Re: New Forum Themes/Styles Feedback

Are you mostly referring to the extra space/border around the message boxes? I think the compactness of the menus and pagination for Prosilver in mobile is most appreciated on my end. It makes it so you can not only see both of those messages, but the full header above it. Also talking about when y...

Re: New Forum Themes/Styles Feedback

Tested out Milk on mobile and it is WAY too spacious. I like “white space” because it lets things breathe, but mobile Milk overdoes it greatly. The information density is just way too low.

Re: Genre of the Month (MAY 2024 TR) - Really Rad Racers

I would like to point out that the Dreamcast is an underrated racing monster. Sure, the two closest games it had to Gran Tourismo were Metropolis Street Racer and Sega GT, two great games marred by irritating flaws, but there were so many awesome arcade-style and even serious racing games that just ...

I don't know how you even managed to type that sentence. You are a better man than me sir :wink:
Would your opinion change if I told you that was a response to your post if all cover images and no text? ;p

Re: What are you playing?

Ugh, I hate losing progress like that in an RPG. At least you didn't lose your save entirely. But it sounds like you're just not a big fan of the game anyway. I’m not as into it as I’d like, but this has happened to me with better games, too. It’s about timing. If the game slows down and my life ha...

Re: So what have you guys been watching lately?

My wife had a minor surgery recently and that meant I had to stay home with her that day since she was under anesthesia. It was a school day so we actually watched a movie together. VERY rare occurrence. We watched Spider-Man: Far From Home. Very good for an MCU film, with great dialogue between som...

Re: What are you playing?

So I was playing Tales of Vesperia and had finally made peace with some of the weirder (IMO) things going on mechanically, and then I had a crash (not my first, the game ain't super-stable) and lost some progress. And I have struggled to want to pick up the game again. I've lost more progress before...

I'm not impressed unless it's a hotdog with two forks stuck in the opposing ends connected to a 12 volt battery.

Re: New Forum Themes/Styles Feedback

Here are some articles on dark UIs which mention minimum contrast ratios for text color that might be helpful to provide some additional context. I should also note that some eyes are very sensitive to blue light, and while it works fine in large blocks, in fonts it can be troublesome if too dark. h...

Re: New Forum Themes/Styles Feedback

So, I like the colors in the Milk theme except the combination of font style and color. Basically, the text is all too dark (not enough contrast) and too thin. It actually kind of hurts my eyes to try and read stuff. The extra empty space initially threw me off (I'm on desktop right now) but I don't...
