Oops! Sorry, I didn't realize Stu had already switched over to the new style.
That's one reason I don't want to change until I'm forced to. I like to wait till all the bugs and imperfections are worked out.

No wide version yet, Stu. Only the old template has it. And you can't go back unless I disable it.

I've been using it for a week and I really like it, but my graphics team has not responded with any updates yet.

I've updated the forum to version 3.0.12 and now the option to select a preferred forum format is showing.

The Prime Template was for 3.0.12, not 3.0.11, which is why it wasn't there before.

Now you can switch back and forth.

I don't really notice much difference in Prime other than that my widescreen option is gone. Unless there are other features to the upgrade, I am going to stick with the widescreen version on my big screen PC. Nevertheless, the Prime works better on my tablet and laptop and I like it for those devices.

Merry Christmas!

I tried prime last night and was able to switch back to wide. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I don't like it. It seemed to be to harsh on my eyes. :shock:

I'm messing around with things and I found a way to show the style (I guess it's a style and not a template) without having to select it in one's preferences.

Click here to test the Prime style.

I also installed some iPhone/mobile styles.

Click here for Artodia: Mobile TLF

Click here for Artodia Mobile: iPhone (the original color scheme)

I'm looking into if it can automatically switch between a mobile style and a fixed style. I'm sure it can, but I have to figure out how to do it.

Mine ain't broke so I'm not fixing it until I have to...
When do we have to switch over by, or will we just wake up one day and be switched over?

More than likely, one day, it will just be the standard.

Updated the PRIME logo and created a new template called: Prime Modified for TLF.

Anyone want to clean up the logo for me?

I'm pulling the switch late tonight. Anyone who doesn't like it… well, tough cookies. New year, new look.
