what an eyesore!
So I come back after you do maintenance, and I noticed a problem. I thought I'd leave it a few days, but it's still here...
The problem is there's a senile dog or cat or something in your server room, and it has bladder problems in its old age. I guess it must be sleeping on the top of the server and leaking it's foul ichor through the vents, soaking into the posts and making them be pee yellow.
When are you putting a diaper on it? So the pee stains on the posts go away? It's disgusting.

I think the animal is in your room, not BF's. At any rate, you could stand to gain some decorum and manners. Play nice.
If you missed it, we are using a different vBulletin version, things are different now, and the issue has been mentioned by many BF users already. It's not yellow for everyone.
Instead of making such statements, you might try mentioning how you view BF, browser/OS/device and other things and it would help the owners figure it out.
And please have more patience, moving to a different forums version is not easy, and really a chore when you have as many thousands of members with so many ways to view BF.
Everyone is working to help make this transition work out well. Just try and remember how it was when we did this the last time (with Tom Stormcrowe at the helm).
Thank you, Steven

Chrome on a windows PC. The most normal way possible of looking at this website.
I have to wonder what wizard magic is involved if not everyone is getting the pee stained posts.

On a side note, I'm also running Chrome on Windows 10 and find the new scheme a bit of an eye strain. When it gets really bad, I switch over to Firefox with the "Dark Background and Light Text" extension
. (I also have Edge and Vivaldi that sees occasional use as well)

There is only one style in standard and mobile as far as I can see in IE 11, that seems to be the same for all.

See above ^^^post^^^.The 'Bike Forums' standard style has a yellowish tint on Chrome for Windows 10, changing it to 'Default' makes the yellow go away (for me).

I can only switch between Mobile, or this yellow background. Using Windows 10 w/ Chrome (I believe it was the same in Windows 7)

If the yellow is so irksome or vexing to so many, why is it around?
I've never even seen it, won't go 10 mi. near Chrome anyhow.
Or 10.

I won't touch IE with a ten foot pole, and 10 isn't so bad. I'm making the switch at home to keep up with security updates. I imagine it is some sort of setting, somewhere
