New Purpy forum skin

As per @xunilog's request, I have added a Purpylite skin to the available themes.  The code boxes in that theme are now dark font on light gray.   Feedback welcome!

Re: New Purpy forum skin

i alway said the meaning of "contrast" its strong agains soft, not soft agains soft but at leas users can change the look when login in the forum..

I bet that if you survey how many users change the main theme you will find a big surprise, maybe forum need to make a survey to see it users real opinion..

Re: New Purpy forum skin

Whilst I agree on the idea that strong contrast is better, a glance at the forum style usage rather shows that most people (88%) find the default anywhere on the scale from pleasant to  sufficiently acceptable, to not bother to change.

Re: New Purpy forum skin

In my opinion, there is no problem with the appearance of the forum.

But we could make a black theme to be used as an alternative

No need to do that.  There are already three black themes available under user profile.  wink

Oh, I had nothing to do with that.  They were part of the default FluxBB install.  I only did the two purpy themes.  wink

None using purple/lavender … all using shades of white.

There's certainly room for cool creativity (should the energy be available, and seeking an outlet … in an acceptable direction).
