mayunaise Senpai wrote I have decided to stray away from the red, and have instead opted for a purple: As much as I love the purp, I still think your should probably allow the changing of the accent color to whatever people want (save the color used to the account data?).
tftp Senpai wrote 22568 you could start off by telling me whether you like or dislike it c: I really like it, I wish I had this kind of eye for design
taymor I'm in love with this design, still not sure how I feel about the big + circle though. That purple looks awesome.
Clare 22579 Those stock MYBB stars have to go though. they're only there temporarily, as i don't have the icon font stars setup locally.
taymor Will this theme be easy for to quickly modify for different color combos? Like if a user sent you a list of colors, could you just drop it in the list and boom, suddenly a user choosable light theme?
Clare 22584 What do you mean? Everyone will be able to switch between a dark and light theme (the light theme will come a little while after the dark theme), and change the colour of the accents by adding a hex colour code in the theme settings page.
taymor 22588 The light theme thing was just an example, but say I made a list of colors in some format you defined, and I upload it. Could that list be quickly dropped into the theme on the fly, chosen out of a dropdown of theme color choices by me, and the css would grab its colors from that list. Rather than having to make redundant css files just to change colors.
taymor 22591 Sort of, but I think just a list of a few presets chosen by Senpai would work fine, it would just be a more efficient and easy way to do it.
Usuka Not to make any assumptions, but from my experience, it wouldn't be very dificult to have the colours be varibles set by the user in the CP. That all depends on the developer's vison for the site though.
Clare 22592 it's something i might consider; although yes, it would be easy to allow users to set any colours they want.
tn5421 The default should be red as it was before though. Purple on black doesn't really look that good and we don't want to scare away guests with an ugly looking forum.
Clare 24027 red and black is an overused cliche. i've heard mostly praise from the people I've shown screenshots of the purple to.
Clare As requested, people can now switch to the new theme in the usercp, to see my progress. Be warned, it's far from being completed.
tn5421 When he says it's far from being completed it's quite serious. It still looks nice despite the imperfections, though. Praise be unto the sen3.14
