New look? and a bargain

[pat1cp]

Odd

Cant see the bolt either, on PC. To be honest the bright themes are much too bright for my tiny beady little cave-dweller eyes, so I had to switch to see what the fuss was all about. But I couldnt remember what the default looked like before

Oh well, back to dark mode!

Not sure If I am supposed to buy something here... Darrel might need an aquarium heater actually but anyway I also like the new look of the UKAPS site - on MacOS/Safari. Good job on that!

Cheers,
Michael

Aha, you live in a cave…so this explains the obsession with all things mossy. 😉

Do we need to buy that special moss to activate the lightning bolt? I cannot see it.

Hi all,

I do, that one has <"been faulty"> ever since it has owned us.

No "Lightning Bolt" for me either.

cheers Darrel

What does the lightning bolt do anyway? Is it a quick button to ping @Zeus. , the god of lightning and ferts?

Same for me. Ran the dark mode for years now. Nice to hear there's another troglodyte out there.

 

[Hufsa]

Ooh troglodyte mode just turned into mossy troglodyte mode, a dark green instead of black

Hi all,

I've just found I own a <"bargain book">:

Mike Hellweg's <"Culturing Live Foods: A Step by Step Guide for Culturing One's Own Food for the Home Aquarium">.

I'm open to offers

Now "unavailable", so I'm guessing that some-one has invested £2000 in it😉. It is still for sale on <"Amazon.com"> though for a much more realistic $1050.

cheers Darrel

Bizarrely I've just found out that it really is selling for $1000, mentioned at about 4 minutes in the video.

Is there any chance the new dark mode is open to suggestions?

Could the font color on the thread listings be dimmed a little bit closer to how it was before?
My tiny cave-dweller eyestalks etc etc..

I found an old screenshot to compare because I wasnt sure if I was imagining it or not

I decided to have a look on Abebooks and there is one copy available for the bargain price of £585!

Hi Everyone,

Alas, I have nothing witty to add. But I do like this new layout and colour scheme. Having said that, I was previously a 'dark' theme user. I always find it much easier on my eyes. But that's partly because I can't keep up with cleaning my specs! The combination of a white screen and the rainbow effects from greasy lenses takes me back to the psychedelic 60s! Way out, man.

And, last but not least, full marks to Paulo (@LondonDragon) for doing a great job of the 'new look' UKAPS.
