Not sure how much is going to change over the next few days but I believe there are some issues of functionality with the theme switching over
NOTE: It may be that these are all currently being changed as I write this. It may be that I've posted this far, far too early and that I was too impatient on this. But at the very least, I would have this brought to attention, on the chance that they are not change - after all, a thread can't hurt
a.) will be what it used to be
b.) will be what it is now
c.) will be a suggestion on how to make it better
1.) Stickied Threads
a.) On the old forums, stickied threads would get there own section with a dark and distinct backdrop behind the title
b.) Now they are indistinguishable from other threads save for the small thumbtack to the right
c.) Return everything in a
2.) "Marked as Read"
a.) Threads and subforums that were read were blatantly obvious because they were bolded and unbolded with the icon at the left changing from a dulled out dirt block to a fully colored dirt block
b.) The icon now changes between Green - Purple (this may be possible to just memorize, but maybe there are stronger alternatives) and threads are all bolded, so there is no difference if something is marked as read save for an extremely small blue bulletin point to the left of individual threads
c.) Make thread names unbolded so that the ones unread can be bolded. The bubble doesn't matter so long as that functionality returns. The icon could change from gray to any color or something very obvious like red to green (stop and go) rather than two ambiguous colors
3.) Alerts
a.) Alerts used to have a red number to indicate how many notifications you had and to "alert" you to them
b.) The alerts now become gold in their backdrop and have an asterik to indicate that you have notifications, but not how many
c.) Give a red number indicator instead of a gold asterik
