Newgrounds 2004 Theme

Posted by solitonmedic - January 9th, 2019

I've always been meaning to do this for sometime now, so here it is: a complete throwback of the '04 days! Take a glimpse to what NG used to look like back then with this Stylus theme!


Known bugs:


  • Weird artifacts might appear in your userpage and notifications
  • Might not actually boost load speeds
  • BBS splitter blends a bit too well with the background
  • Submission ratings are too small and barely noticable (at present there's no known fix without breaking parts of the site)

Features: 


  • The classic NG look and colors
  • Functional forum icons (one of them even animates, just like old times!)
  • Lightweight, so it'll play nice with mobile (It'll actually boost site load speeds!)
  • Appiles to everything except userpages, the portal (and instances where the site will use the '15 theme)
  • The original splitter from the old layouts
  • Background and assets is optimized to work with the current 2018-19 theme
  • Does not remove ads (why would you do that? you could already remove ads)

  • 4.) (Edge users only) Go to Tampermonkey's dashboard, set "Run at:" to 'document-body'. Leave everything as-is.

  • That's it, you're good to go!


How to update:


  • 1.) Click on Stylus' icon and click on 'Manage'.

How do i install this on mobile?

I'm still trying to figure a method for that..

For now, this change is only for computers for now. It's possible you can run this up from scripts but I still need to look that up.

@KieranBurgen

You can actually install the theme as userscripts! If you have Tampermonkey for Android, it's possible you can take advantage of the theme.

Download the user-script here! https://userstyles.org/styles/userjs/167650/newgrounds-2004-ver-02.user.js

@KieranBurgen haven't tried it out myself but IIRC Firefox on android supports extensions out of the box, so I think Tampermonkey can be installed on it and this installed afterwards

Amazing work! I really appreciate what you've done with this.

is there a 2008 version?

Not yet, but I'm considering it!
