I wish this forum had a darker theme

[smokequitterv2]

Not too dark , But just a bit more darker color themes like the simple machine forum default ?

That's not the darker I imagined, but it does seem consistent.

What's that? If the whites are too much and you use W10 you can set up the 'Night Light' (Type that in the taskbarsearch box) andyou can add more amber to it to make lit ess glaring or you can get F-Lux which will do the same. Their main function is to reduce the screen's blue light which can mess up your sleep patterns when you look at your screen at night because your brain still thinks it''s daylight.. I always have some amber mixed in in the daytime... easier on my eyes.

OK , Maybe this is a bad idea

Some forums have options where users can select theme , but cannot find such an option in this forum

Yea , Its just a bit too white

Is there anything you know of that can be used on an iPhone? I use the Reader View on sites where it’s available but this is the site I’m viewing most often and it’s not.

Thanks.

You should have something called 'Night Shift' on there.

If you've got iPhone 8 or higher there is True Tone as well which will adjust for the ambient light: https://www.imore.com/true-tone

Or you can Google 'iphone change colour temperature' for other possibilities. Redder is lower temperature and bluer is higher.

Thanks String Junky.

I’ve altered it now. I did come across the setting before at some point but must have forgotten about it.

Cool. You might get better sleep now instead of feeling spaced out when you get off the phone.

That would certainly be welcomed.

If anyone is using Linux, Mac or Android you can use F-Lux on those  if you want the ability to warm up your screen atnight or in the day as well..

Oh....ya mean theme as in screen settings and the forum's template appearance!

When I initially read your OP title I thought you were advocating that we begin addressing darker issues, as in more edgy, controversial, and potentially depressing. Gothic? Maybe like supernatural or paranormal stuff. LOL. Can't see any o' dat woo flying here. But I reckon we do have the Lounge, eh?

My wife is on a couple of those paranormal sites. I checked em out once in awhile. Decent entertainment at times. And I can't explain why but it's somehow refreshing to read all these believers in that stuff. They're a friendly bunch. And no unremitting thread of arrogance as I see here. It's the first part of this site. The unrelenting propensity of some of these cats to let you know they know more than you. But I digress.

Cheers.
