Hello ladies and gents.

You might have noticed that we got a new looking theme, otherwise you need a new pair of eyes Wink

The new skin is light (DUH), a combination of white, grey and blue were used to produce the result you're seeing. The old dark skin was nice indeed, but everything has an expiration date. The new skin should work and function properly on all sort of devices: computers, smartphones, tablets, etc.

I won't say that the new skin will function perfectly on smartphones. Even though I've spent hours trying to make the skin work and look good on all smartphones, eventually, it's an impossible task. So, if you're the type of a user who uses smartphone to view DA more than you uses your computer or your tablet then you'll have to live with a few things: for instance, the logo + about us might look over-lapping one another, and you might have some issues with the chatbox display button - there is no playing around those, we can't fix these - at least, not now.

The menu has been removed from right-side widgets and were placed beneath the logo. They're clickable paragraphs with some cool on-hover effects. Also, we added a bunch of basic links to our footer. I realize that some of you might not be fans of white themes, however, we've been using dark themes for years now, it's time for a change. We'll still be pocking around the colors a bit and change their gradients to be more suitable and comfortable to look at. Plus, we removed the last 24 hour online users, it interfered with the template a bit. From now on you'll only see the current online users instead.

Also, all custom ranks has been deleted. If you've purchased a custom rank then simply request a new one in the shops forum and link your old purchase topic in the new one to get it for free!
(We deleted all custom ranks, all those whom had a custom rank will now have 'Slifer Red' default rank until they get their rank updated!)

If there is any particular issue you're facing with our skin then please do post below and try to explain your problem thoroughly.

~cheers Wink

It looks good, that's good enough reason to not change a thing Wink

EDIT:

Update: Added a signature length limit. Now your signature cannot be higher than 425px. Anything past that limit won't show.

Well for some reason my previous message sent a BLANK POST.


Anyway, like I said. It's good, but I'd like to see a theme toggle of sorts. The ability to switch to a "night mode" or "theater mode", which would switch the site to a darker color scheme. Bright colors can be hard on the eyes, especially at night or in dark environments. I'm sure a lot of people would enjoy that option.
