Hey everyone. I made two themes inspired and based off the winternord theme some of you may have seen already in your instances. One is a darker, more contrasty theme (icy-nord-darker) based on the other (icy-nord). They are very simple, but they do fix some issues I had with winternord, such as some text being very hard to read because of its colour, or the background image often interfering with the foreground and making it hard to read stuff.

Let me know what you think, any suggestions, what you like, and what you dislike.

alright, i am going to try it now. so basically i have to import both files(.css, .diff.css) into /volumes/lemmy-ui/extra_themes or?

If youre going to try it locally, just install the browser extension it mentions and copy the .diff.css code into the extensions area, then save. It will apply to all tabs you have so its just a temporary measure if you want to test it out.

As for servers, unfortunately I cant give you any help as I dont run an instance so I havent tried it in that way

Got it. I'll manage somehow because https://bootstrap.build/app is not working from my end.

Maybe ask an instance admin who already has some themes up and running. They will probably know

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have no idea who has it. Do you have any instance link that is already running it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

If you want to check it out, the instance im on has it set as default. Otherwise, pretty much any admin that has any custom theme setup should be able to guide you through the process. It doesn't necessarily need to be my themes. Hope it helps!
