If i may, since this morning some texts are difficult to read under the current CK-style setting : mainly user name on left of post, and worst the subscribed thread titles on the UserCP screen.

I think they fixed the problem of hyperlinks and text having the same colour, but the black being used at the moment isn't a good option for contrast and readability.

edit: but the white might do the trick :)

Thanks for fixing it :)

Now :

Code:
It's still unreadable inside code flags.

I am not sure what you did to the CK template, but it does not seem to be an improvement. Code-boxes are readable, but the black on grey (or dark-grey for quotes) is a bit of a regression in readability.

Although you have lost some of the lines around the post-boxes which were jarring - if in a good way.

edit: gold on red of the victoria template doesn't result in the best contrast either

Can we perhaps get rid of the shadows in the Victoria (and other) modes? They're quite irritating (to me at least), and a design relict of the 90s best left forgotten. Also, the extremely "round corners" of e.g. the "Reply to Thread" button could be made a bit less round.

Those are my personal preferences. Additionally, I find it hard to read the Victoria and the CK styles. DeepOcean still has the most balanced colour scheme: it's important that nothing grabs attention too hard, as it'll be hard to read then.

Thanks seseo, much better.

...

If you mean the light effect currently around the "Reply to Thread" and "posting permissions" boxes I do agree wholehartedly. I think that is what was removed before around the post-boxes.

The shadows should be removed for all the new templates now.

Great, thanks! :) And the text is also much more readable now, with the lighter text. :)
