Hi all, as you can see, we've migrated the forums to a dark theme in preparation for the release of Magic v3 soon.
If you notice any issues with readability, layout, or inconsistent colors, please let us know. We're continuing to tweak it as necessary.
The main Magic web site will also be updated when v3 is released.
For now, we hope you enjoy!

Please make the blue and purple text brighter (less saturated).
I find these hard to read as they are much darker than the white text.
Also on my phone I find the presentation very confusing if I try to reply. I see a Topic review box rather than a Reply box.

Ok we'll try to make them a bit brighter.
That Topic Review is just a link to see previous posts in the topic, I believe.

I understand the Topic Review, but the reply box seems to be labelled Topic review until I preview my reply.

Hear's an example. I'm replying in the box labeled "Topic review".
The actual Topic review is visible if I scroll down.

OK, but that does not address the point I was trying to make. I was unsure whether the box apparently labelled "Topic review" was where I should type a reply.
When a browser window is too narrow for the Smilies to be displayed to the right of the reply box "Topic review" is placed just above the reply box and at first sight seems to be a label for it
In response to your request for feedback on the layout I found this confusing.

Understood. So you don't recall seeing that before? We didn't change anything with what links appear where.

Ah. . It must be the change to the dark theme that changed my perception of this, as I've no recollection of previous problems.
Perhaps helpful to have an overall website option to follow a user's OS./browser preferences for light or dark theme.
