This could scare brokeloser to death.

Actually one more thing LOL as sorry I had to go there but the lightbulb at the top is confusing me because I keep thinking that's my notification icon and I see that you have an option to change the style at the bottom of the screen. I could get use to it though but I was just curious why it's up there if there's already an option at the bottom to change it?

You can use the V2 with Dark Reader add-on.

Dark mode is broken. Stopped working for some reason.

Mine is working fine.
Everyone has had to reset to the new dark after the update. Select through the style selector at bottom of page.

I tried resetting several times. Not working on my end.

I tried resetting several times. last night but it didn't work. But I just now gave it another shot and it's back to normal.

What is broken? What skin are you on? What happens if you click the lightbulb in the navbar?

I like! Recently I had a medical emergency with eyes which resulted in migraines. I couldn’t (and still have a problem) looking at anything bright.
Thanks!

I've added an additional version of the Dark skin that uses the Iosevka font. I like this font for it's readability and ease on the eyes. It is used by some programmers. You can learn more about the font here: Iosevka

I'm pretty much doing this entirely for myself since I prefer this font. I will not be adding additional skins for font requests

I'm loving the dark theme. My eyes thank you

I like USMB Old "v2" so that's what I use.

I dislike round avatars. It sends my OCD into overdrive.

Plus with the white background that USMB Old "v2" has, everything doesn't look so staggered.

On the dark theme, you can see how everything is staggered. It stands out. Annoying...

Plus I don't like the colors of the dark theme.

But to each their own.

Woah.... I could get use to this...

That's a good point. The prior version of Dark Mode used to show full avatars. I liked that feature since some avatars get cropped in an unfortunate way, like elchorizo 's text at the bottom of his...

All I see is your eyeball and it's kinda freaking me out.

 

[elchorizo]

I'm not a fan of round avatars either, so I've disabled that in the dark skin as well.

Um, the Dark mode just got messed up (contrast is hosed), and the avatars are back to round.

Looks fine to me... What just got messed up? Screenshots with a description would be helpful.

As I said, the contrast used to be greater. See below. It's gray on black. Hard on the old eyes. We discussed this before, and I even tipped you for increasing it.


Screenshot of light gray font on dark gray background that looks fine to you...

However, when you are composing a message, the contrast is fine. See...
(Screenshot below of compose window, which looks fine to me...)

Thanks for putting the avatars back to square.

When I logged on it was back to a white screen, but I found the dark skin before I was blinded by the light.
