Title: Easy on the eyes style for forums
Post by: Paradox on April 13, 2007, 02:07:04 am
Well, the grey and black can be a bit hurtful on the eyes at times, so i have made up a userstyle for the forums. The css file and instructions are avalible here (http://paradox460.googlepages.com/tremulousforumsalternatestyle2)
Screenshot there too.

I like this one better, but the light grey reply could use a slight turndown in darkness though

Looks good paradox, but the blue schema is a tad bit punchy on my eyes.  Personally, anything on a white background seems to relax my eyes, whereas, this grey stuff just hurts the "grey stuffing" above and behind them.

I now tremulous is supposed to be scary and all, but dark backgrounds just make my eyes shake, nothing more.

Anyone who wants to can edit their eyes, i mean the colors in the template.

Thanks, I think it looks great!  There are a few things I would tweak slightly:
 - "imput" is a typo
 - too much contrast between row1 and row2
 - too little contrast between followed links and background on topic list
 - annoying gray line at left and right edges of spacer row
 - missing styles for composition page - subject line, tag buttons and help row are still gray

I finished the newest release, and have updated the file.
Features/fixes:
What's next?Now you can also get it from userstyles in either greasemonkey or stylish format, since they have fixed their ruby code:

you know what you should do?
the link for the huge ass pic saying "Tremulous" in the left top corner should be linked to the tremulous site. not tremulous forum site.

No, it's a post about a style sheet that anyone can use as a template to set the colors that they like.  I wasn't aware of the Style Firefox plugin (I'm not a plugin junkie, the only one I had before was adblock), so I really appreciate Paradox's contribution.
