Hello Darkness my old friend
« on: March 18, 2021, 11:26:38 am »
Not sure if I'm getting old, but I've loved Dark Themes and dark settings for literally decades.

But recently - not sure if it's down to the lock-ins and everything, but Dark Themes are getting me down.

I recently changed my personal computers and work computers to pastel nice shades and it's making me feel a lot happier.


I imagine that once going to the game, pubs, cinemas and karaoke is back on them menu then I'll be good to go :)


Anyone for a pastel update to RAWK?!

:D

They both went in high, that's factually correct, both tried to play the ball at height.  Doku with his foot, Mac Allister with his chest.

I always pick whichever theme is less likely to draw attention when I'm at work.

I use Dark reader for Firefox to make Rawk dark!

Life is dark. So I make my tech things dark too..

I'd give pastel a go. But white hurts my eyes!

Edit: see!

Always use light themes, not a fan of dark ones for anything.

I thought I'd bring a ray of light to the dark souls in this thread instead.

Check out Madonna here! ;D

Seriously I do think all apps, all games, and all websites should cater for both. It is the time! We now have the technology and ability to suit everyone.

Just call it accessibility. Mind you. I wouldn't wanna be the one tasked with making Rawk a dark theme. (then again... )

I much, much prefer light themes for being easier for the eyes.

I tried to make RAWK dark, but the Shanks overlay always screws it up
