Midnight Pub

Theme showcase

~brewed

I got inspired by Zeno and Jetgirl and wanted to list some themes for the pub! You can see the showcase on https://brewed.midnight.pub/themes.html. This post will be used to get new themes, so don't hesitate to reply here if you want to share one! Cheers

Huh. I thought I was looking at vanilla html, but Ctrl-U reveals a style.css.

Curious why an ordered list was used for the first couple chunks of text ("Midnight Pub" and "lounge"), but with the numbering of the "li" elements seemingly undone by style.css.

Not questioning it, nor am I opposed to themes. Just enjoy having that "Mosaic/Netscape back in earlier times" look/feel from time to time.

Haha that's a very good point. I've been obsessing over writing semantic HTML5. For breadcrumb navigation, it looks like the best practice is to use ordered lists. Which look very out of place without some css undoing. I am still very unsure about that part though.

I miss simpler internet!

Huh... cool about breadcrumb navigation best practice.

Of course, I'd forgotten about breadcrumbs altogether. :-)

On the theme of simpler internet, I include the following in case you've not been super down with read.write.as of late:

I love Gemini and how it brings simplicity. Really makes me want to learn more about it and potentially make Midnight accessible on the gemini space. Have you been experiencing gemini?

I've not, and probably won't so long as its effort to benefit ratio remains incompatible with how much time I have.

But I *did* experience some jam-in-i last night <coughs>, so....

Smudge took Zeno's theme and swapped out the colors. He might fancy things up a bit more later...

Smudge is full of surprises!

starbreaker

Yeah, he stole one of my old Thinkpads and installed Mewnix. I haven't gotten him to do my work for me at my day job yet, though. He probably could, though, but most likely thinks its beneath him. =^.^=

I actually just searched for mewnix. Low-key sad it doesn't exist... Thinkpads and cats - that's all we need!

reply

starbreaker

Smudge is actually using OpenBSD. He doesn't realize Mewnix isn't actually a thing. He's just a cat, after all. =^.^=

Changed the background and made it more pub-like. Could you update the image?

reply

brewed

Haha wow! Yes, for sure -- it definitely gives a nice vibe. Thanks for that!
