i think he means white text on dark bg. How about you try black text instead?

You might want to lighten up the blue link text, it's a bit dark. Also, as I'm sure you're aware, the box around the reply box is a bit too light, compared to the rest.

Other than that, I think it may become my new default. <3

Or maybe darken the link text. I don't know. Whatever looks better. Just the thin, I've-already-seen-this-post links look sort of hard to see.

Darker would be better, I think; lighter is probably worse.

Thanks, -KEN-. Not sure if I'll be doing much more tonight but I'll try and implement your suggestions as soon as I can.

Actually, the reply box is a bit of a supernova against the dark background. Ouch. :(

Themes require an updated XML file, which I can provide to you, but maybe you should just wait until I setup the test board... maybe today.

Either way, I've uploaded a few new styles and I've got a few more.

Warning: Emerald blue seems to be missing a lot of images.  It's all pissed up.

For VariantDark I've darkened the text edit areas and fixed some of the buttons so they don't have all that lighter crap around them; the icons are unchanged and I've left the hyperlink colours unchanged, too. If you still prefer them - or anything else - to be changed then let me know.

Thanks.

Yeah... I was using it for a bit yesterday... and it was great.  But now that the unread links blend, I had to go back to the VariantBlue.  (which I also like)

Anyone care to give me a screenie of what they mean? The link colours are still the same  for me in firefox - unchanged. :dunno:

edit: Actually, I tell a lie - I had changed the 'visited' colour but I couldn't see any difference. I've restored it to it's original value - how's that?

Strange... It looks fine now.  Maybe it was just a fluke.
