Light/Dark Theme

[Darthmaul]

When you create a forum, do you stick to a dark theme or a light theme and why?

 

[StevenF50]

I prefer light themes but Zingor is having a huge selection of themes so members get more choice.

 

[Terry Harvey]

Definitely light themes.

 

[StevenF50]

Dark themes make me unhappy for some reason.

Dark themes make me unhappy for some reason.

Dark themes are good on certain forums :barefoot:
I do like light themes a bit better

 

[StevenF50]

Even on gaming sites I don't like them.

 

[Austin]

Light themes are always my preference. Dark one's annoy me, don't know why though.

 

[StevenF50]

Yeah they make me angry, unhappy and put me in a bad mood.

 

[Terry Harvey]

Dark themes are good, but only if they have an even contrast.

 

[TeknoSound]

I like light themes as it doesn't make the forum look to dreary and uninviting.

 

[Dean]

I also like light themes the most, but I always want to add a dark version just incase.

 

[Austin]

I do make an exception to gaming type forums, they just seem like they need a dark theme. Just seems right, oddly.

 

[Tindris]

I prefer lighter themes, they are easier on the eyes and in many cases it makes the forum feel more opening and inviting.

 

[Shix]

I prefer to use lighter themes, more than darker themes, because they're easier on the eyes. Although if it was for a gaming site, i would always use a dark theme.

 

[StevenF50]

I also like light themes the most, but I always want to add a dark version just incase.

Agreed. That's what I'm doing with Zingor.

 

[Subz]

I do like dark themes but there doesn't seem that many good ones around so better to stick to light themes.

 

[StevenF50]

On AM I had a custom dark theme which was nice.

 

[Subz]

Yeah which is what you have to do, buy or make yourself a custom theme to get a good fdark theme because there are not many god dark themes out there that could be perfect for you or your forum.

 

[StevenF50]

Yeah. It's hard to choose a dark theme if you don't like them.
