Also bug report: Since the new theme was installed, the drop down selector on the front page portal no longer saves your theme settings. It chooses the new theme if you confirm, but when closing/re-opening Opera, it reverts back to the default theme. So far it appears to work fine if you change the theme via Profile->Layout preferences, though.
It has always been that way.

If you change the theme from the drop-down on the front page, it only changes the theme for the current session. To change your theme permanently, you need to go to Profile > Look and Layout Preferences.

If it's possible, I think the front-page menu should be a permanent option.

Aha that makes sense, I would usually change a theme via the home page but it would only be temporary, though I still like v5 the best.

Also I like Stefan Bauwen's idea of adding a blue transparent layer on top of the calcs, perhaps 20% opacity would look nice?

Such layer would be nice, but in order to be realistic, the screens of the three color calcs should remain as they are right now. After all, when using those calcs in a dark room, you can still see the screen as fine (if not better) as in a lighted room. :P

I tried this in GIMP and it looks pretty good. :P This is just a recolor of the calc part with color screens kept as is.

Also with blue filled TI-Boy logo (prolly should have used a lighter blue) :


Anyway those changes are very nice, it's always good to bring some renewal to the site. ;)

By the way, what program is the TI-89 Titanium (the leftmost calculator on the right side) running?
Due to dissatisfaction, I will be inactive on Omnimaga until further notice. (?? THP hasn't been much success and there's also the CE. I might possibly be here for a while.)
If you want to implore me to come back, or otherwise contact me, I can be found on GitHub (bluebear94), Twitter (@melranosF_), Reddit (/u/Fluffy8x), or e-mail (if you know my address). As a last resort, send me a PM on Cemetech (bluebear94) or join Touhou Prono (don't be fooled by the name). I've also enabled notifications for PMs on Omnimaga, but I don't advise using that since I might be banned.

I agree Streetwalker. :) I would make the TI-Boy icon slightly less violet, though, to match the banner colors better.

And I think the 89T program is Zelda: Links Awakening demo (the 2003 demo that somebody revived a few years ago)

Actually I took the TI-Boy blue from the Omni logo. :P
I guess this is better now :


And how it looks like on the new posts page :

Tiny display bugs on the new theme:

1) In the reply page, Additional Options no longer show up by default. Omni used to be like that before and people couldn't find the upload form, so it might be a good idea to fix that.

2) A small horizontal line appears above moderator options at the bottom of post pages:

i applied a blur to all the gradients to smooth things out, and that extra line must have gotten added somehow.
* shmibs will look through for it.

also, i have no idea where to look to make additional options display by default. do you remember where that was changed?

I think it's in Admin->Theme and layout settings->Omnimaga v6->Then in the options list there, there should be something saying "Enable collapsible additional post options:".

Do you mean it's now the default theme? (As in Omnimaga6 being renamed to the current default theme folder)

Oh ok thanks for that :)

Do you also plan to use  http://img.ourl.ca/omnimagabanner2013_blue_calcs2-1.png for the banner or will you stick to the current one?
