    I made some custom themes for the user profile, mostly for myself and because I was bored, but figured someone might actually like them. :slight_smile: Also, if you have a custom theme that you would like to share, I would love to see it. So post away! :lol:

    Click the "spoiler" tag under a theme name to view what it looks like, and click the "Spoiler" inside to see the color values that need to be set.

    How to use the themes:
    • Go to your profile.
    • Click "Customize Profile" on the top right of the box where you see your last and current activity.
    • Fill in the values given for the theme. Make sure you put the values in the right boxes. Values for options not listed have to be empty. For example, if under "Block Borders" you only have "Background Color", you only fill in the "Background Color" field and leave the other options under "Block Borders" empty.

    To make this easier, it is best if you open your profile in a tab or window of its own, or copy the values you need to change into a text editor or something. Hope my explanation of how to use these themes makes sense. :slight_smile:

    I find profiles which custom background images to be the best. It makes the profile seems more personal.

    I like how your "About Me" section looks with that image as background. :slight_smile: Did you draw/paint these images yourself?

    That's what I like the look of best, but for easy of reading I prefer a lighter shade of the main theme colour.

    That is as readable it is going to get it took me a while to make it just right. Besides people can always hide the customization when viewing my profile if they find it hard to read.

    These are pretty nice. I especially like the "cartoon lover" theme the most, but I'm fine with the one I made.

    I like the Barbie and Midnight ones the best. My second choice is the Blue-Love one.

    Ooh, I really like your theme!! A rainbow theme is a must on EC, plus I love colors! :lol: The only changes I would make would be:

    • All hyperlinks to #FFFFFF for readability. Makes names of people who post on your wall and such easier to read, and also the "permalink" link more visible.
    • Shaded color to perhaps #D5D5FF to make the text (Last Activity, timestamps etc) more readable, but still separate from the hyperlinks and normal white text.
    • Make the Minor Block Headers yellow #FFE000 instead of #FFCC00 to bring the yellow to life a bit more, but still not make it so bright that it dominates the theme.
    • Make the Major Block Headers current bronze color a more brilliant orange, that is between red and yellow without blending with either. I used #FF7700 for it.
    Neither of those have to be exactly the colors I used, but any light shade would work for either. These are just my preferences. Just make sure the text is readable on all tabs (About Me, Statistics etc).

    Really nice theme you made! :slight_smile: I will leave it on my profile for the rest of the day so you can see the changes I made in action. And also because I like the theme. :grin:

    Drednaught, Kaiser, thank you! I had a lot of fun making them. :slight_smile:

    happydavid, your theme is very 80s! :lol: I love the 80s for the color madness.

    ---------- Post added 1st May 2015 at 02:28 PM ----------

    I meant to say any light shade would work for either the hyperlinks and shaded text colors. Looks like I forgot to write half the sentence. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I got really carried away with your theme. I decided to change some colors to match the intensity of others, because the blue and red especially were dominating the theme with their brilliance. I hope you don't think I softened the colors too much. Here's the final theme:

    Haha, I was waiting for someone to comment on that! It's a cartoon theme, the one and only valid time to use Comic Sans! :lol:

    The cartoon lover is spot on!



    Idk what to name my own theme. I just want it to be blue and grey, the shade of red isn't too eye-shocking, very subtle. Oh, shoot I know what to call it now. "Steele & Blue (with period blood on the side)"

    I'm curious what you could do with these colors:

    Royal Purple

    Slate Gray

    Electric Blue

    Neon Bubblegum


    Not necessarily all together in one scheme, but mix and match.

    I would have made the links white, but I couldn't resist working that Electric Blue in there too. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: I hope it's not too much pink, I wasn't sure which color you would prefer as main color. So I picked pink because I like it. :lol:
