R2R needs a dark theme!

Instigate · Jan 1, 2019

R2R needs a dark theme imo. All this bright white background is killing me at night! I'm not suggesting you change the theme of the site but allow users to choose a theme that they see the forum in. Like d2jsp.com if you happen to be familiar with that forum.

Good idea

When we go to the new theme we will work on a dark version as well.

Nice! Good to hear.

I 100% agree

Rockit · Jan 4, 2019

Absolutely agree.
Black background and light colored lettering is so much easier on the eyes for me.
Pirate4x4.com has always been my preferred color theme.

Go to settings and change to night mode

Maybe something like the original theme colors from 2006?

Tapatalk dark mode works well on phone, different than in browser but I prefer it

There is no night mode on r2r currently as far as I know. Must be thinking of Tapatalk?

Never heard of preventive maintenance huh? Maybe you missed it but I'm not suggesting changing the default theme, just suggesting there could be options like some other forums offer.

I've never tried that application, but 90% of the time I'm on r2r, I'm on a PC.

Is this dark theme something that is available yet? I am new so still learning how to use the sight. But I am a major yes for a dark mode.

If you are on the app you can go to settings and click night reading mode.

Just found the new dark theme by accident a couple days ago. Hopped online and went to click the search button and hit the new light bulb instead. This is so much better. My eyes don't hurt reading on the white page anymore. Whoever is responsible you are AWESOME!!!

OMG!, I must've clicked it by mistake... I thought the White background was a new thing and like the originator said, it was killing me at night.

Back to dark mode Yey!!!
