Help me recolour the forum

[Mayne]

Anyway I can turn down the brightness? I am using firefox.

Might be a Greasemonkey script. You need the Greasemonkey addon and then Google greasemonkey scripts and search for XenForo. Just be aware that scripts could be made with malicious intent.

 

[Mayne]

that sounds a little risky. Thanks though

 

[Carson Dyle]

Not script. CSS.

It can be, but I have used various scripts for I think about ten years now and no issues. I scan the code for anything that might stick out.

That looks promising, but may have a learning curve.

 

[Carson Dyle]

Definitely a learning curve to CSS. Here's what I've come up with so far. Kill ads. Kill the right column. Kill the animated green beacon. Change some spacing. Slightly darker gray. Dark page background. Square avatars. Some other stuff on the forum list page.

There's several quicky addons for firefox, and they give varying degrees of control. They'll work to make things darker *now*, but stylish and time is the way to do it right.

I'm using this for firefox android...

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/darkenbackground/

It's a global style, and it just takes the edge off bright backgrounds. For sites I frequent, I prefer a specific style either found, or that I create, but this helps with nasty bright surprises.

My background here is a medium cream. I'd show you, but I'm not sure how to get a screenshot of the browser window.

 

[Mayne]

Okay, I installed Color Transform. seems to have helped a bit on the brightness..simple to use.

It definitely works, but I don't know how to access the functions of it...no icon where my addons are. I guess I could get used to this cream colour.

I have a sudden craving for white chocolate

Try clicking on the addon in your addons menu. Then play around with the different settings. It's not my favorite way to recolor sites, but it works. Anything is better than a white background.

 

[Mayne]

okay Ixskllr

well here's a screenshot. It's something.

 

[John Connor]

Nice. I had to change the install.rdf min and max to make it work in PaleMoon.

 

[John Connor]

okay Ixskllr

Go to tools addons and you will find the addon with the options button.

 

[Mayne]

yeah I'm fiddling with it right now.

Dark Reader is better than nothing atm in Chrome, anyone find anything else?
