I guess there is some way to change this black-gray background, to be more office friendly, when you have to stare white-bright stuff all day, and switching to forums when you have some free seconds. Switching dark-bright kill my eyes very well Sad

Thank you for any advice.

AFAIK there's no way to do it. And yes, primarily browse forums at work rather than at home.

The "Caldari" forums skin is probably the closest you get to something "bright".

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

Can you tell me more about that? Google does not give the answer to what it is.

It's only about changing the forum background. It won't do a lot, but give it a try.

Use a greasemonkey script to change the colour values?

It's not massively complicated as scripts go.

Uhm you should change all the other black on white crap to white on black actually, and keep this forum the way it is, if you're worried about your eyes...

(I seriously hate that the standard became black on white... I hate whoever came up with that with all my heart)
It used to be different in the old days.. back then it was almost always white or green text on a black background (DOS for example)

Greasemonkey seems to be the right choice, just need to tweak with it a little.

Thank you.

Use a smartphone, although this forum is terrible to browse on anything other than a desktop.

The forums aren't too bad on my S4, although that's probably owing to the screen size. However if these forums were tapatalk enabled that would be excellent.

With a browser.





…and custom CSS and javascript, same as at home (since it's the same computer).
