Noriko Mai 1980	Posted - 2015.01.17 16:16:16 - [1] - Quote Please bring back the old Dark Opaque theme. At the moment the most similar theme to it is the Carbon theme. My problem with Carbon is that it has a too high contrast. Here is a comparison between Dark Opaque and Carbon. The lower contrast makes it far less tiring for the eyes. The Caldari theme is close to Dark Opaque by background colour, but it is blue and not as neutral as Dark Opaque theme was before everything was changed. The main change is just a lighter background. All backgrounds are very dark and therefor either have a very high contrast to the foreground colour or the foreground colour is red/green/yellow/etc. I just want a neutral theme that is not so stressful for the eyes due to it's high contrast. The data/content ares are much better visible too. Grey/dark grey instead of pure black/very dark black. Exclusive content for mobile users

Rroff Questionable Ethics. Ministry of Inappropriate Footwork 889	Posted - 2015.01.17 18:27:40 - [3] - Quote I find dark matter theme with 65% transparency and blur off a good replacement for the dark opaque theme its not a completely like for like replacement but it ticks most of the boxes that the old theme used to for me.
Janna Windforce Deep Core Mining Inc. Caldari State 60	Posted - 2015.01.17 18:46:34 - [4] - Quote Also "terminal" theme (green and black).

But there seem be some limitations and/or "reasons", otherwise CCP would have implemented it straigt with the theme changes or with a later release.

I already tried every possible theme. My main problem is the very dark background. You either have a very dark theme (dark background with dark foreground) or a very high contrast (dark background with light foreground). Only the Caldari theme has a slightly less dark background but it has a blue foreground. So there is no "non racial"/neutral theme that has a brighter back- and foreground. Bring back Dark Opaque theme
Boltorano Banana Moon Industries 123	Posted - 2015.01.17 20:31:55 - [6] - Quote Fully supported. I used to use the default black theme, but can't use either Dark Matter or Carbon because they give me eye strain.

Adrie Atticus Shadows of Rebellion The Bastion 842	Posted - 2015.01.17 22:18:50 - [10] - Quote I tried barking this on SiSi, after patch launch and even after the current patch launch, I'm not expecting anything at this point. I've resorted into a custom overlay on top of my eve overview which cuts Gamma to 0.65 all my windows, but leaves non-interface space at 1.00. This makes everything way less readable, but at least the ******* flashing of windows is gone and I don't need to pop aspirins to play Eve.

I love the dark matter theme too, I just wish it wasn't so painful to see what was selected.

I don't like any of these new themes. :( So long as these things are optional that's cool. I for one really like the new themes and look with the semi transparency. I'm currently using Gallente.
Esna Pitoojee Offworld Trading Company Ethical Carnage 485	Posted - 2015.01.17 23:26:27 - [13] - Quote Absolutely supporting this. Dark Opaque or the ability to just choose our own color combinations, please.

Devore Sekk Shadowed Command 35	Posted - 2015.01.18 09:54:17 - [17] - Quote Some good suggestions already here. I use Carbon myself precisely because it is just high contrast enough to be legible. Ok, maybe it could be turned down a bit. Dark Matter is terrible, because the contrast difference for items (overview, inventory, etc) that are selected, unselected, and mouse-over is practically indistinguishable. So, Carbon contract is too high, Dark Matter is too low. Carbon with blur off (it makes overlapping window terrible, CCPlease.....) and turn transparency way down, to 20-25 range.

Noriko Mai 2005	Posted - 2015.01.19 14:02:16 - [19] - Quote Something I noticed about the Carbon theme is that it actually looks not that bad while playing at daylight. Playing with dimmed lights in the evening or in the dark makes it really tiring as mentioned in OP. Come On Everybody, support Dark Opaque theme
Electrique Wizard Mutually Lucrative Business Proposals Market and Contract PVP 397	Posted - 2015.01.20 21:11:40 - [20] - Quote Agul Chith wrote: Better Idea: Let us pick our own settings.

Eve Solecist Science and Trade Institute Caldari State 39	Posted - 2015.03.28 01:18:46 - [24] - Quote I'd like to add this here ... http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized ... which supports her words regarding in lower contrasts and readability. Quote: Solarized is a sixteen color palette (eight monotones, eight accent colors) designed for use with terminal and gui applications. It has several unique properties. I designed this colorscheme with both precise CIELAB lightness relationships and a refined set of hues based on fixed color wheel relationships. It has been tested extensively in real world use on color calibrated displays (as well as uncalibrated/intentionally miscalibrated displays) and in a variety of lighting conditions. You might want to add and rewrite your initial post, to give yourself some good background. You might also want to check available ingame color shemes in regards to contrasts. Given the information on the linked site, you might realise new possibilities? "Please do not file support tickets to ask if your support ticket will be answered soon." - Actual Quote.
