Could you please limit the CSS to only the thread it's celebrating? Sometimes it makes the catalog unreadable and I'd rather not hide a thread that's being celebrated.
No.10414
>>10413I usually do that for the possibly disruptive stuff on /qa/, but /jp/ is supposed to be a bit randomly chaotic and I'd prefer not restricting people (or myself) from messing with it now and then, within reason. I don't like the idea of compartmentalizing CSS within a thread, however, as it's approaching the "condense your threads" 'general' attitude that I greatly loathe. If something really cool happens then all of kissu should be really cool for the day, not the "cool thing happened" thread. To me, ideally, there would be 20 "really cool thing happened" threads and I wouldn't have enough time to customize them all as it engulfs everything. But, back to practicality:
/jp/ antics do bleed into /all/, but people can choose to hide boards or individual threads from it if they desire. Something I never meant to do, but is a cool side effect, is that the Lala theme highlights CSS-enabled posts with yellow text: >>>/jp/38676
I did envision a possible "No Fun" toggle to disable CSS events, but I mostly follow pre-existing CSS guides and don't actually understand how that would work. It'd be up to vern to create it and I don't think it's important enough to spend time on.
I don't suppose you have any saved screenshots from that issue you mention? I usually give stuff 50% opacity to at least lessen the problems like that. I'd rather design things around that then restrict things inside threads. Maybe there's some "disable in catalog view" CSS trick I'm missing
No.10415
Now that I think about it, if I embed the CSS in the bottom reply of a thread it shouldn't appear in catalog mode, but I'm not sure if I want catalog mode to be barren like that

>>10424The CSS-containing threads? Eh, I've tried to refrain from doing any stickies for dumb stuff. I want it to fall off naturally if possible, only to return if someone happens to bump it for whatever reason.
I don't think a sticky would have any benefit when it comes to the code if that's what you meant. CSS loads from top to bottom, in fact.

No.10429
>>10428Yeah, it's definitely something I could do, but I haven't really felt like doing it lately. I think the last time I made one was, hmm... probably Kissu's 3rd or even 2nd birthday? If someone has a great idea for one, though, we could do it

>>10447someone once told me they'd use the kissu-ui if it had a Tomorow theme. They made it for our vichan-ui, but I never adapted it over
No.10449
>>10448Hmm, New UI's Luna theme seems really close to it, but I guess it's not exactly the same.
I'm not sure if I can justify adding a slot for that on its own, but if people like very dark themes then I could try to make one with my own twist on things with Tomorrow as the base.
No.10450
>>10449Just an idea. There are some of the standard themes like photon and tomorow which are staples of 4chan's UI.
I'd tend to say no to more dark themes(we have 4 of them), but running the markup on light themes is a bit of a hassle anyways... Maybe more light themes, but I wouldn't object to more dark ones
No.10451
another thing is that I don't like what I did with kissu.css, our only light theme... so there's even room for correcting mistakes...
But these are the very dry themes that aren't very colorful and(perhaps) not very fun
No.10452
>>10451Yeah, I think at least 90% of people prefer simple color themes, but they're so boring to make. Web 2.0 and its white and grey banality is just so depressing to me.
I will definitely take a look at 'kissu', though. I think that wouldn't be much work to improve in a boring manner.
No.10455
I would like to have a good light theme on Kissu though so if you have any thematic ideas it would be nice if it isn't done with dark colors
No.10456
>>10455Yeah, I'm thinking a light theme is a good idea.
>>10453 seems like a good starting point, the sakura thing is pretty popular and there's many, many examples to draw from.
I swear I've seen a similar theme for something in the past couple years that I really liked, but I can't remember what it was for. It might have even just been one of those fancy graphics for someone's doujin song
No.10459
>>10458Ah, and I don't mean the color, but the gradient effect. Is it too distracting, or does it look nice?
No.10462
>>10460Oh, the OP text is a side effect of messing with the OP text color with rainbow background. Definitely not designed with the Lala rainbow text in mind. (which is a weird transparent text + background fill property) It's not something that will be a part of any theme. I'm just asking about the top part of the reply box that's pink, completely in isolation from everything else.
No.10463
>>10461
>the top part of the reply box that's pink
I think it looks best with Hazuki, little less with Kissu, a little distracting/out of place with Luna and Lala, and no pink top for Nekomimi.
>in isolation
I don't know how to judge that. I guess just the top bar itself is nice to look at.

How is your tolerance level on the animated background? It's a copy of stage 2 EoSD, but I don't have the CSS wizardry to tilt it like it is in the game.

Are you able to use the Lala theme without issue? Or actually, are you using the vichan UI or the new KissuiUI one?
CSS animations do make the CPU work and I was going to do a non-animation version of Lala theme, but kind of forgot. Oops.

Alright, I want to throw up some simple CSS this weekend! (and also want people to give stuff to do in general at any time)
Give me something to do! You can give me a bunch of things, or just one. Multiple people could have different categories active at once and I think that'd be really fun.
As an example, here's an image of what's active on /secret/:
Options:
Background image - Self explanatory - the image that's in the background.
Reply image - The "background" image in the reply box. You generally want this to be a small image with a transparent background. If it's a simple background, though, I can remove it myself. I can make it so it repeats in an X or Y direction or both, or have it expand in size as the reply box grows larger.
Mascot (an image that sits in lower right, usually a character. Like the reply box image, it really needs a transparent background or a simple one that I can remove semi-automatically.
Mouse Cursor - If you're a bad enough dude to make an image that's 128x128 or less with a pointy thing in the upper left, this one is for you. I used to mess around with cursors back in the old days and could maybe give tips if anyone wants to take the plunge. Note that animated cursors are a real pain to create, as they have to be a series of uploaded images cycled in order. (also apparently a bit CPU heavy for people on toasters)
Name (not pictured) - This one is supposed to be a bit special, but we can also change the 'Anonymous' name into something else, as a whole or specific to a board.
So let's do something!
No.10969
>>10968Is it also an option to customize the reply box you type your reply into?
Could be complicated. There's a header background and a background for each text field and a whole bunch of differently styled buttons.
Maybe I'll learn CSS. I never really got into web programming, you know the classic stuff with the HTML and the text editors and the year 2000.
No.10970
>>10969>Is it also an option to customize the reply box you type your reply into?Yes it is! If you actually enter this thread instead of viewing it through /all/ you'll see that I messed around with the reply box's handle bar thingie just to see if I could.
I guess if people have any requests for permanent options they could ask in this thread, too, or did you want to throw something in there temporarily?
No.10973
>>10970Oh, but it only works on new UI. Old UI's is customizable as well, but it has its own specifications. I could probably dig these all up and label them. I already did it for the new UI for the Lala theme.
