Another person's theme's , or the way he looks at pages, isn't visible to you, just to him. However, you should be able to view other people's themes by searching from the drop down menu on the theme-making  page, except that search feature dowsn't seem to be functional.

 actually, you SHOULD be able to see other people's themes when you visit their homepage. but it isn't working yet :( it is really frustrating when this stuff works in the development environment, but doesn't work when pushed to the site. we'll get it working...

Thanks!

Woot! A Black, red and purple theme!

Thanks erik, this is great, now I just have to design a logo as the chess.com one looks a little... odd with a black background.

Sometimes its worth having a backup of the site with which to play around with things and that you can host for testing for your trusted buddies, before going live.


 yep :) we have that.

Bad news guys. I think we're going to have to delete everyones custom css files that have been created thus far. I apologize for any time wasted on this. :(

 

We're working on some fixes and it requires a bit of an overhaul on the file naming convention.

Themes eh?  Nice idea.  I really like the extra large board - my eyesight isn't what it used to be! Laughing

It would be nice if the analysis board could be bigger as well...Smile

I have fixed the search feature (i think) so you should be able to choose other members themes now.
