Multiple themes

I think there should be at least 2 themes so that people can change whenever they want. First, a simple and smooth one, second, a bit flashy and complicated one.

I'm pretty sure Forumotion doesn't allow users to switch between themes, but that's still a good idea. :P

Well a homepage switcher would be possible, but you would require a couple of coded files to be uploaded to the server wouldn't you? And you can't edit root forumotion files like you can with self hosted forums.

That would be cool!
I like the idea!

Forumotion does not allow this feature. Sorry to disappoint you.
Can I lock this now?

Well, I think vBulletin can have multiple themes. Except you have to pay.
phpBB can do it, and phpBB is free.

Or we could make 2 homepages. Each the exact same, but with different images. Then have a link back and forth to the others at the bottom of that one. Easy enough. We could do it the complicated way though. :p

Yes, it can. You have to pay for vB and a server to host it on.

We have had numerous topics on this before, and mostly always rejected. I believe it is to late to change to a new forum system, just yet.

Well I think we could consider the homepage idea in the near future, if we did it your way. Wouldn't take long to edit the current one.

I don't think you could make two themes at once.
Good idea anyways!

We can make them, that is actually what we are working on now( ;) ), we just can't add them.
