I know we have all been bombarding the devs with a lot of suggestions recently, but would be possible to lighten up the rank colours? Right now, most of the higher up ranks colours are hard to read when using Darkside:

Yes and the white pixels on some smileys.  

 

Smileys for dark theme can be stored in seperated folder so the script can be linked to that folder instead of using same ones.

That + user photos like mine have a weird white halo around it, emojis too. :huh: 

Not seeing the white halo issue, but I do see that some of the smileys are badly cropped.

They'd be better off just cropping them instead of having two separate sets.

If they have time for that, sure but there are smiley sets on the internet to download for dark themes. So it saves their time from cropping.

slightly off topic but this reminds me of another bug

@Timan The vetstar from this Members Key on the forum index still gives a mixed content warning

 

when using chrome's inspector it still points to

For consistency sake, both themes should have the same smileys. They could even get a random member to crop them for them if they didn't have the time.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
