Hello everyone,
We've done some small changes to the MalwareTips Black Wave theme (Dark layout) and we want to know if you like these changes. We've used more toned-down colors, and we've changed the layout of the buttons. We'll keep updating this theme over the next week, however, we want to hear what can we do to improve it.

A suggestion, when dark mode is activated you see a square around the avatars in a specific section. Attached is an image for better understanding.

Edit: that's the only detail I don't like about the dark theme, everything else is great.

Been testing also on my phone and noted a possible issue in the editor when I was typing a reply in a profile. Got some never seen before character and forgot take a screenshot, but will hopefully fix that next time I see it.

The semi-green color also visible in members online Avatar feature and the blue seen in the supplied screenshot, I personal find a bit pale. The general darkness I could even go with more dark same as in the header and footer but, it's well enough balanced at the moment. Toogle the sidebar and width seems to work as it should and so far nothing else of major concern seen or found. (y):emoji_beer:

I generally use dark theme and like the grey areas but would it be possible to lighten up the really black background?
Can't comment on this theme because I use the default theme and personally find all this black too dark, but kudos for keeping to improve this great website.
I've tried in the past to make it a more bright, however, most of the members liked it this deep black. In the boxes where there is text I've actually increased the brightness and I've only kept it dark in the secondary backgrounds (where there's no text).

Sure, it will be done. : D

I've changed this color to a more bright green.

I've used it because it's visible when outside and is easier on the eyes. Previously it was way more bright blue. : P

Correlate disappears in dark mode! I tried Firefox and Chrome (the latter only with Norton Safe Web and the IBM extension).

I've "fixed" this even though this wasn't a bug. @Correlate is using an avatar with a transparent background, anyway, the avatar should look good now.

@CyberTech . I can see the circle on your Avatar perhaps ain't 100% clear white but, the Avatar image on @Lobito Punky is not as choppy or unsharp around the edges as in that screenshot. Not on my machine anyway, and I tested with several browsers.

You should test and compare both classic and no classic themes. Also try re-upload the image/picture.

Any theme that doesn't hurt my eyes as i have photosensitive eyes, I'm all in favour of. I even have my laptop & phone screens brightness low.
