Here's the good news. You can change your color (style) in the forum. Right now we just have one color change, but soon we will have more.
Here's the bad news. When you change the style it might think you have just started and haven't read any posts yet. If this happens, you can reset it to think you have read them all by clicking the "Mark forums read" on the upper right hand side.
So, if you want to see a new style, click the little arrow next to "Select a Style" and change to Tara. We will have to learn the new icons together.
