GamingBoards v2 was released yesterday, and with it the dark mode feature! (You can toggle this with the bright blue button on the far right of the screen)
Which do you prefer? The dark theme or the light theme?

This was a hard vote for me because I honestly love them both. However, I'll have to go with light if I have to choose.  We’re very excited to have finally launched the long-awaited “GBv2” theme upgrade. This is truly an amazing experience and we owe it all to our designer/theme creator elli! With that said, on behalf of the entire GamingBoards.net community, thank you, Elli!!

When it's dark around you it's good not to tire your eyes with a bright screen, that's why most websites/applications propose a dark theme. But when you're outside or in a place that's lighten up, the white theme doesn't hurt at all. I like 'em both but since dark theme is definitely going to win, I voted for the white one, and so that Danth won't be left out. ;p

Always dark when available. Reduces eye-strain.

I love the Dark Themes more than anything, they are easier on the eyes.

I prefer the dark theme because it's easier on my eyes. Although, I reallyyy like the light theme too!   |

I'm going to have to pick the light theme! I love the original look and feel, if it's too bright I simply dim the brightness on my monitor. But I will say, the dark mode is a pretty sweet new feature!!  |

I didn't even know you could change it till I came across this thread. I enjoy the dark, but it's really cool how you can just toggle between them!

This is weird so many like dark themes. I like dark themes - but I get so much heat online for it. Anyway, some feel dark only goes with the gaming niche - but I disagree. In fact, I use it for music instruction and webmaster/business niches (My forum is sort of a light-hearted business site.). I don't see the big deal really - but I can see why, for instance, a baby-care site wouldn't be black - LOL. What do most people prefer based on studies?Most prefer light with a large minority thinking the choice depends on the niche. problogger.com/light-or-dark-blog-backgrounds-poll-results/ |
