AwesomeMod Config - Stylish

[Anach]

Just a little something to make it easier on the eyes for Firefox users. Copy this into a new Stylish script. You can adjust the background colour or font settings for these scripts to your own liking.  

#This is visual change that only affects the AwesomeConfig for those with Stylish installed.

Blue Background

Code:

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document url("http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/ts3/awesome/config.php") {

/* set background color */
html {
  background: #253960 !important;
}

/* body padding & fonts*/
body {
  color: #FFFFFF !important;
  font-family: Sans-Serif !important;
  padding: 0 2em !important;
  font-size:20px;
}

table {
 font-size:18px !important;
}

p {
 font-size:14px !important;
}

/* link colors */
a:link,
#Comments .CommentHeader span a {
  color: #82BDFF !important;
  text-decoration: none !important;
}
a:visited,
#Comments .CommentHeader span a:visited {
  color: #72DFAD !important;
  text-decoration: none !important;
}
a:hover {
  text-decoration: underline !important;
}
}

Persuade me that this is better than what I already have and tell me how to integrate this and I might consider it. Screenshots!

This is what I got from it:

  I like the pretty blue colors, but my eyes being as they are, smaller print does not help. Functionality trumps pretty.  Nice job, anyway.

Add this to the Styish script:

P {font-size:150%}

I don't have FF so I can't test.

Also, serif fonts are easier to read than sans-serif

All you would have to do is change the background colour and possibly invert the font colours in whatever software you use to create the page. Colour choice is up to you. It's personal choice really. I simply dont like white pages. The only bright white light I wish to stare into is at the end of my days

The fancy buttons that are shown in the screenshot above are done by the theme used on firefox or the OS the poster uses, I didnt touch those.

[J. M. Pescado]

Bleh, but I like my white page. It's traditional. It gives it that crisp, sterile, purely-functional look.

[Anach]

Ok here is one that allows you to edit the font sizes of each section in percentages (saves messing with em or px). I've already set it to suit my own screen res, so adjust it for yourself, but this should take care of the small fonts on the descriptions. Change whatever you wish. However, keep in mind that with percentages, it will be a percentage of the parent setting, rather than a fixed size. If you dont want to use percentage, just change the % to px and specify the pixel size of the font.

Code:

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document url("http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/ts3/awesome/config.php") {

/* set background color */
html {
  background: #253960 !important;
}

/* body padding & fonts*/
body {
  color: #FFFFFF !important;
  font-family: Sans-Serif !important;
  padding: 0 2em !important;
  font-size:110%;
}

/* Selection titles */
table {
 font-size:115% !important;
}

/* Descriptions */
p {
 font-size:65% !important;
}

/* link colors */
a:link,
#Comments .CommentHeader span a {
  color: #82BDFF !important;
  text-decoration: none !important;
}
a:visited,
#Comments .CommentHeader span a:visited {
  color: #72DFAD !important;
  text-decoration: none !important;
}
a:hover {
  text-decoration: underline !important;
}
}

I am running Firefox and I do not find the page hard on the eyes at all.  I prefer the page white as it is and find your changes hard on the eyes.

[witch]

Also, serif fonts are easier to read than sans-serif

I disagree, for me, the reverse is true.

I also prefer black text on white page, although the white on blue is not too bad - certainly not when compared with the neon_on_black some web designers use, that's just criminal and makes me see coloured spots. I no longer bother to read pages in that format.

I have to agree, I find the white background easy to look at, and the blue makes my eyes hurt. I like crisp, functional web pages.

[MasterDinadan]

It's not good enough that you have an Awesome config tool to adjust every detail of AwesomeMod.

And it's not good enough because of the colors?

Maybe we need a config tool for the config tool.  Would you be happy then?

[Wolfeyes]

Ditto for me... as my eyes are a bit older than the average S3 Simmer... and the purely functional look is best...     

[witch]

Don't bet on that round here.

Some people just have to complain about everything. 
Don't like the decor you know how to find the door.

I don't think anyone here is suggesting a change to the page. It's all about personal choice and that is where Stylish is very handy. There are many different monitors, many different computers and many different people out there, all of which perform and perform differently, and prefer different things. Which is why you all disagree with each for various reasons. There is no Correct way, its simply preference.

If you guys want to keep the white page but wish to change font sizes, then take out the font and background colour changes in the script. While zoom page works for fonts, it doesnt allow for individual adjustment as in stylish.

The main reason I wished to change the background colour, is because I spend many hours staring at this screen, and late at night my eyes get a bit tired, so looking at a bright white light in a dimly lit room gets a little much. Also at high res those fonts do get a little small. I posted this script here so others can make use of it in any way they wish.

One of the many reasons i Prefer FF over hangy crashy IE. Google and IE got a similar treatment

I guess for IE users, you could do much the same with a greasemonkey script.

If you don't like what Pescado made, then make your own config page which will create the xml file and put it in a nice little package for you.
Then you can put out the money to pay for a forum somewhere else and post your neat colorful config tool which nobody here wants.
Function trumps the hell out of fashion.  We care that AWESOMEMOD works, that the config tool works and don't give a shit if the colors Pescado decided to use make your eyes bleed.  Heck, I wouldn't care if they made my eyes bleed... I don't plan on looking at them for hours on end, but rather just long enough to do what needs done.

[witch]

That's harsh. The OP was offering to share something. Some are interested, some are not, but I understand their reason for posting it and there's nothing wrong with that.

Please read the post above yours.

Witch, I wasn't aiming for harsh, merely blunt.  Anach posted a suggestion which was commented on adversely by several people, including El Presidente.

I don't think anyone here is suggesting a change to the page.

However, that is exactly what is being suggested by the person who posted that.  When someone says "I'm not saying you're doing it wrong, but here's how you are supposed to do that" it doesn't sit well with me.

Then why the fuck are you at this website? Don't you take offense at the fact that there are mods here that change what EA made? Why don't you give Pescado the same shit you're giving Anach? Using your logic, he should make a new people simulator game from scratch because modifying the Sims is telling people "I'm not saying you're doing it wrong, but here's how you are supposed to do that."

The fact that Anach posted a stylish script doesn't affect you AT ALL. He didn't tell Pescado to modify anything, he was simply offering something up for people to use.

You've missed the point. The OP was saying, 'if you want to look at the page differently, here's how'. And please spare me the 'El Presidente said so' too, we've seen plenty of suckups before.

True. Don't like it? Don't use it. Simple. I like it tho.

You're certainly interpreting it in a negative way, when all that was actually done, was that I posted a stylish script that allows the individual to tailor the font and colour choice of that page. At no time was it stated that "this must change to suit my needs!". If I wanted to do that, I wouldnt have bothered creating a script to alter it, i would have made a request instead. The reason this came about is mostly because my new 24 inch LCD is a little bright at 4AM when i'm tired, nothing more.

Like a mod for a game is one persons preference and attempt to make the game suit their own desires, the stylish script is nothing more than a mod for a web site to adjust it to suit the users preference. The fact that it's created is not a demand upon the original author, no more than your teen pregnancy mod is a demand that EA change Sims 3, or that every person must have it the way you prefer. Its all simply choice.
