The blue color and the font make it much harder on my eyes..very harsh. The version on my iphone is also not any where as good as the original version.

Not sure why these changes keep happening, so far I do not see any that are "better" than the original design. I never realized how color can have such an impact...perhaps it doesn't bother all people the way it does me.

I mainly use the forum on the computer and it looks like the option to change the color scheme and layout is gone.

It is. It used to be possible to change it on our profile, but not anymore.

The font is not only too small but sort of floats/seems to be in a vacuum and seems to be trembling. And the whole think, font included is too shiny/bright. It hurts the eyes. At least it hurts mine.

The countour of the logo also hurts the eyes and the purple on the blues looks terrible. Same for the symbol.

"Remember The Hero's Spouse Mission Statement. Love each other, Love your Spouses and Love yourselves. The Unconditionals apply to everyone." this does not real well. Sort of a greyish blue upon greyish blue and the font is too narrow. Larger size and blod may help. But I think a more "round" font is much better than a sharp slidding one.

"Support for Dealing with a Spouse in MLC" this is also almost impossible to be seen.

The buttons look like for a mobile, but are silly/childish on a computer (pretty much like everything these days).

And lets not mention how absurd it all looks when we are posting, the emojis, the "subject" and "message icon", the super difficult colourn scheme, etc.

Please find a way of allowing those of us who want to to revert to the normal way. Or set it for the normal way with an option for mobile.

This mobile-desktop theme is not good at all, Curve Multi Color is perfect for the board. And it seems you have found a way of having curve responsive, so, working for curve, since it pleases users better and can be made responsive seems much more logical.

All these changes are much, much worst than the original design. If the issue the original design responsive on mobiles, find a solution for it rather than change a perfectly good and working design both on mobile and computer.

I just manually changed most of the users on this thread back to curve.

If anyone else wants to change back go to

Profile
Modify
Forum Profile
Look Layout
Then select Forum Theme Curve - Multi Color

Everything then should be fine.

OP, it seems we users no longer have the option to change themes ourselves until that is restored to us.

Could you change mine back to Curve? Thanks!

Edit - Done! - OP


Another edit...OP, did I ask for the wrong thing? I might have...I still have the blue one with Comic Sans. I would like the green version, whatever that's called. Thank you!

Oh...I need the MULTICOLOR one! Oops!

Same here, OP.  No option to do that.
Would you please change mine, too?  Thank you

I am in "Look Layout" but do not see the Theme curve-multi color

I would appreciate if it would be changed back to the original...I had been able to change it before but that seems to have disappeared

OK - I am sorry - I guess you can't do it.

I dont understand what happened because I can change myself and I changed all of yours individually but it does not seem to work.

Let me see what else I can do.

We can't change it. That was the first thing I tried when I saw this new layout. The option no longer shows. And if you changed mine, it also didn't change. I am still with the horrible blue.

You're and administrator. Maybe you have powers to change yourself. If you take a look at the source the code was changed.

These are the only things that seem to have been left on Curve:
