Hello,
I know that some of you requested a black version of our new layout - MalwareTips New Theme (Feedback and Testing for Members), so here it is.

How to use the new theme:
1. Go to the MalwareTips footer, and click on "MalwareTips Style".

2. From the pop-up menu (Style Chooser), select the "MalwareTips 2.0 Dark version" theme.

@Jack i am trying right now and i must say i really like it.
In comparison with the classic Dark theme this is much better the letter's in the posts are more bright
and much easier to read.
In the new version i can see in the avatar if a member is online or not.
One of the two- Dark theme 2.0 and the new 2.0 (Beta testing )- is going to be my default theme but which one i will decide the next days;)
Nice work MT staff and thanks for listening to us:)

It's that kind of theme you want to use when it's late at night and you're tired and don't want a bright screen hurting your eyes. I will however say that the header being all blue like that and the rest of the page being so dark feels a bit awkward. Putting that aside, not bad. Here's what I would do:

- Keep everything else below the header as it is. It's perfect.
- Remove the blue background and make it LIGHT grey.
- I think the blue navigation tabs can stay blue.
- Make the "MalwareTips" text ALL blue, but keep "your security advisor" white.
- My last suggestion is a big one, but again I'm just throwing it out there, and that's to make the "dark blue" text on the forum brighter. Maybe baby blue? I think this would solve a lot of the concerns here regarding it being hard to read.

Take it or leave it. In any case, good job. :)

Dark theme is my favorite perspective view throughout its design :) , only little concern from now is that the font color blue seems not to blend well like on the following areas:

  • Mini spy
  • Latest threads
  • Even font color from names who likes the post
  • Others which may pertain to have little issue on color blend

Because others are fine with white font color alongside of hitch bold type, although I should respect the familiarity of functions and its coded appearance.

Oh my goodness, that is SO much better. The only other thing I would recommend, and again, it may just be me, and that's a slightly brighter blue font. Otherwise, fantastic job!

This dark theme (unlike the last one) has online status on a users profile pictures (something only the light theme had before). Theme looks flat and modern and in general easier to navigate. No complaints from me. Like this better than the other dark theme.

Sigs and member info should IMO be shown by default. The option to hide/collapse is great but for new members or people that normaly never used forums it could be confusing.

When selecting a choice in the SCW fields, The font and background color are too close, unreadable.
