Improves the contrast of www.metafilter.com (the blue), ask.metafilter.com (the green), and metatalk.metafilter.com (the gray). Update (20080607): add metatalk style, tweak new bestleft class for author's comments, darken background for related questions box
This userstyle attempts to strip an individual thread down to its very basics. It's best when used in conjunction with Metafilter - Metafilter Gray. That's not intended to be cross-promotional; it's just based on the environment in which I developed it.
This CSS changes the look of www.metafilter.com from the murky blue it's well known for to a cleaner, simpler white. No more reverse color theme. Higher contrast and much easier to read. I think I got most of the important elements, but please let me know if I missed anything.
For people who don't like white text. See also Ask.Metafilter - Pastel Green
Does what it says on the tin. (I fixed it so the logo link still takes you home) New! (10/31) Changes favorite counts to read "meefed" instead of "faved" All sites now bear the logo. New! (11/1) If you favorite a comment, it will show a star next to the remove favorite link.
For wide screens, narrow the margin of Metafilter.
Love the site, hate the style. I based this off of two other styles I found here, Metafilter Baby Blue and Metafilter Just the Story. It could probably use improvement, but it's working well for me. Much more readable, removes the ads (I'd prefer to leave them in to support the site, but the iframes carry the old styling).
I took the Metafilter White user style (by jreid), spliced in some code from other sources, and came up with this, for the purpose of a more low-contrast style than the black-on-white of Metafilter White. UPDATE (3/28/2010): I noticed I had forced a font choice, and that it was causing errors on smaller screens; removing those lines seems to have done the trick. UPDATE (5/8/2010): I may have finally fixed a display bug that involved the unboldfacing of a navigation link while hovering over it.
This removes all comments, the comment box and live preview, and a few other comment-related elements from Metafilter and MetaTalk posts.
Use the old style favorites on Metafilter.
