When I hover my mouse icon over the "C5" selection. at the bottom of my browser window I see:
forums.corvetteforum.com/mics.php?do=changestyle&customstyleid=5. Nothing happens when I click on the C5 link. Or any of them for that matter.
The C7 image itself appears to be at images.corvetteforum.com/images/misc and that C7 logo is c7_corvettelogo.png.
Is the C5 logo file c5_corvettelogo.png????

I do see the C1 thru C7 links at the bottom of the Welcome, userid box. and I did delete all of the CF related cookies; something like 6 or 7 of them. I closed my browser (FF v26.0) restarted it and logged back in. Still can't change the logo.

I tried it across all the popular browsers when c4cruiser reported but I could not duplicate the issue. The theme was tested by several before being pushed and that specific feature had no reports of issues.
So we need to determine why it's not working for you.
Like I asked c4cruiser, when you select the style in the welcome area (as shown in the 1st attachment) does the links on the left (as shown in the 2nd attachment) update?
If not, please delete all CorvetteForum cookies and revisit the site. Note that logging out does not clear all cookies. You must physically delete the cookies.

I'm using FF 26 myself. Are you using any extensions?
Those C1 - C7 links are simply plain links. No fancy javascript or anything is used. When any of those links are clicked on, the page should change as if you clicked on any other normal link. You provided the link for C5 when you hover your mouse over it (forums.corvetteforum.com/mics.php?do=changestyle&customstyleid=5) which is the correct link. That link should load like any clicked on link.

The "Community" not appearing for you is not due to any cookie issue. I believe that is a usergroup level issue. I'm looking into that.
This does not explain or prevent the logo in the upper left from changing. When I join the same Premium usergroups as you and C4Cruiser, the style change does work and does update that logo in the upper left corner. That logo not changing for some was what I was more focused on as being a reported issue.

Note that the word "community" does not show up no matter which style I select. And I have deleted EVERY cookie I have. So now I have to log into every website I visit now. Three complete cookie deletions have occurred. My only other option is to delete all cookies then shut down the whole danged computer and see if that works.

Can you give me a specific condition to where you're trying to change the style and it does nothing? Are you on a certain page, certain forum, certain thread, or certain post? Please give a specific condition so that I can review and test so that we're all on the same page.
Thanks.

No change. Additional info for you, the exact same issue occurs when I use my mac with OSX 10.9.1 and FF 25.0.1 EDIT, updated to FF 26 on the mac, no change. Don't know what this tells you but there ya go.
Good luck.

With you being a Premium member, did you previously have the "Community" links? When I join that usergroup and try the old themes, I don't have the "Community" links. Instead, I have the Edit links. So I'm not sure if Premium members had the "Community" links like normal accounts did/do as Premium accounts got the custom links allowing to define them themselves.
Understand that I'm a bit in the middle of this figuring and helping out.

FYI, did the clear EVERYTHING, then actually shutdown, (not a restart) then started the computer up.

Understand about being in the middle, been there done that before just not regarding websites.

I do know non-premium members only had the Community links as the Edit links was a premium feature. Just wasn't 100% sure if Premium members had both. Doing some checking and testing, it appears Premium members just have the Edit links. So when I said to check if the Community links updates when you try changing the C1 - C7 link, that probably only applies for non-premium members.
Can you give me a specific link (section, thread, post, etc.,) that you've used when trying to update the style without success?
For example, if you view this link: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/help-forum-31/ and then try the C1 - C7 links, does it not work? That will help make sure we're on the same page and starting point.

Couldn't tell you about the community links thing since I have been a premium member so long, sorry. I do show "edit links" vice "community".

Try deleting your Corvette Forum cookies and revisit the site and use the Remember me option when you log in. Yes, for some reason, members got kicked out during the upgrade process but it shouldn't (and doesn't for me) keep occurring. I do agree the site is slow and it will be looked into.
Only the C7 emblem is dispaying regardless.

Tired again to get the C5 logo. I logged off which displayed a message box that said all cookies were cleared. I then closed the CF browser window. I Then looked at the cookie list that is available in FF through the options tab and cleared out 5 cookies that had names involving corvetteforum.
Then I closed FF, re-opened it (CF is my default home page) and signed in. I clicked on the C5 link and the page appeared to refresh but the C7 image is still there.

Please try something to help determine the issue.
1) Load a page here and click on one of the theme besides the C7 theme
2) Right-click in a blank space of the webpage
3) Click on the View Page Source
4) Go to Edit and then Find
5) In the "Find in this page" field, enter corvettelogo.png
Please copy/paste the entire line that you find the above. It will appear something like this:

What I did was to close the browser, restart it and I loaded this page. I clicked on the C3 link and I got this in the page source:
overflow: auto"> background:url("https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...logo.png") no-repeat ;</pre>
It looks like the string got truncated, but it shows /c4_corvettelogo.png
