A minimalist style for metafilter with customizable colors.
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.
Makes the individual posts on the front page of most of the subsites more visually separate.
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
For people who don't like white text. See also Ask.Metafilter - Pastel Green
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.
Nice long lines of black text on a white background, with no sidebars, no colours, and no images. Gives you all the joy of Metafilter, without any of the conspicuous blue or green.
If, like me, you've been staring at the Blue for 10 years now, it gives you a purple background instead.
This widens the somewhat narrow live comment preview box in Metafilter (the one that appears under where you type a comment).
metafilter is going downhill fast. We need to stop snitching to the mods. This script removes the ability to flag posts.
