I added some dark themes to the forum for everyone to vote on. Try them out and post which one you prefer. You can access them by editing your profile and going to settings. My comments: 1. Dark Blue 1 theme is very romantic. The light RCBASIC banner at the top looks very attractive and pretty. Dark Blue 1 theme also looks like New York City at night. Dark Blue 1 makes me feel mysterious but professional. 2. Dark Blue 2 theme. This theme is so crazy. It is so bright and not pretty enough. It should not be called Dark Blue 2. Light Blue is a more suitable name. Visitors' eyes will easily be hurt by this theme. 3. Moon theme is another crazy theme. It may be very difficult for every visitor to read in this theme. The words are too dark! Moreover, empty spaces are too wide on the left side and on the right side. 4. Default theme. Too ordinary. Dark Blue 1 is a very good boost to RCBasic's image.

If you wish to know which color is best to look into dark look into some astronomical programs

I use Geany as my 'gui' for coding and as such have added 33 themes. They vary form 'retro' (green screen) to a theme that looks like a rainbow threw up on it... Out of all of theme, I have settled on maybe three themes. My point, in regards to Geany, I have choice. Dark, light, somewhere in between... When ever my mood changes, even based on the time of day, I change it to what suits me at the time. N00b, thank you for the choices of themes, much appreciated... If ever you are feeling 'crazy' from time to time... surprise us with some more choices... J

johnno56 I will try to get more choices in there eventually. I had to make tweaks to each font to make sure all the text was readable so its probably not going to be anytime soon. It seems everyone was in favor of Dark Blue 1. This theme needs some more tweaks before I can set it to default. I can probably roll that out after christmas.

Cool.
The only 'downside' I could find with Dark Blue 1 is that it shows up the 'blurring' around my rotating avatar... lol

I made one change to the text and decided to set it as default now. The old default is still available from profile settings.

Less legible, the letters are offensive, you can hardly see the difference between, for example, a regular font and bold ...

rosy I 100% disagree with you, but thats the awesome thing about individual choice, in your opinion it sucks and you can still use the old theme if it is more your style.

So you are struck by the same bold white font compared to the normal one as in the case of black?
