I was hoping for a black BG but I do like this darker option. 

[dethrock]

Better, still not good. I'd call it a "less bright" than I would dark.

[Le Gogh]

Yeah I wouldn't call it "dark", it's just easier on the eyes. MUCH better though. I don't feel like I'm staring into the sun anymore!

 

Not a fan of the green, dark blue is definitely the way forward

 

Edit: Just noticed the alternating grey and white when scrolling through the thread titles. Definitely an improvement.

[rooks]

Any theme where the contrast between posts/threads/forums is noticeable and doesn't look like it's been left in the sun for a few years.

 

(The dark blue is on the right track, but still needs more.)

[HectorSRCVINYL]

I think we should make a BLACK theme with blood letters. a guy sacrificing a goat as a background 

[boops_popmarket]

For that neon green and light blue to not hurt your eyes, the background needs to be much darker...which then conflicts with the dark grey/black body text.  IMO, the easier solution is to just darken the neon green to a forest green or the blue to a darker blue.

The "dark" theme is what the "VC Blue/Green" theme should have been in the first place -- but even then, it's still way too bright IMO.

 

A dark theme should actually be, you know, dark:

Both "darker" colors still have the blinding gray/white borders - that is STILL a problem. I have looked at both darker options on PC and my Amazon Fire and frankly both are equal IMO. You need to darken the "post" and "title" areas. They are still blinding.

The dark theme should look something like this:

Exactly what I am talking about in my previous post. This is better on the eyes.

The "dark" theme should be default.

I second this color pallet

this is what I had in mind

[tape]

the greens you're using in both of those themes are way too light. actually, even the "dark" blue color is too light.

 

the Dark Blue theme is a good start overall though. it should definitely be the default.

[TheGhostOfRandySavage]

I agree with everyone so far.

[andy.]

Did the colors even change? Still looks the same to me.

[monsterrod]

100% Dark Blue

[Family Friendly Rap God]

This is a little better

[highfives]

Dark Blue is better, but you should really use the color as an accent color not a main read color.  So post titles should be black - bold when new content is available.  Pins, circles, stars, links, etc. should be the accent color.

[Kanellos]

SO MUCH BETTER. Thank you!

 

However, not really dark. I agree with everyone else. Would much rather prefer a theme like 4chan's Tomorrow theme in addition:

 

 

Also the thread index list font color for posts read needs to be darker. The light blue font is way too bright and blends together and less distinguishable than the new content posts even with the alternating grey and white bars.

Agreed as far as what dark blue really should be.

 

Look how cool it could be:

dark blue isnt really dark at all, but its the best of all options. the dark blue should be default and renamed to just blue, then a dark theme should be put in place of "dark blue".
