New Theme: "Metro"


Recommended Posts

Christopher

Hello all,

 

We've made some minor updates to the forums by introducing a new theme: Metro. The theme follows a flat-styled appearance, much like some modern websites use and is likely named after the similar appearance to the Microsoft trademarked Metro UI theme for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.

 

The theme comes in a total of 10 color variants, from which you can choose from your User Control Panel (UCP, for short). We encourage everyone to take a look and familiarize themselves with the new theme. To help the announcement of the theme, we will be forcing the blue variant of the theme (titled "Metro Blue") for a few days, to allow everyone to get used to the new layout. On Monday, June 16, 2014, we will remove the theme enforcement, which will then allow everyone to freely choose their desired theme.

 

Some other updates are in the work as well, so stay tuned. As always, feel free to post comments or questions directly here.

Update: As promised, theme settings have been transitioned back to normal and no themes are forced upon anyone. The Metro styles are still available for use by anyone who prefers them. Our main style may change in the future, but this can always be overwridden on a per-user basis by navigating to UCP > Board Preferences.
