ProverbsofHell.2307 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I really love coming to the forums and posting when I'm not on GW2, but the forum is triggering aura migraines which I suffer from. I know this won't affect everyone quite as severely, but the forum is too white with small text, even those who don't suffer migraines will find this unpleasant to look at, especially at night. Please add a theme to the forums that inverts all white and black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems like a useful option but in the meantime plenty of browsers do have night time plugins or built in options to do the same. Are you on pc or mobile?

I think it's just the overwhelming whiteness of the forum around the text, I get flashing vision if I look away from it after reading a topic. Regardless, you inspired me to take matters into my own hands, I had never thought of adding a browser plugin to solve this, but I downloaded one which has done exactly what I wanted. So thank you very much! :+1: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrubySzymek.1362 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Oh yes please. The white/red/black style is pretty good but is very impractical. C'mon Anet, I'm sure you can do this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBZVelena.5186 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 guys, it's been asked and A-net said that since there are plenty of browser filters out there. They had no intention of doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StinVec.3621 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 If anyone here is desiring a non-bright/white theme for the forums and uses FireFox, I know there are many options out there. However, consider taking a look at the Stylish (CSS) theme I made that is linked in my signature to see if it is something you'd prefer. There are some screenshots in an Imgur gallery and instructions on how to install Stylish and use the theme included in the CSS theme file. Can also message me if there are any issues you encounter that I can help with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should work with Edge or anything else that supports WebExtensions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should work with Edge or anything else that supports WebExtensions as well. I've looked at Stylus before, but I've not used Chrome or Opera in a very, very long time. I was not sure if those browsers ever added support for the Mozilla-specific `@-moz-document domain` to restrict theme activation to only the specified domain, so I stuck with only recommending the theme for FireFox users. If they have not adopted support for it, perhaps there is another way to ensure theme activation for the specified site regardless of the browser used.

Mea.5491 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I used to have the same problem but I've been using Stylish, "Dark Background and Light Text" and PangoBright screen dimmer for years now, they are life savers, literally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vavume.8065 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I'm very glad you posted this thread mentioning the Aura, I had never heard of it before but have been suffering with it for some time now without knowing what was happening to me, now it all makes sense, and it is this forum that is to blame for triggering my aura...
