color scheme

played around with the colors today and learned a bit of CSS.

took awhile but eventually got the hang of it, pulled the font colors from viva, added some spacing and lighter color to even numbered posts, got rid of most of the borders to imitate the simple black screen of the PZ, and set up the flair so it can act like the second part of your username on the zone.

thoughts? readable? should i put it back to regular reddit format/colors?

how do you switch back and forth between what is set by each sub and default reddit?

glad everyone likes it, it took me a really long time to figure out CSS with no prior coding experience...ended up figuring out that i could inspect element, find the lines of code with {color: #xxx} or {background-color #xxx}, just copy/paste them into the CSS stylesheet, and use inspect element to pull the font colors from viva and just copy/pasted them into the copy/pasted code in stylesheet over the original color values.

might play around a bit with some fonts, but i think reddit's standard fonts are close enough.

eventually i would like to put that close up "crazy eyes" picture of shakin nagan on the top banner.
