Sometimes permissions get changed either accidentally or during updates to the forum software.@Jack will take care of it

I tend to like dark in forums, because it helps eyestrain. But I think this is too much of a good thing. A little brighter would be better.

Usually I use my own theme here, via local CSS, which tones down the brighter elements of the standard theme. I'll try this for a while. Thanks.

Addendum: yes, the colors on the front page and the form pages are way too muted for my eyes. I need more contrast than this.

@Jack - a greater value for lettering would reduce eye-strain while using Dark theme.

Value = brightness.

Blue and grey lettering not quite bright enough...

Of course, this will be highly variable from user system to user system dependent upon monitor, graphics and power settings.

I have new i7 system using 4500 graphics with above average quality monitor and High Performance power settings.

Here's a shot of my css. I basically darken the background a little, and I narrow the thread column to make for shorter line lengths, both of which I find make reading easier. I haven't spent much time on the css, it's pretty simple.

I made some minor but important changes, lightening up the text for more contrast, and now I really like this dark theme. Very beautifully laid out.
