Registered users can change the look of the forum. This will only change it for the user. To change the appearance of the forum, you must be logged in. Then go to the "Profile" button at the top of the page. Towards the bottom of the page is the section, "Preferences". Next to the "Board Style" area, click on the arrow to reveal the names of other styles. Then select one to try out.

When you are done, hit the submit button at the bottom of the page. When you go back to the forum, you will see your change. If you don't like it, just go back to your Profile page and change it to something else.

I installed some more template choices. Check them out! Remember, you can switch back and forth between templates in seconds, so if you don't like one, you can just switch to something else.

Some of them won't allow the name of the forum and animated dancing cats gif to go up at the top, but you all know you are on this forum if you change the template you see, so it doesn't matter. But I wouldn't use any of those for the default view for new visitors to see first.
