Thanks to @Mtt & @rcrackley, I’m now using a different and quite nice Micro.blog theme for the first time in many years! I’m quite happy with the final results. Hope that you enjoy the change as much as I do!

PS. There are a few things that I’d like to tweak, but that will be for another day!

@numericcitizen Looking pretty good! How'd you implement the icon set that puts the Micro.blog icon in the conversation button?

@Mtt thanks! Where do you set the blue background behind the webpage during scroll down of the page in Safari, at the very top?

@rcrackley done. The more ways to get in touch with a blogger, the better!

@rcrackley how did you learn CSS? This is such an arcane language

@numericcitizen You can currently do it by using a custom theme on top. BUT, I would hold off on that for a couple days. There's an update I hope to push out this week to make it easier.

@Mtt Oh, thanks! let's expand on this idea of a plugin customizing a base visual theme. Why not add the following: button colors, background images, etc.?

@Mtt tested it on Safari, background color settings doesn't get honoured AFAIK

@numericcitizen All of those changes can be made within the CSS editor of Micro.blog. The browser color requires a plugin to change (or a child theme).

@numericcitizen Unfortunately, CSS is the driving force of modern web design. There is a use-case for color picker and drop down style editing, but the platform isn’t in that place yet.
