Okay folks, here's how it goes.

I've started work on a version of FS Orange for the new forums, and as this is all new and shiny and stuffs, I'm letting you play with it. I am well aware that it is currently well in Alpha stage, and as a result the colours are not totally synchronized across each area of the forum, there are areas that still reflect the original colouring, etc.

It is, however, a start, and may help some of you who don't want a blinding white skin. I'm open to critique or comments, but as already noted, there are currently bound to be errors of all sorts. Each time I update the skin properly I shall post here to let you know.

Anyways, if you wish to use the new skin, on any page on the forum, go to the bottom left of your screen, and choose 'change theme'. Orange Mk3 should now be selectable.

To do:

Change post text colour to white
Synchronize colours across board
Change board image (where it currently says IPS Community)
Change 'loading' bar colour
Change text colour of 'edit, report' text to white
Change colour of 'Go to first unread post' button
Change colour of 'save changes, and 'use full editor' quick edit bar
Change colour of Topic title text
Change colour of 'Reply to this post' text
Change colour of 'more reply options' button
Fix 'Community Forum Software by IP Board 3.2.0' shadow mishap
Change colour of links when hovered over from blue to ?
Change 'Change theme' pop-up box colour (currently creates invisible text unless hovered over)
Entire 'New Content' page needs overhaul
Fix Quotes content being white.

The text are way TOO dark against the background, almost invisible.

See list of things to be fixed, it's the very first thing on there. Nearly everything here has been created using a basic set of defaults provided by IPB, as a result it tends to miss out the ability to edit a lot of things. Including text colour...

EDIT: Fix'd, crossed off list.

I don't know if this is included in the checklist, because I'm kinda dense ATM.

I think I'll hang on to the whiteness a bit longer til more progress is made
