Multicolor Theme Issues - Oni - 05-29-2014

This thread is dedicated to issues/suggestions related to the Multicolor beta theme. If you run into an issue or have a suggestion, post here. Don't make a new thread. It's very disorganized and makes it harder for me to keep up with the issues. I will be closing all issues now, so repost them here.

Currently acknowledged issues:

Slight delay before color changes (Somewhat Fixed)
People want different styling on the color changer (Fixed)
Assembly icon missing (Fixed)

There's a slight (2-3 second) delay between loading the images and the color changing. Also, I feel like Mod/Admin Usernames should change color with the theme. It seems off with a blue theme and red usernames.

I think those colors remain static for a reason, so the Mods and Admins are noticeable for everyone throughout the forum and people won't get confused.

Assembly's image under the Coding forum still seems to be broken.

Please change the menu to this soft gradient;

Code:
background: #0b0b0b;
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top,  #0b0b0b 0%, #080808 2%, #270808 4%, #c52727 6%, #811919 8%, #791515 24%, #5f1111 43%, #510c0c 53%, #500d0d 80%, #531111 88%);
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,#0b0b0b), color-stop(2%,#080808), color-stop(4%,#270808), color-stop(6%,#c52727), color-stop(8%,#811919), color-stop(24%,#791515), color-stop(43%,#5f1111), color-stop(53%,#510c0c), color-stop(80%,#500d0d), color-stop(88%,#531111));

RE: Multicolor Theme Issues - Equinox - 05-29-2014

Not really much of an issue, just more of a suggestion, and I've mentioned it before. Feels like the colour selection just floats in the air and that it needs a holder.

Spoiler: Theme color holder - If needed, I could also make another version.Code:
#theme_styler {
position: absolute;
z-index: 9999;
top: -30px;
right: -1px;
padding: 10px;
border-radius: 6px;
background: transparent url(https://www.sinister.ly/images/e-red/container_bg.png) top left repeat;
border-right: 1px solid #383838;
border-top: 1px solid #383838;
}

An interesting idea. Not sure if I like it. My biggest pain with the theme is the loading issues.

They can be remedied by storing the users colour choice in the database and including the stylesheet with PHP before the page loads.

For some reason I actually think that this looks more odd than the floating around...

Maybe you could move them to the top-right corner of the logo container thing?

you know @duubz ...
A little like this?

Why don't you ask questions from Cake. He seems to have a better solution to color changing themes.

This is where my suggestion comes in...

One other issue is that the PM notification is still red.

Well, I think it looks cool.
