Dark forum theme
Click to burn eyes.
Click to burn what's left of 'em.
Well, apart from some minor elements not being visible due to them being tied to the background color, what do you think? Good to go? And which one?
This is practically the best I could juice out of ProSilver. If anyone feels like editing, feel free to do so.

Re: Dark forum theme
I'm personally in favor of the second one because I find that the text is more legible for me in addition to black primarily being the color in the background. I've been waiting for something like this.
Re: Dark forum theme
The previews for it look pretty awful, to be honest.

You can make a style based on that - I think I can import it on top of ZDoom's slightly customized templates without losing anything.

Re: Dark forum theme
Those look a whole lot better. Especially the slightly-blue one.

Re: Dark forum theme
As long as they are not replacing the current dark one...
Re: Dark forum theme
Nah. These are extra themes. Dark-blue's gonna stay, that's for sure. Too many people like it and use it. Wouldn't be wise to remove it at this point.
EDIT: Slightly touched the white text, because it was too white and made my eyes hurt. Should be softer now. Final one.

Re: Dark forum theme
This looks really good - however, there is another issue with this style - unread forums/topics are nearly indistinguishable. The blue tinge is nice but it doesn't stand out nearly enough to make this usable.
No one wants to use a style where they can't tell the difference between what they've seen and what they haven't.

Re: Dark forum theme
Agreed. My bad, will fix as soon as I get home.
Re: Dark forum theme
Better saturated blue.
I'm afraid that any more saturation than this and the blue will become too contrasted, putting a strain on the eyes.
BTW the current dark theme doesn't seem to make a difference between read and unread. The only difference is the icon.

Re: Dark forum theme
That is by design.
I'll go ahead and implement this.
We'll have to still work on it - it looks like you're going to have to edit the images directly.
You can use the git repo here: https://github.com/drdteam/zdoom-styles

Re: Dark forum theme
This is pretty much mostly functional, for now, and since it only requires minor tweaks I'm going to go ahead and enable this for general use.
Re: Dark forum theme
Fine by me. I'm almost done with the CSS and image edits. Should be ready in an hour or two.

Re: Dark forum theme
I'd probably suggest moving to phpBB 3.1 or 3.2 before worrying about and getting attached to any new styles. 3.0 styles are completely incompatible.
