Greasemonkey Scripts For vB: Now With A "I Can't Believe It's Not Fusetalk" Script

I actually reversed the colors used here. The "Visited" color is darker and makes it look bolded so those stand out more than the normal color. I switched is so they look bold/dark by default and go lighter when they are read. Just seemed to make more sense.

What did you do? Change this
Code:
"a:link{color:#588BBE;} a:visited{color:darkblue;}"
to this?
Code:
"a:link{color:darkblue;} a:visited{color:#588BBE;}"
And never mind the color change with this script, why are some thread titles bolded & some aren't? I can't see any rhyme or reason for that. 😕
 
Yes that's what I did and the bolded ones I think are new since your last visit. Or at least updated since your last visit.
 
I think I'm doing something wrong. I've got IE 8 and installed gm4ie.

I saved the .js files for the four vB user scripts in the \GM4IE\scripts\ folder:

I then updated the extension.list file in the \GM4IE\ folder:

All the vB scripts are shown in GM4IE, yet none of them work (except the pre-loaded Google scripts).

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks, daw123

P.S. I'm a noob at this greasemonkey stuff, so apologies if its an obvious cock up on my part.

Edit: I did stop and start GM4IE and IE, but that didn't do anything.

Can one of you guys make an alternating Greasemonkey or Stylish script? Just something that makes the background of every other thread a little darker.
 
nice both of those work great, IMO for the dark theme the color for the already read threads should be orange like it used to be with the dark theme

Yea I knew it didn't look right, I updated it to have visited links as orange.

I've got alternating colors code at the bottom of the dark theme script. You'll have to uncomment it and change the colors to what you want though.

You, sir, are awesome.

I wish that meant something to me, I really do 😛
 
Would it be possible to change that so it uses the whole width of the screen? Right now its only used half the width of my widescreen monitor.

Open the style and delete or comment out these two lines under /* -- Forum -- */
Code:
body>div[align='center']>div[class='page'] { max-width:1200px!important; }
pre[class='alt2'] { max-width:595px!important; }
 
I've been working on a style-changing script too, but instead of looking forward to something new, this one looks back to FuseTalk. I changed just about everything I thought was practical; although I'm planning to look at hg403's scripts in more detail later. And I hope it doesn't break anything. 🙂
