    Mobile mode locked me out of settings

    So the skin on this site is atrocious, grey text on grey background so I can't see anything unless I select all text to make it visible. I tried tinkering around my settings and trying different skins, chose the mobile one thinking it would be more reasonable. It is, but now I can't see attachments but when I pressed the back button, it says the settings page is not available for mobile users. Someone really didn't think this design through.

    How do I revert my settings?

    XPForever you're not alone, the site styles can be buggy, and may not have been updated recently. I would not recommend the Mobile style, but you can try the Default style. That's what I've been using as of late. You should be able to switch by clicking your profile name and then Full Site. Default forum skin can be changed in user preferences - general settings.

    EDIT: I figured out how to revert it, I found the FULL SITE button. Note to self, never go mobile mode from a PC again. I don't own a mobile device and now I'm gonna avoid mobile-catering apps and settings too.

    I've been using the "VC Blue" skin for months now, never noticed any issues or bugs (Win 10, Waterfox browser). It's nice + dark too

    I'm now using "VC default" like Shem recommended and it's fine. Grey text on black background. I could've sworn this was the problematic theme selected upon registering so not sure what transpired. Maybe the admin rolled out a fix.

    Hi Nimueh the bugs I see in VC Blue skin and the other skins is because I'm using "Night Mode" in my browser which forces websites to use a dark theme, causing issues with some of the backgrounds/fonts.
