I just noticed that your threads have page jump links at the top but not at the bottom. This is a bit irksome for long threads that have multiple pages. New members like me who want to read through the entire thread have to scroll all the way back to the top in order to move on to the next page. It's not a major inconvenience for short threads, but for anything with many pages it can be.
Just a suggestion.

gregalexThat option is at the bottom of the page too. Just don't go past the shoutbox. (top left corner of screen). If you do happen to scroll or read past the shoutbox then just click on the 'go to top of page option'. Takes you back to the top of the page in half a second !! No need for scrolling at all.

There is no need to scroll back to the top of the page. You can get there by either clicking the "Return to Top of Page" link located just below the shoutbox or by pressing the "Home" key on your keyboard. The navigation bar remains in view at the top of your screen as you scroll down the thread so you can simply click on the "Next" button to advance the page view. |

As noted by LB1 and Steve, the Threadpage Navigation Bar stays at the top left -- as long as any post on that threadpage is still showing. If you scroll completely past the last post so that only the Quick Reply window is showing or scroll into the Shoutbox, the Navigation Bar will disappear. No problem, don't even have to go back to the very top of the page. Just scroll slightly back up so that any part of the very last post appears -- the Navigation Bar instantly re-appears at the top left corner.

Ah ha! I didn't make it to the very bottom of the page, or if I did I didn't notice the blue text against black. You might change that text to white so it's easier to see. Thanks for the tip!

I never saw it either since to no contrast between background and letters but a next / previous cannot be added at bottom rather than go back to top then next / back.

The easiest way to go back to the top seems to be pressing "Alt-D" on the keyboard for me!  |

Looking at the screenshot TSF Admin posted, I can understand how it can be easily missed on some skins. You can select from a couple of skins by going to your Edit Profile and change the Forum Theme in your Settings. The few default options aren't that appetizing, but at least there are some ready options. Personally, I find the anchored threadpage jumpstation a lot easier to work with than having it appear only at the very top or very bottom of the threadpage. First time I saw this elsewhere, it did take a little adjusting because we are all creatures of habit, but the anchored-method is really much faster in the long run. JMO. |

There are only a few options. I had liked the look of the 2,0 style because of darker theme but now using blue which is dull (forum header).

I've figured out how to change the footer text color in the TSF 2.0 theme. Can you see it now?

Looking much better TSF Admin !  Although it looks like all links and text buttons now also highlight in yellow making them virtually impossible to read... Maybe something in between like a medium blue might work better? Something like this: hex 3f92f0

The only problem now is that any link you hover over on the Forum turns to yellow -- I'll need to work on that!

Now hovering over the link turns it a light blue -- better than yellow -- I think I should quit while I'm ahead!

I've only tinkered with the default theme (THE STAMP FORUM 2.0) as it is my personal favorite. The other 3 are pretty much as Jack originally set them up. For those who may not be aware, you can change the theme by editing you profile and selecting the "settings" tab (don't forget to save your preferences before exiting).  |
