Blockland Light 3: The Redemption (userstyle)

you can turn ads off
why do you use ads

That was taken while signed out.
Like I said,

No one likes ads, but I had to point this out anyway

Bump for release.

Also, I'll just leave ads alone for now, I'll fix them later if they're so intrusive as to actually get in the way of the layout. I need a break.

can i request a version with a black and orange tone pls

Here, add this to your stylish extension and you're good.

[Ocelotus]

EDIT:

i tried all 3 BL lights at once

aside from the broken header the color scheme looks SUPER good.

Could you take a screenshot to clarify?

also, the post buttons don't appear.

[Kingdaro]

also, the post buttons don't appear.

That, I'm guessing has to do with the usage of negative margins, somehow. Or the lack thereof. Either way, I might figure it later. Might just be a simple display:; fix.

The post button issue is a non-Chrome thing. I'll add a note for that in the README.

Every time I navigate to a new page, I always see a glimpse of the previous style for a microsecond. Is this supposed to be? If not how fix?

I've done most of what I can to optimize the style, but this seems to be an issue with Stylish itself, unfortunately.

ungg its so lovey

I was hoping to see it a little more material design-esque, but this is alright. I'll give a few opinions.


I do agree that it's a little too bright, maybe make the shadows a little more prominent on the outside.

The table cell separation bothered me pretty bad so I had to set that to 0px right after I installed it.

The banner has that weird black bar on the bottom, maybe re-create it or just crop that part out.

I find it hard to see the difference between different posts, even when the table cells were separated.

The stats on the right side of the main forum navigation ("Hey, TheBlackParrot, you have ### messages") are a bit off. The top line is a couple of pixels too far to the left.

The quote buttons on posts stand out too much, they draw attention away from the post content.

Some parts of the forum aren't persistent width-wise (e.g. the main post wrapper and the headers/footers/etc.)

Maybe bold or increase the size of some main text elements? (breadcrumbs, board titles)


I can possibly mess around with the theme a bit and send you some stuff I changed if you want. I like the theme, everything just blends in way too much.

EDIT: you know rgba([0-255],[0-255],[0-255],[0-1]); is a thing right

Thanks for the feedback TBP. I'll address these options another time, but here are my thoughts.

I tried this, but it didn't seem to work that well with the cell separation. It might just be a hand-in-hand issue.

I'd say this is definitely an opinion / to each their own problem, as they look perfectly fine to me. I think it's neat how each topic row / post is sort of separated into its own... thing.

The banner has that weird black bar on the bottom, maybe re-create it or just crop that part out.
The black bar did seem a little weird but I pretty much got used to it after using the style for a while. That and cropping the image and leaving off the blockhead's body makes it look even weirder. It's possible a different banner altogether could be used.

I find it hard to see the difference between different posts, even when the table cells were separated.
Really? That's the entire reason the cells are separated. I actually did consider going with a lighter-darker alternating color scheme to help this, but I actually forgot to get around to it.

The stats on the right side of the main forum navigation ("Hey, TheBlackParrot, you have ### messages") are a bit off. The top line is a couple of pixels too far to the left.
I noticed that. I wasn't sure if I could fix that, since there's a space there. I have the option of getting rid of the extra text beside messages (kind of like how Blockland Metro does it) so I might go with that.

The quote buttons on posts stand out too much, they draw attention away from the post content.
May or may not agree with that one, I might need more opinions on this. Again, it seems fine to me.

Some parts of the forum aren't persistent width-wise (e.g. the main post wrapper and the headers/footers/etc.)
This is very true, and is somewhat of a difficult fix because of how the table elements work, but I didn't find it too distracting.

Maybe bold or increase the size of some main text elements? (breadcrumbs, board titles)
This is what the theme did before what it is now, where most of everything (if not everything period) is in a light font, and for some reason, the entire layout just looked too... well, 'heavy', for lack of a better word.

I can possibly mess around with the theme a bit and send you some stuff I changed if you want. I like the theme, everything just blends in way too much.

EDIT: you know rgba([0-255],[0-255],[0-255],[0-1]); is a thing right
My colors are from Google's material design spec, and the rest of the script basically alters these colors with darken(), lighten(), saturate(), etc. that the less language provides, so when it comes to the output, I'm not to concerned there. I just grab the hexes and forget with them. But if it makes style tweaks easier, it's fine enough for me to use rgba() instead.

Oh, and Dag,

also

I saw the image, but it didn't work in practice. Forgot to say that, lol.

[auzman466]

It is. I plan on looking into a solution.
