Potentially game changing info on new look/format

[Tenacious E]

Stole this info from the lounge. You can go to your preferences and toggle from light mode to dark mode, where the background is black and the font is white. Looks so much better with the font.

My signature looks MUCH better in dark mode.

My signature looks MUCH better in dark mode.

No idea who has what signature as I turned them off over 10 years ago because I didn't want my family seeing a bunch of weird shit thinking I was surfing porn around them.

white for me

no racist

For the graphic design specialists out there, isn’t lighter text over a darker background always a no-no? Harder to read and causes eye strain?

Nerd out.

Another tidbit in that thread is that in the lower left corner there are two arrows pointing at each other. It allows you to toggle how wide the threads are on the screen.

That's not how this works. Black backgrounds matter. Prejudiced.

Much better, way to go

Always? no. It can have great visual effects. You just need to be cautious about your registration in printing, but there is white text on dark background everwhere in everyday life. In fact, it's easier to read street signs with a dark green background than reading black text on a white sign.

The black format is MUCH easier on my eyes.

My iPhone changes this way automatically according to the hour of the day. I hate it when it switched over to dark mode.

It means you are legally consenting to a sexual liaison.

 

[ConvenientParking]

I've thought it should be the default for all websites (dark background/light text) ever since I was 12 or 13 and found maddox.xmission.com

I am confused on the whole angry/double hearts like thing.

Meh.

Post back when they add "Hawk Mode", and you can make it black background/gold letters.

Once you go black........

Once you go black........

Damn straight. I've had a couple black girlfriends (cue the Porno For Pyro's song). Awesome ladies.

CSB time. Early 80's, drunken friends and I are in a Country Kitchen eating breakfast about 2am. Beautiful black lady is our waitress, takes our order. As she's walking away, a friend goes "I wouldn't mind having some dark meat for breakfast."

Waitress hears this, turns, and says "have you tried duck?"

Every time she came back to the table, she called my friend "Duckie" 😁

I'm not seeing these. Dang.

I don't think they show up on an ipad or iphone, if you are accessing it via mobile device.
