April Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 judging all of you wanting a light mode Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 (edited) I don't necessarily hate dark themes, it's just that I prefer light themes. ...Except on Discord. Though, that's mostly because the light theme has too much white and I mostly use it at night during our N4A Mario Kart nights. Now, when there's the option to have it auto switch from light to dark theme buy time of day, I'm all for that! Edited November 17, 2020 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment

DLurkster Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Forget when I was last on here and wonder if I was on the same forum but I like the visual changes. Will have to get use the the rounded edges of the square avatars, nice touch. Kodiack 1 Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Just a heads up @Kodiack I just posted these images from imgur in a spoiler post here: The images are not showing up, just the link and the [img] on each side of the link in the spoiler. I posted this from laptop on firefox, just to let you know. I try other methods to see how I can get the images to show up. Quote Link to comment

EDIT: NVM, I think the upgrade made it possible to put the direct link of the image instead of BBCode anymore. Just gotta make a mental note of that now. Thanks Kodiack for that. That is a little more easier now. Quote Link to comment

Kodiack Posted November 17, 2020 Author Share Posted November 17, 2020 @EH_STEVE @alienboyva I've enabled the IPS light theme. As before, it's not something that I'll maintain to quite the same degree, but please do let me know if you run into any issues or oddities! alienboyva and EH_STEVE 2 Quote Link to comment

DLurkster Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Signing in anonymously, that does not show up as a option when I attempt sign in from the top left hand corner, can't say you do when you go to the actually page but I'd like that back, the option to sign in anonymously from the jump. I had to go into account options to turn on or off the anonymous actions. I guess I don't mind but that is too many steps for someone who once in a while goes anonymous. Quote Link to comment

Is there any you can take the dark skin and just change the colors? I just thought that would make things easier an keep parity between both skins (if possible that is).

I'd prefer the assistance of a designer if I went that route. alienboyva 1 Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) Man, with this recent update they really took a lot of the color out of the standard theme we use as our light skin. I feel like there's too much white now. I feel they should have done something sort of like this: Spoiler Just throwing out some of my initial thoughts on the new light sink. I'm sure I can get used it. BTW, from looking at some of the skins available, some seem to come with both a light and dark version. IDK if it would really be worth investing in something like that, as most just use the dark skin, but it is interesting to see nonetheless.

There is a toggle for the theme in use here, but all it does is toggle between one theme and another. It would still require basically the same amount of work. I'm currently finishing up my final week at my current job and starting a new job at the very end of the month. I'm hoping to have the time to improve the light theme a bit more in that time off between jobs. Quote Link to comment

It's great you want to improve it, but don't feel like it's something you have to do right away when you have free time. Quote Link to comment

Same goes for this @Kodiack, whenever you find time to to do the above. I'll be grateful for it. Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) I can I mention one super awesome feature I noticed with this update? Quoted posts with images, embedded media, or are just really long now have an expand option to help keep scrolling down. BTW, as you can sort of see, the size of embedded tweets have been fixed after Twitter did that update to them. No more tiny images/videos! \(^o^)/ Edited November 18, 2020 by alienboyva TKrazyO, Doc Brown and Kodiack 3 Quote Link to comment
