I clicked on the C1 theme then did your page source/find and here is what I got.

So you select C3 under the Welcome, C4Cruiser section, the page reloads, and then the source code shows you should have the C4 logo? What logo did you see?
Since your username pertains to the C4, was that a typo when you said you clicked on the C3 link?

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

c7_corvettelogo.png again

Your first results of selecting C3 and the source code showing the C4 logo but you actually seeing C7 logo suggest a cache issue. If the source code shown the C4 logo, that's what your browser was told to display.

Clicking the generations links doesn't work for me on my Win7 pc at home (IE and FF), my Win 8 pc at the office (IE, FF and Opera), my iPad tablet (Safari) or my Samsung phone (browser).

The only two things that will really change are the CorvetteForum logo in the upper-left and the links on the left side column. The differences between the CorvetteForum logos aren't extremely noticeable and have fooled some already into thinking nothing was changing when in fact the logo was changing. Like I said in this post:
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/1585697859-post15.html
The CorvetteForum logo change is the biggest change you will see:
c7
c6
c5
c4
c3
c2
c1

Scroll down to the lower left corner of the page... there is the default screen pulldown.
Need to change to the 2014 option.

I'm also having the same problem as the others regarding changing the skin in FF.

You might try it again because Ad block does in fact block the CSS from the remote server which causes the issue you describe. It has done that for some time.

BTW, this system is a dedicated browsing machine and has not changed configuration in about 2 years.

In fact, when I did this, it remembered that during my testing, the last one I tried was C3 or C4, can't remember which but that came up when I did the change to default 2014, and now it will change to whatever I click on.
JT, this IS the fix!!!!!

The CSS for that column is not served by CorvetteForum's domain, so disabling ABP on CorvetteForum likely won't change since the domain serving that CSS is still blocked. Try disabling ABP as an extension and then reload the page.
This issue was reported some months back by some ABP users. With different configurations in ABP, results may vary, but it is due to ABP.
