Nice one, I've got rid of the top section also, but at a similar stage:

Looking good. Never tried a dark theme but interested having seen this. Timescale to release?

Visit the link and manually update if it doesn't do it auto

Sorted thanks

Nice wiiija; what a turn-around.
I'll have a play myself with trying to darken the overall theme and lighten the text. The forums are now bearable!

Wiiija's theme is great but yeah I'd like it darker if possible.

Is there anyway to change the colour for the new posts symbol next to a forum section? Currently it's white but it doesn't stand out from the non new posts.

I'm on mobile site. Just noticed I'm in wrong thread too

I think it's perfect, if it's going darker maybe have something in the code to switch between slate/black to save forking it to another theme?

The only think I'd prefer is slightly whiter/lighter post content text - but I may mess with that in the css later.

Change the first #aaa to #fff

Yeah but that also makes the user information on the left white as well. Will have a fiddle later...

Where/what file are you guys editing? Does Stylish keep a copy of it locally that you edit or do you have to create a Stylish account?

The dark grey stylish theme doesn't work 100%, for example if you try to edit a post it doesn't give you the buttons to save your updated edit...

Your signature looks neat in this new forum dark theme.

what style are you referring to @wiiija, i have the one installed from @Barbie

In Chrome if you go to Stylish options and then you will see the list of themes and there is an edit box, you can make edits there.

Which one are we supposed to use now? Sorry if it's a stupid question, but I can't seem to ever get the right one. Just some sort of Frankenstein one...

darkgen · 14 Feb 2017 at 11:26

Ahh edit in chrome itself; thanks.

Yes I've got no idea what I'm doing. I think I'll leave it be and await some one with more competence to sort out!

Mahonyy · 14 Feb 2017 at 11:34

Thanks! the XEN-WIP theme will do for now, I hate the default blue layout

Will Gill · 14 Feb 2017 at 11:42

I'm sure I should support the new look forums, but for the time being I am loving this dark theme

Montegue · 14 Feb 2017 at 11:52

If anyone could get that black one working again that would be great. Until then I guess I'll be using that grey one (but still prefare the black one) This blue one of OC's is horrendous.

robj20 · 14 Feb 2017 at 12:40

Much better.

dirtychinchilla · 14 Feb 2017 at 12:50

How are you using it??

wiiija · 14 Feb 2017 at 13:10

I'll get everything finished on my grey theme tomorrow, my mouse just died so I can't do it today now doh! Those who want a darker theme feel free just to take my code and change it at will, mine will be staying the shade that it is
