Have incorporated them into the theme. Thanks again!

Honestly, my initial reaction was similar to that of Typoz: it struck me as an overly aggressive colour. It grew on me though, and now that we're back to the original logo colouring, I'm kind of wondering whether we should have gone with the pink after all. I miss its bold brashness with which we were acquainted perhaps all too briefly.

Ah, that's because I simply and mistakenly assumed you meant the dark scheme of the theme, so that's the only one that I adjusted. I've now adjusted the light scheme too.

No worries - the thought did cross my mind that it was a settings issue, but I figured that given that you'd apparently suddenly stopped seeing them with the new theme, it couldn't have been, so I didn't suggest it. I didn't take into account that you were sometimes visiting anonymously.

I suppose it's always possible to have a rethink. Since I tend to prefer the old theme, my view doesn't matter too much in terms of how the Roundo theme(s) appear. I notice Max mentioned an attachment to the colour. I think I had a somewhat subliminal response as the colours reminded me of an ex-employer's logo. Maybe it's difficult to be neutral on these things.

Anyway, thanks to @Max_B for the work, and to yourself Laird of course.

Is there a dark version equivalent of Roundo? Would be nice for dark theme users. Smile

Click the theme selector dropdown at the bottom of the page... to roundo (test of colour mode switching).

Then at the top right of the page you will see a sun, and a moon icon... click the moon icon to go dark mode!
We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring 
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

Cheers! Smile

Some elements are seemingly a bit bright comparative to the surrounding elements, alas. Examples:

I can't reproduce this. It shows up like this for me:

Is it still showing up differently for you? If so, can you provide some further details, such as which browser you're using? Can you also try force-refreshing your page using whichever key combo is appropriate for your browser, e.g., ctrl+shift+R?

Yep, fair enough - I'd ignored the editor until now but it should be darkened. I'll look into how best to do that at some point.

Firefox Nightly.

Force-refreshing the page does change anything for me.

@Valmar, do you see any errors in Firefox's Web Developer Tools console? You can generally bring up Developer Tools simply by pressing F12, otherwise you can find it in the menu under "More tools".
Oh, and, be sure to click "CSS" to show CSS errors.
