    Question New LOTR boards and style set ...

    As most probably noticed, the style set from the new LOTR boards differs from the other ST boards' style set. It does look pretty good and fits rather well with the official CODA LOTR colour theme.

    However, in my user settings I elected to use the standard vBulletin blue-white style set. Why? It's more readable (dark font on light background, better for eye comfort), but more importantly, it's colour theme is rather neutral, which is a definite advantage since I often read the boards at work (bad me!). Hence I get much less peeking over my shoulders "hey, what's that you're reading, looks interesting ... say, it's not very work related, is it?" than with the ST or LOTR colour themes.

    So, where's the problem? Well, somehow, the LOTR board's style set seems to have a higher priority than my own settings, so I can't get the LOTR boards with neutral color theme.
    Am I the only one having this problem? Would there be a way to fix it, Don?

    I "force" the LotR style-set on the LotR forums. I can turn this off and merely make that style-set the default, as opposed to mandatory.

    But wouldn't that make it default for ST boards too? If not, then that'd be really nice if you could, Don .
