Why I love these forums. (Linux Themes)

Recommended Posts

Do you have ANY idea how rare it is for a site to blend in with my GNOME theme? Seriously.

The website is a nightmare for my gnome theme.  Thats the main reason I use the simple machines forum skin, and use a CSS override to change the main website page background colour from green to gray and hid the background image.

I normally use an FF extension I wrote up awhile back to invert the colors being rendered. It's not perfect, but it does keep most sites from BLINDING me.

I just like the whole pseudo-retro look, you know? Green on black FTW.

Its not that bad...

Something I have noticed with most dark themes is that they look bad at first glance, but use them for a while and they look better then light themes and are easier to read.

It's pretty damn hideous with FF, not to mention that most text-fields and buttons are unreadable.

It looks decent with most other programs, though. Easy to read, doesn't strain my eyes, doesn't bathe my room in that unnatural monitor glow at night, etc.

If you want to change the colours of input fields, you can get the addon called "Stylish" for firefox, then just create a blank style and insert this into it:

input {
  color: #00ff00 !important;
}

Just change 00ff00 to colour type you want should you decide to change it, and it should change the colour of the text in all input fields.  Unless I screwed something up, but it seems to be working for me at first glance here.

I thought you were going to say something about the players on the forums!

I was going to correct you ;D

I fix that problem by turning my laptop off..

Considering what I do for a living, that's not exactly an option.

Sure, I could turn the monitor off, but do you have any idea how long it takes for a 32" CRT to warm up? :/

What could possibly keep you from turning off your computer?

You know, I'm starting to agree with Amikron about the state of Wurm's community.

It's not the focus of this thread, and it's none of your damn business. Quit being a prick.

You were the one who brought it up, I was just asking.

In the future, try not to spaz out when someone asks you a question, please.

p.s. it really is a horribly ugly theme

What kind of theme do you use (Assuming you use GNOME (KDE sucks))?

Also, this thread is now about linux desktop themes.

Eh it's an alright theme I guess...

I prefer a colour scheme more like Ubuntu Studio's default.
