New layout - color fix :)
by highwaykind on Comments
Since so many people were complaining about the bright white, I wrote a userstyle script to fix it. Might as well create a blog entry of my own to keep from spamming friends' blogs and the forum with the same message over and over again. Instructions: * Install Mozilla (and apparently Opera with Greasemonkey installed works too) * Go to userstyles.org and install the Stylish addon from there. * Go to http://userstyles.org/styles/10661 and install the script There are 2 screenshots before/after there as well, so you can see what you'll get once it's installed. (It's just plain CSS code with !important added to override the tv.com CSS - you can change the code yourself if you hit "manage styles", so you can make this site show up in any color you want) Occasionally disable the script to see if TV.com changed things for the better, but until then this works :) I'll 'perfect' the dark brown version, hopefully this week. The script that's up now was just a quick "most ID's and classes" fix, 2 hours work. (some text might be black on dark-brown, but for most pages it's good) Yesterday I pulled the original CSS and I am now making changes to that, but it's a bit of a puzzle trying to figure out which thing they called what name. So it's gonna take a while, but after that ALL pages should look OK. When it's done I'll combine the rules to get a proper clear CSS file - and it shouldn't be too hard to update it to black on beige (#e6e3cc) then either as someone else suggested was better. Font size I can fix too I hope (depends on if the boxes get bigger along with the fonts, otherwise it's a bit too much work). For the coders: should I make it em's as well in stead of px which it is now, or since it's Mozilla doesn't that matter too much when it comes to magnification/scaling?
