i think we should all create our own Mturk forum
that way if one closes it would be like a hydra with all the other forums up

mine will be turking4tacos.me

I already have a clone of this forum setup on another domain.

Yeah, it's hard for me to judge because I can't generally stand light themes, but I think a default theme needs to be light-ish. I'm tempted to very slightly darken it, to make it a little easier on the eyes, but I'm worried that I'll go overboard and it will just be too much grey.

Why isn't dark theme default anyway?

I added a purple version of the default green "Scratch" theme/style for the forum. If anyone would like to try it and give me feedback on what you think of it, I would appreciate it. Kinda considering even changing the default style, so I would like to iron out any issues before that happens.

You should be able to see it by changing the style in your preferences or by clicking the style name at the bottom of the page.

I like purple, but not that purple. Too much blaring bright whiteness for me anyway. I needs that good old darkness. Might try the purple with the dark style?

 

[alk69]

It's not bad, but still to much white. Maybe non-dark themers will like it. Trying it on top of dark theme might be nice.

I see I'm too slow...as usual.

I had a teacher in college who brought up MTurk as a way to make money using computers. It was weird. Also, I was too embarrassed to tell her that I knew what it was.

I just assume most people are psychotic and prefer lighter themes. You know, those types that allow sunlight in through their windows and stuff.

Who are these messed up people?

 

[turkleton]

Also, I think I signed up for MTG, saying "I'm only going to turk till I find something better." And now I'm no longer turking.

What about something like Antiquark gray background? Not too dark, not too light maybe?

Gross.

I think Antiquark does a light theme right. If I do darken this one, I'll probably try to go off those colors.

Wait. There's sunlight? You mean outside? Out of doors, where the other people and cars and all are? I bet there are trees and such, too....how outre.

If you go outside, there is a chance something could kill you. Inside, you're safe. Though I guess you could die inside too, cause you could choke on a grape and no one would there to help you.
