I'm with benny on the dark background religious issue.

Apart from that I have the following usability requests :

- the font size selector on the main page doesn't seem to apply to the forums, or is it just me ?

- on pages listing topics or threads, it is much harder than before to see which ones have new posts in them (bold or plain orange vs different shades of blue)

- in front of each listed thread are two large, static (non-clickable) icons (which are mostly eye-candy to me). In contrast, the incredibly useful "go to first post" is an almost invisible blue arrow that's quite difficult to click on, especially from the tablet... could you please make it bigger ? :-)

PS : about those "eye candy" icons... I can't see any difference between those for "Hot thread with new posts" and "Hot thread with no new posts", is there supposed to be one ?
