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.

    Andy?

    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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
