    For those who did not visit Polycount on this horrid, cursed day;



    The entire forum is swinging back and forth, and changing colours.

    I just used the windows snipping tool. No rotation added. If anybody wants me to do a tutorial I can.

    Seriously loving the theme :D The main landing page is actually really readable that way imho (seriously !)

    It may sound dumb but the slant somewhat helps navigating long thread lists too, as it gives an implicit anchor to each line. Makes it easy to tell how far down the page one is, it's actually pretty cool. But maybe that's because I am viewing this on a vertical monitor....

    How would one control the color of text in posts, and the color of text in the reply box ? 

    NVM, ended up simply applying it to the landing page and a few subforum sections, leaving individual threads as normal. Works great that way :D
