A preview at a Dark Brown CSS

After a long wait, you all get to see one of the stylesheets I made! So far, I only have a dark brown one ready, but I'll hopefully have the others soon. And I'm not completely finished with it, there are still some things I need to work out. But you can all see what it's like now.

Here's the link:

And here are a few screenshots:

Known bugs:

1. When viewing an FAQ, it still uses the background image used everywhere else on GameFAQs, and still uses white text.
2. On the very bottom of a FAQ, it has the GameSpot header, which is chopped off. This shouldn't be there at all; it should just be a solid color.
3. User highlighting doesn't work.
4. In the annotated TOU, the blue text is hard to read. I can't figure out how to make it a different color, because the blue text doesn't use a class; it's only declared by <span style="color: blue;">[blue text]</span>.

Other than that, it should be great! This one is really easy on the eyes compared to some of the stylesheets I have had in the past. I tested it in both Firefox 2 and Firefox 3, and they work fine in both. The text boxes are now black again!

Oh, and this stylesheet is designed for the Default site setting (Default 2 works just as well). Default Blue also sorta works, if you don't mind the missing borders at the top and bottom of the post headers. None of the others work with this stylesheet at all.

span[style] { color: #whatever; }

Awesome.

Don't forget to change that horrible yellow color used on the correct responses in the new Answers feature. I clashes with the Dark themes... really bad.

What I would love would be for the darkred ones and TOAD to be mixed into a wider darkfaqs.

Or just have a GUI tool to make these so this board doesn't devolve into a.m.o's theme page with all the RedShift/YellowShift/* crapflooding.

good job Charizard!

For bug 3
Change line 222 to:

#content tr:not([class*="gamefox-highlight"]).even td:not([class*="gamefox-highlight"]),#content tr:not([class*="gamefox-highlight"]).even td:not([class*="gamefox-highlight"]) {

Change line 401 to:

#content #board_wrap tr:not([class*="gamefox-highlight"]) td:not([class*="gamefox-highlight"]), .board th {

Change line 405 to:

#content #board_wrap tr:not([class*="gamefox-highlight"]).even td:not([class*="gamefox-highlight"]),.board tr.even th {

Fixing bug 1 could get messy. It looks like all GameFAQ pages use #container except the txt files. You could rewrite the background image into the #container and give it some padding. Might get messy. Might work. Might fail.

span[style] { color: #whatever; }

Do you know offhand if that affects anything else (i.e. are there other <span> tags)?

That has a similar problem to the blue text in the ATOU, where there is no class for it. In this case, a correct response goes like this:
<tr><td style="background: rgb(255, 255, 160) none repeat scroll 0% 0%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;">[text]<br><br></td></tr>

Whoa, your solution actually worked. For some reason, it didn't seem to before (I was probably doing something wrong)... but now it does. Awesome.

As for the background image thing, I may try out something like that, but it isn't terrible anyway. And that bug has been around since the beginning anyway...

From what I remember, there are no other spans with a style attribute throughout GameFAQs.
