New Dark Style Added!

[Julian]

By popular demand we have added a dark style today (while also crashing the server in the process! whoops).

The new dark style is available in the bottom left of your screen. You will see the below if you are using the default style (perhaps it might say Wide Style if you've switched to that). You can also just CLICK HERE and it will take you right to the dialogue box below.



Click on the above text (or the link) and you will see the following:



If you click on "Shades of Grey......", it will switch your UI over to the dark style. You can switch back and forth at any time.

The Blue/White Wide Style just eliminates any extra space on wide screens. (the dark style is based on this so also eliminates extra spaces).

Please let me know if you see anything wrong with this style.

I am trying it out for a while.....my droid just implement some dark styles and I'm getting used to them. I think it is much easier on the eyes....but takes getting used to.

Now the site matches the color scheme on my development software. They won't be able to see the reflection of JB.net in my glasses from the hallway.

I really like the new option. My wife will really like it too when I can’t sleep and hit the forum in the middle of the night. The iPad dimmed down is never enough. Thanks!

Just a heads up.....learned today that the new style colors internal vs external links differently. Internal links are Yellow, while external links are blue. See my signature for examples. Most of the links are Yellow, but the link to our FB page is Blue. The Standard white style does not differentiate.

Yes! Thank you! Dark mode is awesome.
