Boards Are A Bit Dark

Kenocka·Oct 18, 2014·7 votes·909 views

So I've got to say that I don't mind the layout of the boards too much but honestly the color scheme is very, very dark. I've got eye problems and this is hard on my eyes. I've had other people express the same concerns. I know this is probably late to the party but would Riot ever consider a version more akin to the old color scheme or at least give us the option turning on a lighter color scheme?

well as far as an official version goes, still waiting on that but in the meantime you can install the add-on Stylish here and download a "skin" for the site that may work better for your eyes here. (F.E.K. compatible if anyone's curious.)

I was the one who published the RW Renekton, Aatrox Classic, and Volibear Classic Themes so if you have any questions requests, feel free to ask!

I'm afraid that those are all still really dark for me, personally. If there were any that had dark text/lighter backgrounds then that would be great but as those skins are, they aren't an improvement for me. I don't mean to offend when I say that but they aren't helping me. Thank you for trying though! I really appreciate it.

On np at all. I'm still a newbie when it comes to programming with CSS, so I'll see if I can get an adjusted (dark text on light background) skin out eventually. You're not the only one with this problem, trust me! ^_^

I prefer the dark forum skin as well, although, Riot should add an option to alternate between a lighter/darker forum skin to better suit different players. I've seen other forums with the ability to change skins before, and I most definitely think Riot should consider for those players who do have trouble viewing the forums as of now, because it's either too dark or for any other reason.
