When you decide to use the https version of the site there is no css at all on any page

The basic reason is because https isn't officially supported by the forums and is only offered because of the cloudflare DNS which automagically sets one up. The more detailed reason is because the pages have links to the stylesheets and scripts (css and js) for all the pages, however, these links are to non-secure pages and your browser detects this and forbids it as part of the same origin policy which states that:

Under the policy, a web browser permits scripts contained in a first web page to access data in a second web page, but only if both web pages have the same origin. An origin is defined as a combination of URI scheme, hostname, and port number.

In this case the URI scheme is the portion that is being violated where the stylesheet has protocol http and the request was made from a page obtained over https.
