Black background

[Compaq]

On several occasions I have visited the Range Finder Forum, only to come back here and almost blind myself on the white background. I must say, the black site with white letters are very pleasing to look at, and makes reading easier on the eyes.

You don't have the official TPF sunglasses - you know, the ones that put a vignette on everything?

I use this:

thephotoforum themes and skins - userstyles.org

which I wrote. It works with Chrome and Firefox, so if you're browsing with something else.. sorry.

And you even gave me a hat tip for it??? (the link to my site includes a comma that prevents it from going there, but a nice gesture anyway) Dude, if you keep this up, we're going to end up pals or something!! LOL!

Just installed it. Looks pretty good from here - much easier on the eyes than that bright white field. Much appreciated. Now give us the charcoal gray version next!!

It was your idea, basically! I just said to myself 'ya know, there's gotta be a way to actually DO it, and wouldn't that be nice?' and then I started tinkering.

As for changing the color scheme from where it is, every so often I give it a try but I just cannot manage to get a light-text on dark-background look to come together without it looking horrible on some pages. TPF has a bunch of embedded image files for parts of the backgrounds that fix certain colors in place. This was the best compromise I've been able to come up with.

They're pretty easy to edit, and you can always revert back!

I fund just the opposite. To read a site that's white on black, I copy everything and paste it in to a word doc so I can read it.

I just took it for a spin through some of the themes threads, and what a positive change it made to my viewing experience! Again, well done!

Thanks, this made reading easier for me!
