from scratch, please do.

This is a good time to ask for small or large things specific to the use/feel/functionality of the website and forum.

Fancy! Sleek. Modern. Looks good in dark mode.

Any chance from the coding side of things that photos will upload easier? (Sometimes when uploading four jpegs, it only uploads one or two on the current website format.)

good question!

not so much a code thing (unless i look at ways to break up how files are uploaded) but more of a server capacity thing…

I did a test run – https://site84125-fe515w.scloudsite101.com/forum/topic/test-2/#post-67325

first batch of pics was ~25mb (+6mb each) which is huge. it did crap out on the last one. 4 of about 4MB worked quickly and flawlessly though.

please do kick the tires and recreate an upload you had in the past that barfed.
