I still can't see the text, but flipping the switch on the top left changes the background to white, so that kind of fixes it for me.

Should the theme update itself or should I do it?

I'm using Firefox 21.0

I have updated both version of the theme and i also have checked with firefox 21.0 and there is no problem with it. On Chrome the theme updates itself when you start chrome but on FireFox it should be the same but try manually update it :)

Minor fixes and added support for the mobile version of the site. So now you can use the style on you Android phone using firefox :D

The text editor needs a black background otherwise it stands out like a sore thumb.

That looks nice! I just don't like dark-themed forums 'cause they generally tend to be less nice (usefulness wise). Idk why, it just happens.

[That Norwegian Guy]

Oh FFS, I've been scratching my head on how to change to "the dark theme" everyone is referring to today and I've got to use a fail browser to do it? No thanks.

 

Opera for life.

 

Admins should prioritize the official one, it's the most requested feature here. And make it the default.

 

Edit: just spotted the local CSS for Opera, but there should still be an official dark theme.

 

Edit 2: looks nice, but IMO it would make more sense to make the text fields charcoal and the frames black rather than the other way around. But that's nit picking. The lime green elements don't look good in this theme either.

Nice job so far

Okey, try these steps

1. After installed stylish click on the "S" icon in the top left corner
2. Then choose "Manage" and in the search box search for "linustechtips" 
3. Done :) 

(Sorry, I don't use safari. Just installed it to test it out :P)

So its not a native theme built into the forum its a skin? Does it cause more bugs?
