Hi everyone!

There is a new theme called cyberpunkish in the web interface settings now.

I wanted to create a theme for this instance and this is my first stab at it. If you try it out, any feedback is very welcome!

I edited this post to show how it looks now in latest version. I will sticky this post for a day so regular users dont miss info about it.

Huge thanks to @[email protected] for so much great feedback about the theme.

If many people think its great, perhaps we set it as default for the instance.

    I made the gradient blue only, it felt like it was a bit too much color going on there… and changed the sidebar and the logotype a bit. What do you think?

    This is test5.css at the moment. :)

      Not bad! This elegantly solves the consistency of link design

      Absolutely love the highlight before “About us” section of the sidebar, but “LEMMY TODAY” on the sidebar would probably be better off colored.

          It’s zero effort compared to you tweaking everything far and wide to make this place the best!

            Yeah I got more motivated now myself when the server is so fast. :) It was fine before too but definently feels more fun to use now.

                The gradient on the left became ugly when it was a long post. I experimented a bit and what about this look? I think it looks really clean and cyber. :) Not sure about the purple on the right side, maybe too much.

                It also looks cool to remove the borders from the posts so they are floating in space:

                These are test5.css and test6.css if you want to try live.

                  Hell yeah! Can’t tell if the purple on the right is too much or not, can you screenshot both options?

                  Also, on the sidebar, either the line at the top needs to go away or there should be a bigger distance between it and LEMMY TODAY

                    Added another screenshot. And yeah, I was thinking it becomes too much there also… its funny, because you always say the things that im also thinking of when it comes to the design. Must be a good sign. :)
