I think it would be interesting to see some more themes. I don't know if how flexible customization is on the board, but I may be willing to whip something up. Any guidelines?

At the moment, Feld0 is working on a theme for this place, to replace the default IP.Board theme. There's also an option of a My Little Pony theme, which you can change to at the bottom of the page.

On the topic of creating more themes, I think I remember Feld0 saying that he'd be prepared to give other shows/games their own themes if they had a large fanbase here, if there any members were prepared to create a new theme/banner, but don't quote me on that.

The idea has come up before, and I've considered it, but the problem I have with allowing users to create banners is that someone may, well, not be a brilliant 'shopper and be very offended when I say their banner isn't good enough to use.

That new theme hasn't actually started development yet, and it will be outsourced to a professional designer when it does. The MLP "theme" isn't really a whole theme - it's only an alternate "Wii U Ponies" banner.

I did say that I'm prepared to let other fandoms with a significant presence here have their own Wii U Ponies-like banner, but I'm not going to be designing one for them. But again, I'm worried that someone who produces a less-than-good banner may be offended if I tell them it's not good enough.

I'm willing to accept that risk and design a banner.
