Just wondering which theme everyone prefers the most; Light or Dark?

The results may help me decide which theme to make as the default.

At the moment the Light theme is the default so most people will be using that one and many may not even be aware that there is now a Dark Mode of Demonland.

To switch to the Dark Mode (or back to the Light Mode) navigate to the bottom of the page. Towards the left hand side there is an icon of a Crescent Moon. Click that to switch to Dark Mode. Click the Light Bulb next to it to switch back to Light Mode.

So which one do you prefer?

    I thought this was another thread about measuring Demonlanders’ collective psyche. Disappointing.

    Can’t say as I haven’t worked out how to change it from light.

    If on your phone, scroll to the bottom - the icons highlighted below switch the mode.

    Dark mode seems highly appropriate currently

    How about Red Mode in a few weeks if we keep losing by 10 goals? blink

    Darkness is all appropriate for the Dees long suffering collective at the present time.

    Not sure but dark mode might be better for battery life.

    To be brutally honest I wasn't mad on the new format. I'm probably not mad on change in general.

    Until I switched to dark mode. It's great.

    Don't set a default, just let people choose. That way everyone's happy.

    I need to choose a default theme for the site that is presented to visitors.

    Currently, it's set to Light, allowing users the option to switch to Dark Mode if they prefer. Alternatively, I can set the default to the Navy Dark Theme, with the option for users to switch back to Light.

    Either way, users will always have the flexibility to pick their preferred theme. I'm simply looking for some guidance on what the default should be, as many users aren't aware they have the option to switch and usually stick with what's presented initially. This poll is designed to help me gauge member preferences and make an informed decision on what should be the best look and feel of Demonland to visitors to the site.

    Loved dark as soon as I switched to it. It's the navy blue with red user names and white text. It's the Guernsey colours and different to all the other websites I visit.

    I'm surprised that there are so many picking the light theme in the poll.

    I'm usually dark mode all the way, but for some reason I prefer light mode for this site. I find the topics list clearer that way. Maybe I need more time to adjust.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
