Perhaps another template, of the original without the updated colors, could be added so that we could disable the neon blue from the profile menu
Yeah, I like that idea.  But can it even be done?
It sure can!  ;D
Go into your profile, click Looks and Layout, and at the top, click the "Change Template" link. You can make the forums look different from the default.

It might be possible to change only the color of the links made in posts, and set the links of the Forum System color back to the original.
(That would take some research and using the SMF support site)

Of couse, silly me!  It's been so long since the last time I visited my profile options that I had completely forgotten about that feature.

I'm sure it could be done, yes.  Might take a fair amount of work though.
On the issue of the new colour, I think it's pretty much OK.
Maybe a little bright, but then again it does make the forums look more cheery.
I can see how some would consider it too bright and perhaps garish though.
But, you can't deny that the links stand out more ;D

    How come I missed this entire topic?????

    I just realized a few minutes ago when I logged on that all the links were changed.
    Now I have to get used to it....

    ...  It's too bad we can't just change the in-post links without having to change all of the others.


    I already asked that, and had an idea.   At least as far as the  add url icon goes.

    Exchanged a few PMs with Admin,  but he never addressed the question.
    Somehow got confused.     My last reply was back in June,  but I've heard no more on it.
