    Theres a button on the lower left next to the Clutchfans Dark Option. Its the one with the two diagonal arrows touching each other in the middle.

    Clutch... how fat would I need to make the tip jar to have the default Texans forum theme be "deep steel" blue instead of "liberty-scorch-your-retinas" white?

    :D

    Yeah, but that "Username, time posted" below the text of the post has got to go. Unnecessary. Clutter.

    They are one and the same. The new bbs is adaptive.

    With the new format on the updated site, the dark theme works waaay better for me on mobile.

    I never was a fan of it before.

    Thank you, Clutch and Crew! The light version is too difficult for my old eyes to read. The dark side is a force in and of itself.

    Much better. I can now tell where the sigs start. That dotted line was hard to see.

    I really appreciate the dark theme. Once I started using it, no longer could I go back to the original. But I find that Clutchfans Original is applied with a better scheme of color distinction in some areas than Clutchfans Dark. It's most discernible (or rather indiscernible) when viewing poll results as seen above and, also, selecting or highlighting text to paste or search. I remember someone addressed this issue before.

    (a random color chart I found on a quick google search just so I can refer to colors by names.)

    In the dark theme, 'RAL 9005 Jet Black' (for graph bars or highlights) is fighting an uphill battle against 'RAL 9004 Signal Black' (for dark theme background) to be noticed by viewers.

    How about coloring graph bars and highlighted text areas with something like 'RAL 9023 Pearl Dark Grey' or 'RAL 9007 Grey Aluminium'? Something brighter like them would work better (than the current 'RAL 9005 Jet Black') with both dark and original backgrounds.


    In any case, I can't say enough how much I appreciate what you've done and do with this board. Thanks, Clutch, as usual.

    How do I make the Houston Texans forum area in the dark theme? I noticed the screen becomes white over there, but when I go back to lets say rockets or nab dish, the site goes back to the dark theme. Is this a bug?

    Is there anything we can do about the gray search box on the red banner across the top? It's such an eye sore on an otherwise very nice looking theme.

    I was thinking something like this, but with white placeholder text (I couldn't figure out how to change it in my browser).

    I like the dark theme on my phone but not on my desktop. Is there any way to have different themes for mobile and desktop?
