Which Forum Theme Do You Use 2018

Hey guys it's been a while since we had this classic discussion where we all tell people who use Honeybee to fuck themselves so here we go!!!

I use industrial, it has the best text contrast.

Native always, I think it makes the best and most unique visual effect for the forums

I prefer Industrial. Always have. Always will.


The catch is, I use Native, because it's default and I rarely log on nowadays

Drop down box in the bottom left corner of the page. Click it, select "Munch's Oddysee". You're welcome.

I know it's not as strong as Industrial, but it's still one of the best.

I'd use SlogBait's Necrum theme...

...if somebody actually bothered uploading it to FTP to make it work.

Out of the two most popular ones we have today, I prefer the good one, instead of Industrial.

Pilot did enjoy tinkering with his electronics a bit too much from what I remember, I wouldn't be surprised if he faxed himself back into '45 or whatever

Native. Although the background “design” has not translated very well to modern software. Slog Bait once explained to me that it’s because said “design” amounts to single pixel bars piled on top of each other, which creates the infamous seize effect when scrolling. Ingenuity at it’s finest.

Maybe it used to do that shit years ago too. I honestly can’t remember.

My wife uses Honeybee. I don’t know why.

Are you actually trying to make me kms because that theme is horrendous. Industrial is ok but no, Native for life. The real roots of Oddworld.

I use native. I like the honey bee colour scheme but everything insisting on filling the entire width of the screen doesn't really go well with 16:9 aspect ratio.

if you want to feel like you've died and gone to some kind of afterlife then use the vbulletin theme. everything is white. fucks my eyes up proper.

the profiles and shit are fixed on it though. other things aren't.

In my opinion, the blue, AKA "Industrial" theme works the best on modern monitor systems. The dynamic contrast of the theme combined with the intricacy of dark blue tones creates an objectively better and crafted experience tailored to those whom choose to see it.
A better question to those who choose reluctance over action is this:
"Which theme best represents you as the dynamic wavelength of Human Beings?"

This is a classic example of the Locomotive Act in action(or motion).
