We should change the appearance of this forum

@Androsclerozat
Cmon this forum format looks like trash, notifications also trash. -
If you want to change the appearance, post css that would do it and a poll. If the poll shows most people want a change, then I'll change it for everyone. Otherwise, we can add a custom theme for you.

I like simple and easy on the eyes.
This style isn't cluttered.
Just glad formatting tools aren't too haavily used.
I hated the formatting haidut used in RPF. It hurt the eyes too much. He would use boldtype and underline it. And it was so hard to read through that especially when he would do that paragraph long. It is so jarring I stopped reading.
His material is always good, but the way he presents it shows he hasn't learned good style.
Thankfully, he isn't doing that here.

Not a fan of the layout and apperance of this forum at all, i would be way more inclined to use this forum if it looked more like the lowtoxinforums apperance/layout
-
I didn't like it too but i tried Lumen theme, and it is actually pretty nice now. Agree for the other features though
-
@calvinklein21101 Brad contacted me and requested CSS of the page, and then create a poll, but the website doesn't let me create one and I am not an IT guy.
In the end he left the idea of changing it. Maybe too much work or no money, who knows. -

I can create one. Just not in the current events section.

I demand neon colored text on black background

@Androsclerozat Whats the theme you want? Link it and lets make a poll.

@Kilgore
The one called Evolve, but with lighter color. It's hard to read with all the time dark background. The more similar to lowtoxinforum theme, the better. I've never saw a forum so pleasing looking.
Other than that one, XenBase looks fine too, but changing background from white to a light color.But I think both cost between $25-40.

@Androsclerozat
Looking into this I don't think it's possible to add themes like that to the site. If you want something added it has to be from custom nodebb themes it seems.@brad you can searech all available themes Extend => Plugins => Find Plugins and searching for nodebb-theme.
-
@Kilgore Do any of these seem better to you? They all seem worse to me.
If you don't like the appearance of the forum, first look through the "skins" -- Profile -> Settings -> Select a Skin
You can send me some custom CSS that you like and I'll set aside one of the custom skins and tweak it so that it fits your preferences.
As for the overall color/layout/css of the forum, you can post a snippet and a particular change in the Meta section with a poll. If most people like the change, then I'll add it to the default site's CSS.
-
@brad I agree those look worse, what is bothering me is that I changed my theme to a darker skin but the bioenergetic forum bar at the top doesn't change colour and stays white
-
@calvinklein21101 If you can figure out how to change the top bar using css and tell me the theme you're using I'll add the css to that theme.
