New Runouw Theme

Postby Bogdan » July 6th, 2015, 1:56 pm

For those who want alternatives, here is a topic about user styles. In order to use them, please go and download the Stylish Plugin in your browser's addon center. All browsers should have it.

Current themes:

The topic may be updated or not, depending on my mood, please give feedback to the authors or see if they are willing to take requests. You can also contribute by creating your own CSS and uploading it to Stylish's database. Post it in the topic and I shall add it to the list. You can start by editing already existing CSS files.

Current changelog 20/DEC/2015:
  • Created Runouwinter theme
  • Changed Icons and link colours in Carbon Runouw


The following spoiler contains old thread info.
Old Topic: show
Greetings citizens. Last night I made a new theme for Runouw forums, which makes the forum look overall darker. If you're interested in using it, download it here: Dark Runouw
Note: it requires you to install the Stylish plugin. It one click away in Addons page or how do you call it, search it up.

What it does:
  • Changes the page and header background with a dark-grey colour.
  • Forum headers have a gradient-green background
  • Forum boxes are grayish-green
  • Overall, most stuff besides link are dark grayish

Tested on both Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome and it works perfectly. However if you do find a bug tell me. Keep in mind certain things are changed from the Site CP, so it may mess up the theme a little (or not).

I updated the style this morning so it doesn't look that horrible. You may need to re-download.

welp, that's a matter of taste ... I think it's fine the way it is now, except from maybe the green topic titles being a tad bit too dark, or they could be made blue, exactly like the "Post a reply" words within the "Post reply" window.

Thank you, FF.

Rating standards: show
1 star: (0 - 5.75 in LDC) These levels need a lot of work. They're totally un-elaborated, and/or inherently flawed due to things like cutoff or enemy spam, or they're untested and there are too many bugs gameplay-wise, in short: Many many things went wrong in such a level.

2 stars: (6 - 9.75) These levels are not terrible, but poor. They're too short, lack scenery or they have errors and/or bugs but it's still barely enjoyable. Again, spend more effort and try to do better. (if it's your first level that I rate two stars, it's not bad. There's a long way you can still go)

3 stars: (10 - 12.75) These levels are about mediocre. They may be still a little bit short, the gameplay is fine but not very original and graphics are also solid, but not breath-taking. Try to keep improving!

4 stars: (13 - 15) These levels are nice, but not the best. Effort has been put into them, there can some professionality be seen in gameplay and graphics, they're a nice experience to play, but there are still things you can do to make it even better. Try to go the extra mile!

5 stars: (15.25 - 20) These are really great levels, those which, as said, I would give more than 15 in an LDC. These suffice many high requirements, and it already goes into subtleties if you want to make them better. These levels are successful all around. Bravo.

These are just general principles I try to follow when rating. Sometimes I don't leave a further comment when rating, most times I do, if you have questions about it, feel free to ask further.

I like it, but I think some of the greys (in the background mostly) are a bit too bright and clash with the rest of the dark colours. But otherwise it's pretty good.

I got bored and made a puny 3-line edit to make the background much darker. It could probably be optimized but I don't know much CSS and I don't have time to learn it at the moment so I just changed the background so it wasn't as blindingly bright. I felt like this didn't deserve its own topic so I'm just posting it here.

there's honestly something wrong with you guys' eyes if this background is "blindingly bright"

I kinda like the light-blue background and it's a nice contrast to the grey. I wouldn't prefer everything being so dark.

I don't mind either way tbh, the blue is nice, but so is the darker theme. Realistically though I think the blue will probably stay.

Thing is I did this back when Runouw had the ugly (no offence) Runouwlympics theme all over the site, which was a little bit bright and also bothered my eye just to look at it. The blue background is pretty cool to me too.

Shad did one thing, Shad did another thing

I plagiarized most of Shad's code and tweaked a few things to create this and holy ♥♥♥♥ https://userstyles.org/styles/121511/runouw-somber-aero (Screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/AzNuK)

May or may not make a lighter version in the near future? Raz said that the transparency on the index page bothers him

K, so what I essentially did for Solemn, fyi, was take the old script that Bog used, and tweaked it as much as I could to fit a dark and kind of techy feel. The intent is to go grey/blue while still be visually appealing.

Aero, on the other hand, was coded by hand, based off the front page's appearance. The scrollbar feature was added for Mozilla and Chrome users, and gradients are used for the background(and header soon)
