They're not a bad system. I kinda got used to them when messing with phpBB for a change. Easy to change icons just with CSS tweaks (no template editing required). You can even put a gradient across them if you're feeling adventurous.

Ooooooooooo I did not know that. Makes sense tho; if you can colorize it, well then. I didn't thought of that hehehe

Yup. The basics are...
.relevant_element {
    background: linear-gradient(120deg, #e033ff, #ffa629, #e033ff);
    -webkit-background-clip: text; /* fallback for Apple shiz */
    background-clip: text;
    color: #0000; /* transparent - essential */
}

Yup, that's how it works. You can even play with text-shadow on it too, but you have to be careful because with the transparent color setting the text shadow can drown out the gradient.

However, try this for an example:
/* -------------------------------- */
/* Anchor around forum name/banner. */
#top {
    display: block;
    max-width: 100% !important;
    margin: 0 auto !important;
    font-family: roboto, sans-serif;
    text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px rgba(23,35,44,.3);
}
#top:hover, #top:focus, #top:active {
    text-decoration: none;
}
/* ------------------------------- */
/* Hide site default banner image. */
#top > img {
    display: none;
}
/* ---------------------------- */
/* Add pseudos for fake banner. */
#top::before {
    display: block;
    padding: 36px 8px 12px;
    background: linear-gradient(95deg,#a18768,#f3cd82,#ad8658);
    color: transparent;
    font-size: 2.125rem;
    font-weight: 700;
    -webkit-background-clip: text;
    background-clip: text;
    content: 'Simple Machines Forum';
}
/* Add pseudos for fake banner. */
#top::after {
    display: block;
    padding: 0 14px 7px;
    color: #8d887c;
    font-size: 1rem;
    font-weight: 300;
    content: 'Elegant, effective, powerful, free. It\'s that simple.';
}

That's the code I'm running live on this site, via Stylus, as part of my dark theme.

They are wonderful things, for all sorts of purposes. I even use them to make drop menus less twitchy, and stop the last drop butting up against the bottom of the screen in admin. IMO this is one of the best uses for them on desktop.

Sorry to open this topic after a long time.

Just tried this theme on wampserver, I know what I have done wrong just tried to install this theme on the latest 2.1.1 it installed ok but for some reason I can't close the features and menu pop up box so I can revert back to another theme.

(https://i.postimg.cc/j2R5CVgL/Screenshot-2022-02-13-221807.png)

Is there anyway of reverting back to another theme without uninstalling wamp.

Known issue with themes developed for RC version.

Swicth to default by changing the url in your browser, add: /index.php?theme=1

the z-index on the menu is a bit too high (1002) for this pop-up (6)

I'm using a fresh install of 2.1.14 and I'm having issues with the mobile menus for the admin options and the user actions. The background is transparent.
