Hi there, love your theme. I've downloaded it and am "playing" with the css file, great fun!
I have noticed however when I select a main menu item ie Forums in my case, the selection changes colour to represent the users choice, however when I select an item from the forums page ie a topic the Forums page, the main menu reverts back to its original colour and loses focus. Any work around for this?

hi andre and thanks for a great theme.

the poster above means, when you click on any given node-
in this case the example of a forum post-

by default there is not an "active trail" mechanism that connects
any given node to a certain menu item, in this case forums

of course this is not a theme problem, and there is no really good theme-based workaround-
as there is no "selected" property to "lose" in the first place

i would suggest simply using the menu trails module-
and then its super-easy to create the desired "active trail", for all forum nodes-
to the forum menu item.

cool?

thanks again-
your theme work is solid!

Thanks for clarifying Vincent. If this doesn't seem to be theme related, I'm going to go ahead and close this up.
