A dark theme for LinusTechTips

Stylish are having problems with their server.

Please look at the first post on page 10 (Auto update, post #181) and follow the instructions :)

 

It worked, my eyes thank you.

 

 P.S.  Wouldn't it be better to update the first post rather than place it on a random page? Just a thought.

Looks much better than the standard dark theme in the pic, which theme would your recommend for those who browse on a portrait monitor?

I don't have an "edit site preferences" when I right click in opera

 

did some googling and apparently pressing F12 is supposed to bring up quick preferences, part of which is supposed to be edit site preferences, but nothing happens when I press F12... also tried holding F12 and right clicking..

 

hepl please   :blush:

I'm pretty sure that the new Opera 12.10 is based on chromium so just follow these steps below :)

  1. Install Stylish extension here
  2. After installing it a icon with an 'S' on it should appear in the top right corner
  3. Go here Choose theme format and install it
  4. Done :)

I would go with the theme without width :)

I have updated the instructions for Opera users. So now it's the same instructions as FireFox and Chrome :)

Hi, recently i have been working on a dark theme for LinusTechTips.

Please leave feedback and if you find something weird post it on the thread. :) 

 

I have posted the .css on GitHub so feel free to make some Pull Requests

https://github.com/Gimbergsson/LTT_Dark_Theme

 

In the spoiler below is a screenshot of the theme (it's on Google chrome).

linus_scr.jpg

 

*I recommend to use the "Original theme" for larger screen sizes and the "Theme without width restrictions" on smaller screen sizes (such as laptops).

 

**IMPORTANT**

You need to have the site theme on "IP.BOARD" not "Day Theme" or "IP.BOARD MOBILE"

 

Instructions

**Link below to Auto-Update instructions.**

Click this for Auto-update!

 

Instructions for Chrome, FireFox and Opera!

 

Instructions for Safari[1]

  • Download stylish for Safari and install it
  • After installed stylish click on the "S" icon in the top left corner
  • Then choose "Manage" and in the search box search for "linustechtips"
  • Done

 

Instructions for Firefox on Android

  • Download FireFox for your android device http://goo.gl/oe1ZJ
  • Just follow the same instructions as Chrome and FireFox :D BUT CHOOSE THE THEME WITHOUT WIDTH RESTRICTIONS

Change logo

[1] - Works on both Windows and Mac.

 

I use the Dark theme that is built in.

Hey guys, I have updated the theme to work with the front page beta! But expect some weird stuff because they may update the page and the articles isn't finished yet  :P

And I appreciate some feedback! :D

Wow this is pretty rad! Thanks! I definitely prefer the dark look as opposed to white for days.

You mean stuff like this may happen? (the text box is now black and I can't read what I'm writing)

 

Up until this point this theme has been 100% gold, I love using it and without it I probably wouldn't be a member here.

There's been a dark theme for months now.

Specs are on my profile page
