    For those of you who don't like dark themes on the forums, I've created a variant of the 4P default with a white and brighter blue color scheme. If you'd like to use FourPlay Light, simply click the theme selector at the bottom of any page and select FourPlay Light from the popup.

    Love the light theme so much more.
    I think it should be the default! :3​

    Both are good. I think I'm going to stick with the light one so I can read, though. XD

    Agreed. :D There are more colours so it's easier on the eyes, imo.

    The main reason I have the dark theme as the default is because it matches the site. That said, if there's a lot of demand, I'd certainly consider making the Light theme the default.

    I'm more of a fan of the Light theme myself. I feel like you could make the dark theme better if you just brighten up the text a bit. It was a little difficult to read stuff haha.

    By popular demand, FourPlay Light is now the default theme. :)
    Would you guys prefer a light theme on the main site as well? Or is the dark theme better for you there?

    Light theme. :'D It provides more contrast so it's easier to read & with more colour (or tints, anyway), content stands out more.

    Just a note that I changed the link color on the main site from the blue to a lighter grayish blue. In my opinion (and Will agreed) it's easier on the eyes and the text stands out more. I have a lighter option, but I'd probably need to do some work to make it more visually appealing and similar to the light forum skin.
