tempStyle 3 Q&A

Can I continue to use the old styles?
Change can be difficult but we suggest you try using tempStyle 3 for a while to feel the benefits. Unfortunately we are retiring the old styles and starting today they will no longer be available for use.

Why is the page so narrow?
Click this icon

in the bottom left of any page.

But what about the dark and black themes?
tempStyle 3 was delayed while work on the dark and black themes was completed. You can find more information on how to select them above.

I prefer right handed navigation on mobile?
You can enable right handed navigation in your User Prefs > Mobile display settings > Right handed navigation menu.

I cleared my cache and now my custom style is gone! How do I get it back?
Unfortunately, this is not currently an option but we are looking into it.

I made a cool custom style! How can I submit it as an official preset style?

I have a suggestion to improve the new style!
Please let us know in the dedicated thread by clicking here.

I found something that doesn't look quite right!?
We are still working on the new skin and bugs and some sections of the site may have been overlooked when designing it. Especially if using a non-default style. If you find a bug or something that looks unpolished or in need of updating please let us know in the dedicated thread by clicking here.[/INFORMATION]

Just a really minor thing, but on the New Content page, when everything is read the New Content preferences link isn't bold, despite most other links (and all the other ones in that text box) being bold. Nothing major, but could cause a bit of confusion as it doesn't look like it's a link until you hover it.

Oh yeah. That's been a characteristic of text in general forever. It happens in Microsoft Word, too. Since the first line of a blog post is in the same line as the username, when you post a picture, the line is vertically extended to fit it, but text is aligned to the bottom of the line.
This is why I always start with a new line when doing this.

Not sure if I have suggested this before, but I'd like to suggest having a 3rd option in the default Style Chooser to include a Dark/Black mode, alongside the normal tempStyle 3 and the NFO one.

Reason is that I browse GBATemp from many devices, some of which are videogame consoles like the WiiU and others, and I have noticed that in many of them, using the "Customize colors" option for those devices always defaults back to the original tempStyle 3 Light theme, no matter which one I choose, it always defaults back to the Light theme.

However, when the inclusion of the NFO theme was made, I noticed that these devices would not change back to the Light theme, and instead keep said theme at all points, even after some days. Still though, some devices do not handle the NFO stuff quite nicely in mobile form.

So that's why I'd like to suggest adding a 3rd option in the Style Chooser, it could be either the Dark Theme or the Black theme, whichever of the two would work just nicely with all of the devices that tend to default back to the Light theme when selecting any theme from the "Customize colors" option.

hehe i browse in light mode all the time because customize colors never saves =w=

edit: wait a sec i can't change to the nfo theme either lol

can't we have the theme as part of your account information instead of it stored locally

There have been mentions of making your theme data be stored online, but I don't know if there's been any progress on that front.
