"Slogging off at work" Forum Theme

Gritz · November 03, 2006, 08:34 AM

I know this is kind of an off-the-wall idea, but is there a way you can make a theme that has a plain vanilla white blackground, no avatar images and black text? My Den trolling has dropped to an unacceptable level (office move, zero privacy now, been using copy/paste and WordPad to read/reply :P ) and I think that many of us would benefit from some type of "stealth" theme.

Thank you for your time

that would be nice, for me as well. at school the nazi people in the library are always patrolling.

If you use Firefox, go into the fonts and colors options, set text to black, background to white, and disallow websites from using their own colors. Religiously disable images and voila, fairly generic stealth browsing. Doesn't work well for all websites but good enough for trolling most forums >.>

I used to use a product called GhostZilla that did this for you (redefine to black on white, hide all graphics.. actually, it had settings to control this) and it did it inside the frame of whatever program you had currently open.

If your mouse left the document area.. it would revert.

Pretty stealthy. I have not used in years.. but it seems to still exist: Ghostzilla - the invisible browser

i used to use this also, was awesome, it worked wonders while on somethin that not "school related"

Yeah I used to use Ghostzilla too. Very cool program. I'm not sure it's being actively developed any more though.

thank you!

I know this is an old thread, but I've been having a bit of a play (bored) with an "at work theme". Basically I want to keep you all here as much as possible!

It's basically just white everything with black text. It's selectable under your User CP > Edit Options > Scroll to the bottom. Let me know what you think...

That is pretty stealthy, I like purple tho...

*Akasha* · June 29, 2008, 03:31 AM

Same, although purple was always a glaringly obvious "I'm not working" give away heh...
