How can I Keep 6.42 colors with newer versions

Postby dnorkon » Sun Nov 09, 2014 12:36 am

I downloaded the latest version only to discover that the look of the interface changed significantly and was mainly white. Not particularly impressed with that. Now I can't find the version I was running in the archive, think it was something like 6.43 or thereabouts.

What I am asking is, can I use a newer version and keep the colour scheme of 6.42?

It follows windows color schemes so, for example you can set the window backgrounds to gray, Newsbin will follow. There are some themes you can set in the view menu. I don't really remember what the older ones looked like so, I can't really give any specific.

I have a [Colors] section in my .NBI as follows, gives me a grey background.

[Colors]
GridLines=1
GroupsDisplay=0
ServersDisplay=0
UseBackgroundColor=1
