Looks nice.  Unfortunately you're likely going to want to modify the colors for 'QUOTE'...

Also, and this is just a personal preference, how do you remove the lines above and below the signature?

Thanks for the feedback I'll try and fix that tonight or tomorrow! ;)

In index.css

Find:
/* sigs, custom fields, etc. */
.attachments, .under_message, .custom_fields_above_signature, .signature, .custom_fields_below_signature {
    padding: 12px 0 2px;
    line-height: 1.25rem;
    font-size: 0.75rem;
    border-top: 2px solid #188dd3;
    box-shadow: inset 0 1px 0 #000;
}

Replace with:
/* sigs, custom fields, etc. */
.attachments, .under_message, .custom_fields_above_signature, .signature, .custom_fields_below_signature {
    padding: 12px 0 2px;
    line-height: 1.25rem;
    font-size: 0.75rem;
    border-top: none;
    box-shadow: none;
}

The line below the signature is a part of the border around the page so you would have to change the border color.

There was some minor css changes but the original theme before the update should still work with no problems! ;)

Installed this theme earlier today at the request of a member. We had a few issues.

1. Background image URL in CSS was incorrect:

background-image: url("/Themes/Blue_Space2.1.2a/images/background.jpg") !important;

needed changing to:

background-image: url("../../../Themes/Blue_Space2.1.2a/images/background.jpg") !important;


2. Quoted text in reply-to boxes was light against a light background.

.bbc_alternate_quote {
  background-color: #ebf4f8;
  }

This CSS fixed the issue:

.bbc_alternate_quote {
  background-color: #ebf4f8;
  color: #000;
}

1. I changed the url to what @SulevFan suggested and I lose the background so it is correct the way it is.

Ackchyually*pushes glasses up* it seems this is done improperly.  /small joke

It is not showing background for me either :P.

You will want to change the url to background-image: url("../images/background.jpg") ;

The way you have it, it is looking for a specific directory. If the user has their directories setup different in any way, it will not work.

Where as when using ../  this goes directly to the source directory of the theme, then you specify the image location from there.

Hope this helps.  Keep up the good work @Shades. :).

Well... :P the way I have it works for me but if I change it, the background doesn't show. I'll have to mess around with it later when I get more time because if this is the case I will have to go and change all my themes with backgrounds cause I did them all the same in that regard and this is the first time anyone has commented about it, I think! ??? O:) ;)

Haha I know that feeling bud :).

I am 99.99% sure if you use the method I provided, no issues will occur :).

Also as someone who has had to do something similar, using the find and replace function in Notepad++ makes the process alot easier.

What files did you change in your themes to update them?

I ask because I've done some minor color changes and I don't want to lose them.
