    Being colour blind, and only having Light colours blending with everything. Makes this site. VERY Unfriendly. Its a hastle to read some of the stuff on the site. The only one that is semi decent is autumn. Why dont you have a dark coloured theme?

    We used to have a Changeling theme that would have suited your needs, but it was lost to the void after a series of server errors scrambled things up.

    - Anything we can do for him? Is the old Hive theme still functional at all?

    If it is needed I can re-enable it but I can't promise everything will be as complete as the rest of the themes

    Well, crap. That's not much better. I know we had a dark, high-contrast theme at one point, because I used it for night browsing. I thought it was Hive, but I guess not.

    Being colorblind myself, I find all the themes pretty easy to read, so long as people don't use colored font. Maybe you're more severe than me.
    That, or you're just making excuses to request a darker theme. /sarcasm

    Black on sky blue is a heck of a contrast, eh?

    The lighter colours. Brohoof, Edit. Stuff like that. Actually hurts to read and makes it incredibly inconvienient.

    Well, that should be an easy fix. Maybe something in the settings where you can darken all those icons.
    Admins? I have an idea!

    Also, slapping it into the settings will make it easier to fix, but not ultimately fix it for newbs.

    All newbs would have to do is explore their user CPs, or ask about it.

    To note, adding a feature that allows themes on themes like you seem to be suggesting isn't possible with my current skill set, I wouldn't know of any way to apply something like that but since Xenforo (the software we use) is very common I can look for an addon that might do just that.

    Hmm, the Hive theme is very broken, there was a reason it was disabled. But tell me how re the colors on your eyes, is it easier, I'm kind of on a break due to stress but when I decide to begin work on stuff again I can fix it up.

    The light blue colours are nearly not there for me. It seems every combinatiom you guys have, it just, doesnt make it any better.
