So here’s step two (Long over-due I know) – where I’ve updated the nickname colors for people.

Was having the issue where in a somewhat active channel – too many people had the same color nickname which would drive me crazy. People I don’t really read who said what, I sort of look of the pretty bright colors.

So here it is! Enjoy.

So while I love having a dark theme, I still miss my IRSSI and it’s colors incredibly.  Thus work on a new theme is under way.  Working from the default style sheet and viewing how Jussi used some of the latest tags to color his theme.

Jussi has a more full version of his theme (which colors more than just the text window) which is yet to be updated in the theme screenshot section on the Quassel website – goto the repo browser for quassel to find the latest version or I might post it here later.  These new tags he’s used are awesome but have left me completely confused when editing on mine.

Thus this version of my theme is at the moment, only the text area.  With more time I’ll complete the rest of the app’s theme and adjust some of the nick-name colors as well as the action color.

Certainly like my Quassel.  While I don’t have time to post about the awesomeness (and the downsides against command-line-junkies-dream IRSSI), I do require my theme to be online/available.

Based on Jussi’s Darktheme (on the Quassel website) but a tad easier color contrasts in the main text area and back to default-ish colors in the nickname and chat-lists.

Edit:  Bit of an after though, the font is Consolas (between 10pt and 12pt is nice) – typically MS font.
