I posted this in the other thread, but just thought I'd put it here as well. Especially since I quoted you here to show how dark it is.
"Well Yatta,
Websites looking very cool.
Only issue I'd raise is that some of the text is too dark, maybe brighten it up a wee bit? Look at some of the quotes, the text is hard on the eyes. "
Also, the text icon (flashing thingy, cursor? can't think of the name), blends into the side of the reply box too much. Should be moved over a pixel or two?

deleted! It is fixed
also, this gap Mr. Fibble pointed out is random. I have this now on Firefox, and Safari, to lazy to test others. On the same threads, some look normal, and some have that gap. Do you want more images? Because when I re-load it, those gaps are not permanent.

OK, have it dark grey, colors are personal taste anyway, but gimme a chance to read it in a sunlight room.

Er, why would I give a shit about a screenshot that looks like the stylesheet is disabled?
Anyway, the quote thing is being looked at.

No idea. The image is from Safari, and the styles were not disabled. Anyways. Cheers.

I did just fix the other things you mentioned in the layout though. Your resolution is a bit low so the widths of the columns got too small to hold all of the content, making you end up with the "PM" in your post dates and times taking up its own line.
Edit: I also increased the brightness of a few text elements that were a bit dark. These include stuff like the topic descriptions when displayed in the forum index, etc.

Well, I wouldn't buy a widescreen monitor just to read this forum. While 1280x1024 isn't top notch anymore I think it should be considered. (In addition I usually browse in windowed mode, not fullscreen.) Thanks to your fix I'll keep my monitor for another while.

That's better, thanks again.
Now what remains to bother are the useless frames left and right.
EDIT: When opening an attached image which is bigger than my current browser window I have to scroll down and right to find the CLOSE button. Is it possible to put that into the top left corner (or both)? Or even better, open it in a new window like before? That's handy when trying to compare multiple attached images like in the HRP diskussions.

-That upside down drop right of the user's name is almost invisible.
-The sticky thread indicator should have more contrast.

I think it's quite legal to post such an opinion. Maybe in the suggestions thread. If there were many users complaining about the dark theme (but apparently there aren't) you should indeed reconsider. In the meantime due to the recent changes I can live with it (with not too much sun coming through the windows.)

I understand what your saying, but it's a pain in the ass to after weeks of work making this theme, to redo part of it just to appease a small amount of people who dislike it. Everybody is entitled to an opinion I agree, but since it's neither an issue nor is it supported by a vast majority of people, there's no point in changing it at the moment.
I'm not TX, but I'm pretty sure that's what he was getting at.

As of now I think that the only thing that you can do is just change the header. Although if it really bugs you, I believe Firefox has an extension\add-on called Greasemonkey that can change code on a page every time you go to it. I'm not entirely sure, but I think that you could use that to change the colors as well, I don't use Firefox, so you'd be better off asking someone who does, that' is, if you use Firefox.

It does not happen inChrome, Safari or Firefox. This is just a heads up!
