Implementing "options" is a bit of work after all. If this is the case I'm currently supporting the black theme cause it's easier on the eyes.
I thought it wouldn't be possible. As an example, if I had a black theme and you had a white theme, my formatting of posts would be a problem for you wouldn't it? I'm referring to theme as in, the entire background of the website is dark, not white.
Let's say I create a post with fancy BBcodes and what not, that would look splendid on my end. I use white fonts because it would look nice on my black themed setup, wouldn't it not be able to show up on your end?
Yup having style options is definitely the right way to go.
Right now the two popular colors are black and dark blue. A third color would be nice, any suggestions?

It'd be fairly simple from a technical standpoint, and the advantage is that once done it would be very easy to expand into many different themes
I don't think there's an option with black post backgrounds - it's just black header bars and a darker grey background
Thanks to some help from paperclip we have already brought back the style chooser! If you haven't seen it yet, its at the top left of the site.
It can be seen at the top left and I've added 5 default colors. I do plan to make more changes too, right now it just changes the "thead" and header. What other changes do you guys suggest?
Also will plan to limit the colors down from 5 to the current 3. Just put the pink up for fun and for the girls haha. Also as you can see im just testing all the different backgrounds for fun.
So let me know what are your favourite colors or new colors to introduce and will give it a go.
I tried changing it to purple using firebug. A dark purple with black theme would look pretty badass. Also, it seems that every second page you click, the theme changes. Im not a fan of the banners at the top. They look a bit tacky. xD But yeah. Dark purple with a dark black background would look cool. :P
maybe a bit more of a browney-brown rather than the current greyish brown? something around #24201d. I like all the options and could see myself using all, the only problem is the banner area
Theme persistence - I tested it on chrome/firefox and it worked fine last night. Those having problems please let us know the browser/settings you are using. Its not supposed to keep alternating colors on different pages so its a bug we're gonna look at fixing.
Theme options - Remember the only reason it was implemented was because people requested it! If you don't like them you don't have to use them and can just be on the original one. (assuming u dont get the bug)
Headers - Justs a temporary thing i put up. Would it be better with just the default plain banner or some other banners? Let me know! Those with firebug can play around with it here
Code:
#header {
background:url(http://URL) repeat-x top left;
height:142px;
}
