New Skin Coming to Autopia

**Ben@3D** · 12-14-2010, 02:38 PM

Hey Autopians,

We will be introducing a new skin to Autopia in the next day or two.

You can preview it here: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet

The current skin will stay available in the user settings for those that prefer it.

Looks exciting!

I can`t say I like the new layout, when I read I don`t want a 3/4 wide layout, can you please remove the 1/4 margin on the right when you read in the forums?

Cheers,

Greg

Agreed. And it looks terrible when browsing with an iPhone like I`m doing now. It`s actually quite the PITA. The new layout over all is kinda hard on the eyes. Too much eye candy is much worse than just basic functionality.

I`m having a hard time finding where to change back to the old skin. Any help?

I like it. Hated the old look.

there`s actually an arrow on the right side that you can click to hide that margin

Tapatalk FTW on iPhone. I actually prefer this forum on it than using a pc.

I just don`t like that I can`t tell if there`s a new post in a particular subforum or not

If you got to Settings at the top, look for My Settings > My Account > General Settings along the left hand links. Once there, you will see Forum Skin under Miscellaneous Options. You can chose from: Autopia - 4.1, Autopia - 4.0, and vBulletin Default.

Several people have asked already, but the Forum Skin from 2009 is not available as it was designed for vBulletin 3.0 and not compatible.
