When a man lies, 
he murders some part of the world. 
These are the pale deaths, which men miscall their lives.
All this I cannot bear to witness any longer; 
cannot the kingdom of salvation take me home?

Playing with a new theme...
« Opened on December 12, 2018, 17:27:41 PM »

It has a light and dark mode and it looks like this:

If you're interested in taking a peek at it, maybe looking for some bugs, please let me know.

Because of the way the theme system works, and not wanting to introduce more hassle than required, there's only a subset of themes that you can use (unless you're an admin). Some of them have horrible bugs and some just need to be deleted!

Anyhow, if you'd like to play with it then let me know and I'll manually set your theme for you - when I have the time to do so. If I do set your theme, you can always reset it yourself. I'd also like it if you made it a point to look for bugs and place those bugs into this thread.

Bonus points if you come up with some nifty images for me to replace.

And, if you're uncertain, you can change back to your other theme at any time. However, you won't be able to flip back and forth between them.

Some usernames are a slightly lighter grey than the background in dark mode, making them hard to see. One of the places is in "Top Poster". Some are grey and some are bluish grey. Other places, for instance, is in an archive board listing where my name is grey in "...viewing this board" but are bluish everywhere else in that list. I'm assuming the darker occurrences are 'clickable' tags where the others are not (just info level).

Yup. I won't be playing with username colors for a while longer. That will be after I'm sure that I will be keeping the theme.

Sadly, username colors are independent of the theme settings, unless I want to do a ton of customization.

@SandHog You should be set and using the SunRise theme. Kindly post bugs in this thread, please.
