Hello everyone, it's been a while since I've last played here and I just couldn't stand the incredibly bright forums anymore,
So I've been working on fixing that, now what you see is pretty early and should only be considered mock ups based on how messy my CSS is,
But I'm hoping to have a version others can use at some point too, anyway here is:


 

Here's a few example images.

Okay now that you've all had a chance to review my work and point out what I've utterly ruined in your opinion let me make some excuses.
Now firstly, this is a early version, not something I'd consider publishing so soon, not without testing some more.
And Secondly, I spent more time trying to get the bloody gifs uploaded than I did actually working on the styling.


Anyway, Please leave your feedback as I'm not entirely happy with it and would love some more input.
Thank you!

PS. Please check out the scroll bar compared to the normal one. it's such an easy thing to  change and I think it looks great.

If you are already going to make posts dark-moded , I think this box should be contrasted with the theme, too (the box where you type should be black and letters white, although I don't know how that will make other colors behave on a dark background).

All in all, everything looks excellent! Good work!

Thank you and yeah I've been considering what you're saying even before making this post so:


I'm personally not entirely  sold on it, but it  doesn't look bad.
