Title: [+++] Forum: Dark Theme
Post by: GoldNugget on 17 06, 2021, 01:35:38 pm
Original suggestion by Avices (https://cit.gg/index.php?topic=375471.0), but the topic got locked for not providing specific SMF theme.

I've searched for some dark themes to match CIT's SMF version and the only one which was elegant and simple enough was this theme (https://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=2365). Demo site (https://www.jpr62.com/demos/index.php?theme=55), to see the theme live.

It'd be cool if we had an option to choose the theme in the Look and Layout (https://cit.gg/index.php?action=profile;area=theme;) section.

+1. It would be nice, to choose which one theme you would like to apply, but what if add black with white contrasts, couse gold looks "too" gold? (Just my opinion)

I've searched for quite a while and the only proper dark theme I could find was this one. There are many, but most of them are too scuffed, bugged, unappealing, or simply not suitable for CIT. Ngl, gold is complementing with black pretty well.

Upvoting this of course, why we was forced to have this shit all white theme? Disturbing our sight/vision?  :fp:

For sure I will vote POSITIVE.

This new theme that "goldnugget" provided seems beatiful, it would be rly a good addiction to the forum, as I always emphasize we need more 1,000 suggestions like this one to make it more modern and not odd... things should improve not go worse.  :tick: :tick: :tick: :tick: :tick:

Honestly they have a bronze color and a dark mode background. really beautiful and I feel there is only one version of this that is suitable for CIT's SMF. We feel the forum's White background is too bright because people with poor eyesight also affect their eyes and if only we could Add a dark mode background to the mode part of the look and layout. and I thank @GoldNugget for finding a version that is quite consistent with the current CIT's SMF. and continue Doing Add Dark Mode to the forum. I support this suggestion :tick:

Dark themes are made to relax your eyes while doing anything on internet, I am supporting adding this on forum while it's already exist like you provided. Voting positive.

Well, as Violet said, "Dark themes are made to relax your eyes while doing anything on internet" I agree with that because I'm always have a dark theme in my pc just to relax and prevent a damage in my eyes and have a break and chill for my eyes  especially when we are doing something really important in computer, it might be helpful and cool if this will be added, Positive.

You realize this is optional right? You can have this default theme if you want. The dark one is a choice and not a must...

I'm supportive of this, a very big fan of dark mode in general.

I'm wondering how useless this suggestion is? and You can still choose white background or dark mode in the look and layout section and it doesn't change anything currently in the forum. and have you read all that in this thread and judge like that?

Idont agree with the idea cuz I like the forum's look it as it is, also Idont support the idea of making it look dark.
this forum is unique cuz Isee it as the only one that uses the non-dark color almost.
So Iguess my vote will be Negative.
(this my opinion, sorry :))
Good luck with other votes.

Dude let me explain this to you. The meaning is that the forum will default to the original but players can use the dark mode by simply clicking on the look and layout section and turning it into dark mode. And the forum will be the same as before and players will still be able to use the light mode background of the current forum. and one can use dark mode it doesn't affect the player who prefers to use white background. but in some players here are always affected by the light of the white background this is really annoying for them. We can still choose between light mode and dark mode

You're literally making yourself seem retarded with your reply. First off, as Danzy said it's optional, everyone would be able to change theme from their profile settings and second, it only takes 15 seconds to install the theme mod as an administrator.  :fp:

Themes are OPTIONAL... Everyone can change their themes in Look and Layout (https://cit.gg/index.php?action=profile;area=theme;) settings.



Before making assumptions, at least try to research not to look stupid.

Well, I'm a fan of the dark theme too and kinda everything is switching to dark theme Twitter, Snap, Discord.... Because it's really better than this shining white killing my eyes. So I'm going to upvote your suggestion  :tick: :thumb:

Supporting this. I like dark themes myself and more do like it too. giving variety when it comes to the forum is often limited and only  related to changing the looks, but never the color. I like dark themes and I'm using it in almost all applications that I use, so, it would be a bliss to have one on the forum when I'm online for hours daily.

Well, I am a fan of the dark theme like other people and almost using it everywhere, so the white theme isn't hurting my eyes, I was thinking about this dark theme suggestion but someone opened it so I am supporting this idea.

Ikr....
Imeant it'd be useless and Idont care if it was added or not ^^.
ucan say my vote is Neutral.

If you were going to vote neutral, then why you posted on this topic, that's kinda post-farm. I don't know if the ''neutral'' vote exists but it's better to vote positive or negative instead of ''neutral''

I agree, discord is the platform for most of the CIT players. group members hang out there, many stuff is there and the theme of discord is dark and it doesn't set out well with the forums. Forums has to compete with discord at some levels and dark theme would be useful, I always view forums at midnights and at nights so it'd be useful for me. Positive  :tick:
Title: Re: Forum: Dark Theme

You actually can change the web theme via settings also the old theme better NEGATIVE

 Actually, adding this will be fun, won't really affect us negatively, and I guess adding it won't be that hard for developer. And ngl, your theme looks great in this, but I hope this theme do something automatically for black color for example, which is used everywhere, and maybe converting it to white color. Nothing more to add, affirmatory positive .
Title: Re: Forum: Dark Theme
Post by: Babushka on 18 06, 2021, 01:28:01 pm
Yes Dark Theme should be added if that's possible. Since, Danzy also supporting this so maybe it's possible and would be convenient for night owls like me Positive  :tick:

Post by: Alpoal on 18 06, 2021, 02:17:33 pm
It will an optional theme and it will be good. I am bored of white themes anymore. I can't understand the why someones negative, this will be optional and there will be no harm to anyone. Also someone said you can change the web theme via settings. In settings may cause some bugs and problems on theme.

Positive  :tick:

That would be a great preference and my eyes will be thankful for that. But if it is possible to change that orange colour, it will be great because it will feel like I am in PH forum. Positive

Yes please, every app and website is offering a dark mode option nowadays and for good reason. If the implementation of this is simple I don't see a reason why we shouldn't have a dark theme that doesn't burn our eyes. Voting positive.

+1 because this white theme hurts my eyes and its actually not beautiful enough... but that theme that you revealed in the demo screenshots I didn't like them so much and the reason was that weird gold color.. if it was all in black... it would be awesome.
Title: Re: Forum: Dark Theme
Post by: GoldNugget on 19 06, 2021, 07:01:43 pm
you can change it via phone easy it will make the white black and the black white but idk about the pcs. And this suggest is useless since we already can change chrome or any web theme not the forum you should just focus on CIT Server futures

Do you realize you just farm posts without making any sense whatsoever? I'm already aware that you don't know English and couldn't understand what the fuck we're talking about, but at least try not to involve yourself into shit you don't understand for fuck sake...

Exactly this ^^

About the suggestion I'm voting positive because this is really annoying to see this all white themed rly ruin our sight vision, black is always better.  :tick:

You can change the theme only for Browser windows, not for all the web sites. If a website like this forum, is set for white background color, it would be white only unless there is an option by the developers to change the theme color. Example: YouTube

That is really hard to find a suitable theme for CIT because there are too many modification on this forum. So also need a suitable plug-in for that.

Making this into a theme would be nice, since my eyes adapted to the dark theme, and this amount of light sometimes hurt it, when I check on forums after I played a game which was dark, or using discord. Positive.

This was proposed many times, SMF  dont support such dark theme. Else if we switch it to something else, it will turn into a crappy version of our already good looking forum.

I tested the theme on xCode's forum and it doesn't have any bugs, also as I said countless fucking times, it's optional. There are people who rather have their eyes in normal condition than to adore forum's "beauty".
