Strange UI elements/labels in the classic themes

Latest commit 386b59a 3 days ago

Just wanted to point this out if no one has caught it yet.
I love classic-darkblue theme, but it seems this problem persists throughout all of the "classic" themes:

thanks for all your hard work!

Classic had been dropped.
You cannot use it with the latest releases.
Don't try.

Damn. Sad news indeed. Classic-Darkblue is the one I've been using for as long as I can remember.

We dropped it because of its dismal performance with large queues and histories.
Also, maintaining 3 skins is bad enough.
The design of Classic is such that most new features couldn't even be implemented.
It is just too much from 2008.

I understand. I'm just going to miss that very simplistic design. I'll probably look into modifying an existing one to make it look similar to Classic.

After switching from 'Glitter - Default' to 'Glitter - Night', changing the background from black to dark gray and shortening 'History' section I'm starting to grow attached to this new interface!

Thanks for the suggestion though.

Go to Status and Interface settings (on top, the wrench icon) and then go to the tab Web interface. There you can select the number of items to display in the history.
