I'd like to clarify that SONM didn't use default prosilver, I'm not that much of a monster

You might not be, but Gecko is the sort of monster that loves ProSilver. :dread:

While I was at it I enabled the default phpBB 3 theme ProSilver... which is basically better. May as well give people the option to use it.

NB: The FalseyNoFun board style will always retain the default logo.

Subsilver for me as that layout requires the least physical effort for me to navigate.

The default is almost unusable and I probably wouldn't post much if I was forced to use it .

Are their any improvements to sub that would make it better, or what would make responsive better, I can promise to sort it all but I will give it a go to make you an Ironhide Certified TM version.

I use prosilver, but only because I'm too lazy to write a dark CSS theme for GResponsive.

Stole this off userstyles.org because I'm ethically opposed to light themes.

Using GResponsive right now.

I'd personally like to see a dark theme, to be honest. I'm not much of a fan of light themes.

I like that. Dark Themes are the best themes.

I wrote a dark theme for GResponsive and put it online if anyone else wants to use it.

Just click "Install Style". It will say "Install with Stylish" and prompt you to install the Stylish extension if you don't have it.

GRcade Dark

It's kinda ugly, and I haven't finished it yet, but at least it saves my retinas.

GResponsive, because I wasn't aware there were other options. I'm used to this one now though, so I'm probably not going to change.

Karl and I used to write user styles for Gamesradar to remove the massive ads and bizarre switch to bright purple links, and I used to build websites entirely in negative. Now Evil Ted is writing user styles for our own implementation of essentially Gamesradar to put it in negative, and now I use mostly pastels and block colour in design. How things change in 15 years.

Anyway one thing I can easily do to help is fix the alpha channel on the default logo.

Thanks. I couldn't just change it myself without breaking the commemorative logos we have.

When ONM first closed in 2009 and merged with CVG, I wrote/adapted a style for that, too. Future's bizarre decision back then was to fit the forum into a tiny, left-aligned, fixed-width column about 600 pixels wide.

Yeah they also limited the fixed width of the GR forum to fit giant vertical ads

I selected pro silver by accident, and use the default grresponsive!

Aka near enough the optimal width for reading normal sized text
