    Sorry if this isn't an okay thing to suggest, but I just wish the forum background was a solid color. The topics and forum sections are hard to read. If there's a way to change it myself I will, but I've had several friends mention to me that they don't come here simply because of that.

    Scrolling to the bottom of the page, it should be on one of the sides. I couldn't say for certain, I'm on mobile. It'll also probably be in the forum settings.

    I've tried all the themes.
    I prefer the default Everypony Network Spring.

    But damn, that was one popular theme!
    If I'd known that at the time, I'd have tried to salvage what I could of it - but as it happens I don't even have a picture, I can scarcely recall what it was like :(

    That background is the current 'Everypony Default Background' setting.

    I think that's cause you're a mod, you can see the disabled ones and that's not the original Ponyville. The one you're seeing is the remake that never was finished. The original was lost somehow.

    The original was lost because it was replaced by the winter one, IIRC. It was intended to be changed back, but it got lost somewhere. Probably overwritten. Ponyville and Cloudsdale were removed anyway, for some reason. Cloudsdale was by far the most popular theme.

    Overwritten is probably correct. Cloudsdale is actually still in tact, for the most part. It got beat about over theme changes so it looks a little wonky, but it still exists. It would need to be fixed up though to be useable.

    Well, the only problems Cloudsdale has right now, at least when I last used it, was slightly out of place avatars, and no sig height limits. (Which is why I liked it a lot)

    But it could probably do with a few tune-ups, though.

    Twilight theme is best theme, mainly because it's easy on the eye at night.

    I didn't say I didn't like it, just that I can't read the forum topics because of it.
    Although that does detract from the likability.
    The Twilight Sparkle one was hard to read too (and I loved that one), but thankfully this Pinkie Pie one works.
