    a little tinkering with html you can change your webv4 to how you want it.

    He also didn't say he was asking about modding his own BBS.. I understood his question as asking DM to add a dark theme to his (DM's) web site.

    I'm not sure The Millionaire is even running his own BBS yet..

    I think a completely disgusting theme with bright flashing colors that causes seizures would be a nice change.

    Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond my own control, I have to put my BBS on hold till next year now. I'm just as disappointed as you probably all are. I was getting ready to buy a new MSP and setup Synchronet when something suddenly cropped up at the spur of the moment unexpectedly and fell apart. Don't you just hate that when you make plans for something exciting and then something gets in the way of you that you have to take care of first instead and put other things on the side for a little while? It totally sucks pretty badly but oh well what can you do? C'est La Vie. (That's Life!) *sighs* :-(

    Let me explain myself for once here. I am not a real Millionaire. It's a pseudonym that I had given myself when I ran my BBS and just stuck with it ever since. Call it habitual I guess.

    Hey Dm. What about a dark website theme? That would look cool.

    It's pretty easy to do with css, and especially with Bootstrap, which ecwebv4 is built on.

    check out https://warensemble.com for an example.

    Are you referring to Vertrauen BBS specifically? You could always use bbs.synchro.net instead of vert.synchro.net, at least you'll get the webv4 UI. The way I see it is it all SysOp preference, kinda like buying a car; the people that buy the car choose what color it is, and the passengers may have a different preference, but they are, after all, passengers :-P You could modify one of the stock SBBS themes and pass it along to DM, he may install it for you.

    Personally, I modified my own theme, which is unique to http://alleycat.synchro.net:81 specifically, probably because it sucks monkey balls and no other sysop would want to use it :-P

    Well Dark mode is becoming a big thing with IPad now and possibly others will follow the trend eventually. Maybe websites will head also in the same direction as well. I think white is bright and hard on the eyes after a period of some time but black gives it a more peaceful easy feeling. DM's commitlog
    is dark. Just look at it here:

    A lot of Geocities websites would crash due to over use of bandwidth which would steer people away quickly from them.

    I don't know if they'd crash, but they'd return a bandwidth limit hit after
    a certain amount of bandwidth had been reached. What do you expect for free?

    What does it mean for a web site to "crash"? Their web servers segfaulted or stopped running due to being overwhelmed?
