June 2, 20196 yr just make that slate gray background a plate of Buck's brisket and a slab of ribs...

June 10, 20196 yr I messed with it and I can't get this theme to not look like absolute shit with dark colors. I'll buy another theme that is dark by default and add it in.
June 10, 20196 yr https://www.ipsfocus.com/themes/ can you guys pick a theme from this place that you like (obviously we will modify parts of it to have burnt orange.)

June 11, 20196 yr I'm cool with Chameleon Dark. That would be a huge improvement over this Blinding White. Thanks, immamac.
June 11, 20196 yr Chameleon Dark looks cool - also like Deflection. Also also - the background images don't "stick" when you change them. I like the gray one but I have to change it every time I log in.

June 24, 20196 yr Ah shit I knew I forgot something - I'll add those right now, I put them in the footer, but not up top!!

June 25, 20196 yr That's due to the imported styling on the quoted text and not the quote itself. Check it out without dark theme enabled to see what I mean the font is colored so that if the background changes it will be hard to read. There is an option to format all copy and paste data as plain text, but I think people prefer to keep the formatting, let me know if that isn't the case and I'm happy to change it to plain text because I personally can't stand importing formatting
June 25, 20196 yr The plain text is WAY better, I select it every single time I quote anything. A little more contrast between the read/unread threads on Dark would be cool, they’re pretty close as is.

June 26, 20196 yr On the dark theme, do you have any CSS control? This is a "fine tuning" request -- on the list of topics on any given board, the difference between "read" and "unread" titles isn't distinct enough (like it is on other themes). Suggestion - either increase the "font-weight" on the unread topics or change the "color" on the read topics from white to something a little more gray. Whatever looks good and/or is easiest to give a little more distinction. I really like the dark theme - just having a tad bit of trouble distinguishing read from unread that I didn't have before.

June 26, 20196 yr There are two unread threads here, guess. See how ridiculously close that is? Edited June 26, 20196 yr by spystud13
June 27, 20196 yr Can someone explain to an idoit how I can use this dark theme feature on my desktop and phone?
June 27, 20196 yr Scroll to the very bottom of the page, click the drop down next to Theme, select Surly Main - Dark.
June 28, 20196 yr 20 hours ago, immamac said: Are the unreads better now? If you could make the read thread titles the same font color as the "By (name), (date)" line or the "action bubbles to the left of the title" it would probably be perfect. (e.g., gray instead of white - the BOLD unread titles and the regular read titles are both white -- still takes a sec to mentally process the font weight)
June 28, 20196 yr I don't think I can unfortunately I'll explore in the CSS, but I think the text for both is linked. OR I can change the text color for the bolded one as the regular text inherits from the global css and doesn't have it's own.

And the regular white text for *read* topics? Edited June 28, 20196 yr by RamjetFDO
June 28, 20196 yr Just now, immamac said: I tried that and it looks like dogshit lol too much burnt orange Oh you aggy... there's no such thing.
June 28, 20196 yr @immamac is it possible to have the Dark Theme as well as having avatars turned off? I changed to Dark on my computer and avatars are showing up.
