The standardized admin warning thing for example is almost impossible to read. The faceclaims are difficult to read, but I believe those are going to be updated either way. The default color could be different as well. Might I suggest CE81BC, D88BC6, or E295D0? And since that appears to be close to links, CF8297 might work for them.
I may need members to give me updates on it then. As I may have to update those pages to suit both themes.
As for the fonts, I'll most likely msg you in discord and see which ones fit best with the theme.

Also, username colors should be double-checked if the dark theme is going to be the default. Henrex's, for example, is too dark. Some also just really clash with the colors, but those may be custom ones that wouldn't be fair to change.
And people will have to report that as well.

The text on the light theme is now a bright purple and it's really difficult to read.

So I went down the sidebar to the threads most new members would look at. Here are some that have some issues with the dark theme:
Skill Sheet System: The grey in there seems exceptionally blurry. It may be a shadow/glow problem.
Staff Conduct: Just needs a background and it'd be fine. Black on the standard dark BG is hard to read.
Who is this Faceclaim?: Same problem with the Skill Skeet System thread.
Iramasha Class Claim: Same problem as the Staff Conduct thread.
Sueki Information: Same problem as the Staff Conduct thread.
Fusion General: Same problem as the Staff Conduct thread.
Sacrificial Incantation Template: The actual thread title color needs to be changed. It's currently a dark red, so perhaps the standard red would work.
Fusion Template: Nigh-unreadable on the dark theme. Needs a new font color entirely.

Looking through what everyone has said, it may be better to keep our original theme. I am glad that you're giving the option based on preference. The dark theme, imo, is easier on the eyes, but breaks too many colors throughout the overall site. I prefer the site to be readable without having to jump through thread after thread to change the different colors. Also, having a white background gives people a sort of "canvas." It makes it easier to colorize templates without having it clash too much with the sites background.

[adm]Gonna archive this for now and work on something else down the line. Decided on sticking with the white theme.[/adm]
