When I logged in today, I suddenly noticed the red theme is no longer available! What happened to it? 
I actually don't mind the blue theme per say but I don't think it fits the "droid" theme which had always been red and black. Personally, I always try to provide users of my sites with a light and dark theme as I find dark themes to be far easier on my eyes. Can we please get the red theme back before I carve my eyes out???!!!
Bring Back The Red Theme!

All the themes need to be redone on the new ISP board. But I'm with you, I want the OG red back!

For now, I suggest using BluZone - it's not red, but it's a b(ew)itchingly sweet theme nonetheless.

Was there another upgrade in the past 24 hours? Cause it was working fine yesterday. Either way is there an ETA? This should have been considered before upgrading but template updates are typically pretty quick and easy so it should be quick and painless given 10-15 min or so generally speaking.

Yup Site was updated last night to the new forums software. I assume someone is working on either a new theme or fixing the old ones but I don't know for sure.

To each there own, personally I find it much uglier then the standard IPB skin.

Yeah thats why I said there should be an actual dark theme. IMO, premium software like IPB(wait IPB shouldn't be cosnidered premium software 
Sorry long time vBulletin user), vBulletin and my new personal favourite XenForo, should come with a nice dark skin included by default, but that's another topic in itself.

No theme from IPS 3.2.x is upgradeable. It has to be new, 3.4.4 is a complete rewrite of the code

VB actually sucks compared to IPS... I know I ran a vb board for several years. But that's another story...

A few of us are already in talks about getting some new themes, my personal favs are the red/black as well. In time I am sure we will have the options available as we used to. Admin and others have been working hard on just making sure that the functionality of the site is working right which is whats important. Themes will come.

I'm happy with things whatever the color. Heck..I spend more time on Tapa than I do on the site anyway.
Thanks for the new coat of paint on my 3rd home!
