Forum themes?

@jegr Done , can I get 3 as well?

The whole idea is that you should post 3 "quality posts" (or, like me 2k5 pure ramble)
But ok, during the forum introduction every reason is valid, so there you go - done.

my post wasn't meant as a collector for upvotes, merely to point out it's hard to find how to give someone - hmm I always consider it a thank you! - for his post and his time. Perhaps an additional text like "upvote/thanks" next to the "^" will do that :)

Yeah, I thought it to be some kind of "jump to top" button at first.
Not obviously the "thanks" action. Make it have an icon.

I notice that on dark themes like Cyborg, the small Reply icon is all-white and unreadable until you mouse-over it.

It's a little more obvious when downvoting is enabled since there are up and down arrows, but we turned off downvoting. I don't know that we can put any text there, though. Not easily, anyhow.

If you can't add text, can you at least change the symbol from the up arrow to something more recognizable, like a ?

That turned out to be easier than expected, how does it look now? :-)

I tried making it larger but it appears to be stuck inside that small space for the moment. If I enlarge the picture it just gets cut off. There is probably some extra CSS trickery to make it work, I'll bug someone else here that is much, much (much much) better with CSS than I am later.
