    For the past 2 days I made the new current theme thanks to the feedback I've received during the beta stage so thank you to those who helped me!
    Let's get this started shall we?
    I made 4 more themes to go along with the current default theme so that you can have more freedom to choose from than just one.

    Here they are:
    Refuge
    [​IMG]
    Reviewer
    [​IMG]
    Revival
    [​IMG]
    Utopia
    [​IMG]
    Daybreak
    (WIP, I had to stop as I've been up 20+ hours getting the other themes ready and was falling a sleep working on it)
    [​IMG]

    To change the theme scroll down to the bottom of the page and on the left side you should see the name of the current theme, click it and you can now select a theme.

    Enjoy!!
    Post below which one you're going to use! :)
    I'm off to bed...

    Blue just happens to be my favorite color, so I'll be sticking with the default theme.

    The new layout looks pretty slick. Nice going, Tater. :)

    I really like the green theme.
    If I set my theme for Review, will the theme still change for Halloween and such occasions?

    Awesome, it looks really swell.

    I think that changing font colour is a really nice touch which I was not expecting!

    Thanks!

    All theme-names are nods to past incarnations, with the exception of Daybreak. That'll be a JDO/JAF original. Refuge's color scheme, however, wasn't what JDR actually had, not that I recall at least. But since JDO already uses blue, makes it kind of silly to make another blue scheme based on current default (JAF).

    ...we need another mascot so we can use it for the blue-based theme. lol

    I'm going to explain some background about these themes for anyone who is interested.

    JustDubs Refuge's logo was red but the forums were almost identical to JD's Forums so I took the red and designed the forum around the logo's color scheme.
    Reviewer is a nod to JustDubs Reviews (One of the original Just Anime Network sites.) which had Midori as a mascot there only for a limited time then she was lost forever till Jay and I found her again. The site was White and Green.
    Revival is a nod to JustDubs Forums it was made for veterans in mind. I did make it %95 like the original forums but I had to keep it fresh and modern so that design was scrapped. Some vets may notice a few new features that resemble JD Forums, like those '+' symbols for marking friends. :)
    Utopia is a nod to Dubtopia/Dubtopian Review.
    Daybreak is new all together and the first ever light theme. I picked this name because JAN is always a dark theme so this theme is a sun rising to light up the darkness.

    Blue is the new purple so it's a must if someone is submitting a default theme till Spor says otherwise.
    All three girls Arisu, Kami and Midori are Just Anime's Mascots.
    Previously it was only one Mascots per new site with Arisu being the most used.
    JustDubs/JustDubs Forums = Kami
    Just Dubs Review = Midori
    JustDubs Refuge = Kami then Arisu (Arisu was introduce during half of JDR's life span for Dubtopia)
    Dubtopia/Dubtopian Review = Arisu (New outfits and poses along the way)
    JustDubs Online = Arisu then I obtained all of Kami's images along with Midori again. The original images of Kami were lost in time as for Midori she was never known (only the elder members knew about her) even by me till Jay found a snapshot of JustDubs Review and saw her. Chibi Midori was created during JDO's time. All three of them soon ended up being used.
    Just Anime = Arisu, Kami and Midori all together from the start.

    I would like to thank you all for the support, I'm glad to know you're enjoying these themes! :)

    @Crazy Potato great job! I love the cleanness of the design, easy going on the eyes and easy to navigate. I'm sporting the Revival theme, the purple and red look great.

    Well since purple is my favorite, I had to go with the Revival one. I do like them all. Very good work Crazy.

    I thought having a multi-choice theme was a great idea. As of the moment, I'm using purple but I think I might stick to either the default theme or the refuge theme.

    Nice work!!!! XD

    Let's go with Midori the Reviewer.
    Originally, I used a light blue text color for my posts, but the default text color for the default theme is blue too. Kinda terminated the uniqueness of my specific text color.

    Time to search for a new text color. Wonder which one now.

    Thanks for the new themes, @Crazy Potato!
