Suggestion: Black CB theme

[Ryzza5]

For those late-night chat sessions where your eyes are burning it would be great to have a dark theme (just need to find a way to change black text into white):

 

 

 

I'll pay you $15 to make it happen Diablo :p

Actually, that is a good idea. :hmmm: Maybe not pitch black, but a darker colour would definitely be nice.

Looks like one of those garbo irc chats.

[T1M]

How about a "Lights Off" button like YT has/used to have. :p

[The Compensator]

Nice idea, but a color that is lighter than black would be better. :D

[Eudemon]

I'll look into a toggle option or a selectable option for this before the end of 2014.

I'll look into a toggle option or a selectable option for this before the end of 4102.

 

Fixed.

What do you mean 'actually'? :toetap:

The pay-rate drops $2 each month it takes you, so by then you'd be owing me :p

Not a bad idea, I reckon really dark grey.

... before the end of 2014.

 

What're you, an employee of Atari?

[Eudemon]

No, as I sometimes keep my promises. :D

[Ryzza5]

What promises have you made? :think:

[MephistoRacing]

There should be a selectable darkish theme for the whole board, that way we could actually read all those old posts without ctrl+A ;D

Since we can't wait until 4102, why not just use what I use? Works lovely and does roughly the same thing without looking awful in the process.

Friendly reminder that you've only got a year to go ;)

Cactus' Flux software suggestion has actually made an awesome difference to late night PC usage!

Takes about a week to get used to the colour-change but if you're using the PC every night and not doing colour work (web, photoshop, video editing, etc) it really is amazing - and it'll help you get to sleep quicker too. Really does take the sting out of the bright white areas of the screen.

I don't necessarily see the need to have this, I just turn down the brightness on my phone/laptop in this kinda situation.

Is that this one? f.lux: software to make your life better

 

Brilliant piece of software. I've been using it for over a year now and never get a headache no matter how long I spend looking at a TV/monitor. Used to get tired eyes and headaches before I used this. But I do have it set to a max of 4000K during the day and about 2500K at night with it gradually increasing/decreasing on its own depending on the time of day and year.

On my office PC I have it in orange mode 24/7 - only close it if I'm doing colour work.

Right. :hmmm:

 

 

Yeah I used to use flux, it's a good piece of kit but it eventually started getting on my nerves so I was turning it off all the time. Haven't even bothered installing it on my new PC. :hmmm:

[Eudemon]

Oh damn. :lol:
