More Orange

MLPOL Anon is Orange.

I suggest that we change the color from the namefield and the greentext to orange as well.

I like the idea and the spirit, but orange is too close to the background color of the main board imo.

We should have an option for it. Like "<" or " ".

I second this if it is easy to implement. If it is hard to do, whatever.

I think we've talked about this before, and most wanted to keep greentext.
However I'm with the idea of making orange text optional.
I think we could get some new board writing style memes out of it.
Like being able to greentext with two speakers more easily, or having greentext be "wrong think" while orangetext isn't, etc.

I have heard your cries and did a thing
>>3804 →
Now with namefield and exact shade of orange as in the OP here
Just post this in the User CSS box under options

span.quote {
color: #DB7A18;
}

p.intro span.name {
color: #DB7A18;
}

Make sure to use a darker theme or it will probably look like shit
You can change the Hex value to any color that pleases you if you tire of orange

Missed a few things
Add these as well to Get a majority of all post quotes and links

a:link, a:visited, p.intro a.email span.name {
color: #DB7A18;
}

div.post.reply div.body a {
color: #DB7A18;
}

Nice
>>3812
And just because orange is starting to grow on me and I dislike the default orange theme available in options because of how hard it is to read things in the catalog when hovering with it here is another piece to paste into the CSS options to get the header and thread titles
You should end up with something like in my image using the tomorrow theme

div.boardlist a {
color: #DB7A18;
}

p.intro span.subject {
color: #DB7A18;
}

Green really goes better with the YotsubaB theme, which is the default.
If you bother changing the theme then it's no trouble checking one extra box while you're at it for the orange text

Tomorrow theme dropdown menu default.png
Tomorrow theme dropdown menu fixed black and orange.png
>>3816
I don't want to keep fagging the place up but I found a few faults with what I had if anybody cares.

I can't figure out how to change the thread watcher menu in with the PonyX script so it looks awful, maybe somebody smarter than me can help out

There was also a problem with the menu for reporting/deleting/hiding posts but that wasn't a fault of mine, it just seems to be terrible by default in the Tomorrow theme but I was able to correct that at least

.post-menu {
color: #DB7A18;
}

.post-menu ul {
background-color: #1D1F21;
}

Should fix it up like in picture if you're going with orange, or you can simply change the hex values to any other color if you choose to do something different but are using Tomorrow theme anyway
Obviously the first code is the text and the second one is the color of the box itself/background

Awesome, I only recently decided to start learning about editing css so I'm still learning but I'm glad it's of some value

.post-menu li:hover {
background-color: #282A2E;
}

And for hovering your mouse over the selections
I went with gray like the post bubble/box background

I also just noticed the completely default theme now seems to simply have orange text in it and I would recommend it probably just be a good ol' black
like

.post-menu {
color: #000000;
}

Not sure if this is what you refer to, but you have to reload the page before the correct bg and text color appears in the menu after you have switched theme via Options.

orange text on drop down.png
>>3849
Odd it fixed it when I reset the cache just now
But it was orange when I had everything turned off on my side completely.

I actually don't input anything into the options pane here and just throw them into my stylish addon so I can turn them on and off willy nilly and simple refreshes the orange test persisted

Maybe I'm going crazy or maybe I just need to go to bed

I captured an image of it anyway, even if it's just my mistake.
lol
It threw me off pretty hard for a good minute

No wait, I fuged up again, I had thrown the black text fix into the options pane for some reason when I did that
It is still like in the screenshot by default
It should be something like this I feel

I have the same problem. Not sure what does it, but I guess after you have settled for a theme it will work itself out in the end. But it makes editing and testing harder....

Is now the default, I blame admin abuse. shame, shame. :P

>>3852
Is how it should be, if you can't wait and are using the default Tomorrow or dark theme throw
.post-menu {
color: #000000;
}
into the custom CSS settings

This pic is Tomorrow theme with all my orange shit thrown on

Search button default.png
Search Button orange.png
Search button and other things white.png
>>3858
Just happy to help

This last one for tonight is just for the search button at the top of the catalogue if people want it to be orange instead of purple
a, a:visited {
text-decoration: underline;
color: #DB7A22;
}

It seems to effect other things as well that were already made orange by something else I had done so I guess there is a conflict somewhere and I'm too tired to figure out which one is overwriting which right now and bed is calling me.
Shown from first to last is default, second is all my orange rice and last is all my orange rice but changing search to white which effects other elements a previous thing I had done/will effect on the default theme
Not sure if it hits anything else, it probably does. I'll play with it more tomorrow

I'll also try to make more comprehensive changes or observations as needed so I don't have to spam the thread over and over

Well one last thing

I went ahead and made an account on userstyles and threw my work on there if people would rather try out my orange shit that way instead of copying and pasting everything into the custom CSS box in options
Requires Stylish or something similar

Made on Firefox but tested it on Chrome real quick and it seems to work fine on there as well if that's the browser you use
