Yep, I also noticed that some skins are not editable or only 2 settings are editable.

If you click 'edit' on the subsilver style, almost all the textfields have some data in it that you can change. However with some other style (If i remember correctly the IF styles) there will be only 2 settings that you can change (2 font colors) but nothing more.

It's because the default style sheet "***.css" takes priority over the editable fields.

If we could edit the style sheet then the forums would be more configurable.

I've cross matched the style sheets from one skin to another and also deleted that field just to see what effect it had.

Deleting the .css call makes more of the fields editable but you loose much of the formating also.
