theme warning - gorzek - 02-06-2025

Just to give everybody a heads-up: maintaining multiple themes here suuuuuuuuuuucks. So, my intention is to either find a single theme that has light and dark modes, works decently on mobile, etc. and focus on that, or a theme that comes in light/dark versions and, likewise. That way, I don't have to come up with novel changes for each theme whenever I want to add a feature that isn't baked into a plugin, or make slight visual adjustments.

I still want to have a silly Y2K theme but that might have to wait.

Completely understandable!


RE: theme warning - gorzek - 02-09-2025

It is done. The current theme checks all my boxes:
  • Default-ish (nothing too outlandish)
  • Looks decent on mobile
  • Built in light/dark modes

I will gladly take suggestions on ways to improve this theme but I think this is the one we'll go forward with, so I can focus customization efforts here.

I did a lot of finessing the templates to make this look better, particularly on mobile (and in the Portal view.) But if you see anything particularly bothersome, please let me know. I can fix pretty much anything.

I'm getting slight Frutiger aero vibes with this theme. I dig it.


RE: theme warning - gorzek - 02-11-2025

Hell yeah. We're living in 2003, baby.


RE: theme warning - ScottyMcGee - 02-13-2025

Is it just me or are all our avatars a bit squished since the change? Like the ratio is off.


RE: theme warning - gorzek - 02-13-2025

It's not just you. I'll log a ticket for that, I'm sure it's not hard to fix.
