I have clicked through a few themes and find most of them abysmal. I would propose removing some so people don't have to click through all to find out which one is okay.
I personally find ProSilver Dark quite good, whereas "Carbon" seems completely broken...

While I congratulate you on starting this poll, I cannot agree with your proposal.
What one person finds nice, another person will undoubtedly not.
In other words, one person's "okay" is another person's trash.

I think it's good of the Admins to allow us this much liberty of choice.
There's a board theme & colour scheme for all tastes and preferences ;)

To answer the poll though: LUCID LIME FTW! 8-)
P.s- If you're looking to get a lot of votes on the poll, I suggest changing the title of this thread to something like "WHAT BOARD THEME DO YOU USE? VOTE ON THE POLL!"

Ah right, Lucid Lime is the standard as far as I remember.
Carbon and ultra_light are completely broken, while ne-blackgreen looks rather unpolished.

So other than that I only find Blackboard, ProSilver (Dark) and pycode attractive - simplicity is okay, but I see no need to have the same theme in seven different colors with one of them changing anything else (like a dark background).

I mean, you still have the option to choose your favorite. I'm not sure why any of them should be removed. It's not like we are forcing people to go with a specific theme. Just choose the one you like and leave it at that.

And as far as my favorites go:. I like the Lucid Lime theme, but the theme has issues rendering on mobile. I also think the ProSilver Dark is one of the best themes I've seen next to Lucid Lime. I am currently rocking the ProSilver Dark theme myself because it is more compatable with mobile.

If anyone removes Lucid Lime I'll scream. I'm pondering, isn't there a better way to do this?
There's LOTS of Board Themes, which I believe it's a good thing. The real problem here is how hard it is to navigate and select through them.

What the fuck is Simplicity? What the fuck is Simplicity Aqua,how is it different from Simplicity Blue? Most people won't be able to tell from these really simplistic names.

Isn't there a way to add a sort of pallete besides the name? Or isn't there a sort of way to add images in the menu? So we can see what the font will look like with that theme?
