I'm going to be the first dissenter - I don't like the colour. It's all a bit grey - like modern jet fighters. Can I customise the colours?

Thats for your efforts James and the successful upgrade (thank goodness it isn’t ‘Tapatalk’). You have matched the display to the colours of my current F3 Tornado build I see!

I can't seem to turn off the ONLINE banner across my avatar. I clicked YES to Hide My Online Presence in my Preferences and logged out and then logged in again but to no avail. Would somebody kindly tell me what I'm doing wrong please.
Cheers

I doubt you are doing anything wrong. It might be only visible to you. I’ll add it to my todo list.

No, I’m afraid Pro silver SE only provides one colour choice, others themes provide more. At the moment we’re keeping the choices simple, but will keep things under review.

I'm sure I'll learn to live with it. I did enlarge the font somewhat as it appeared a bit small on my computer.

Are we stuck with the phpBB logo at the top left hand corner? It's bigger than the name of the site, which is a bit of a shame - and we've lost the UAMF logo itself.

When I first logged in this morning I thought the site had disappeared until I realised it had been changed.

Logo will be dealt with in due course, it needs to be redesigned to fit in with the new theme.

CONGRADULATIONS JAMES !!!!!!!
Looks great and seems to have great functionality.
I experimented in the "black", seems a bit dark so I'll stick with the silver.
I did notice that under black, my little avatar and user name does not appear as it does while under silver. I don't care just thought you should know.
Again, congrats and a big THANK YOU on all you've done and your efforts on making this forum so enjoyable to post and visit, good on you !!!
Thanks,
Allan Buttrick

Thanks for the feedback Allan I'll look into it. We tweak the parent prosilver theme to put the user box on the left hand side of the posts as before and some themes may not like it.

I had to change the colouring of my signature when I went over to "dark mode" as the blue really clashed with the black background. Not a criticism - just explaining in case anyone wondered why I did it!

If you mean top right, then no, that's just one of the style difference. There is just the default "user" icon instead.
