I reaaaally like the new look of the site, huge fan of vectors and flat UIs, but it's too bright for me. I've been wanting to do my own take on TempStyle Dark for a long time cause I never liked the default TempStyle Dark that mixed gray and blue.

Introducing TempStyle Shadow!
An actual dark and clean take on the V6 skin!

More screenshots: Profile, Main forum view, In-topic view.

This skin mainly uses 3 shades of gray and white for most UI elements and links. The original orange color appears occasionally as hover color and poll stats, which works really well for my eyes.
This skin also brings back full signatures.

I spent last night and today skinning just about everything I could find ( huge thanks @TheKawaiiDesu for helping me search the site <3 ) and made it dark and nice.

Obviously like with every and anything there will be bugs and quirks, feel free to report those, should you find them.

The theme can be found on Userstyles HERE. To install it from here you need Stylish, but for your own sake, install Stylus (Chrome link - Firefox link) instead.
Note: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR GBATEMP STYLE SET TO THE NEW SKIN!

Updated to 1.02:

- Initial mobile styling (initial because I'm not sure if there are any other elements to style)
- Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience

Mobile nav is now styled (both top bar and the nav buttons)

Woop, awesome! Great job again. As me and TH said though, could there be a bit of a lighter verson? Really getting used to this though. It's nice.

Wiki is not skinned, is that planned at any point ?
Thanks for the skin btw, it's great :)
Not planning on skinning it no, but thanks for bringing it to my attention cause I never intended it to be affected at all. Need to change so it doesn't skin subdomains..

No rush but you think that the white box from when a post is quoted will be fixed?

Theme seems to work fine as a userscript rather than a style - if you have Greasemonkey/Tampermonkey/etc. installed already, there's no reason to install Stylish/Stylus/whatever.

I gave up on Stylish years ago due to high memory usage, but collecting and selling user data by default is pretty low. I can see why there'd be a demand for that info, though; being armed with the knowledge of which sites users re-theme the most gives web designers or site owners ideas about who/what/where to target.

Can *monkey auto update the style like Stylus (Stylish)?

Tampermonkey will check for updates to scripts every x hours, but I doubt it notices immediately when new versions are pushed to the source URL. I assume Greasemonkey does the same, but I don't really use Firefox.

I suppose in fairness I should also note that Tampermonkey also collects browsing data, but it can be disabled with a single click in settings and their handling of it seems pretty professional.

I literally just read the Stylus privacy policy, they don't collect anything... I don't know about Stylish though...

I know about the patreons and all but, can't you talk to costello and see if this can be added as an alternative for the official (yet,non-released) tempstyle dark v2?

I mean, you kinda did the work for them. I'm still on tempstyle darkv1 because i refuse to use the light theme. It's way too bright.

Yet it took you less then 24 hours, ok

You do know that coming up with a new interface take a lot of time.
Especially if you're building it from scratch.

What OP did was just reskin the UI.
Something that everybody can do in little time.

I really can't imagine that they would ever even consider that idea at all.

The new interface is there. It just needs a reskin.

I bet $10 that, when the dark theme is released, it will be just an official reskin ;) this is just greedy people being greedy.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
