Please, post here default CT screen with your favorite theme and the theme name. My one is next:

Theme: Solarized Dark

@Alexey-T @kvichans @JairoMartinezA @OlehL @tmsg-gh @halfbrained and others :)

I just want to know if there are other good themes I have skipped.

I have one inspired on Intellij Idea darcula theme colors... I will post in a couple hours. I am moving away the house :) family business...

Not much here, my eyes just need book-yellow background and high-contrast text to be happy theme

I hate dark theme. I think this is a fashion as smoking in XX century Only black/blue on light-gray bg!

JairoMartinezA commented 3 years ago

@kvichans my setup is the opposite of yours - as many color as possible for me :D

my is similar to @kvichans… and also not big fan of dark theme /respect that it is ok for someone else… sure…/ Screenshot 2021-02-28 212213

@halfbrained Your theme is good, but not for me. Main failing (imho) of dark theme is eye damage (as smoking harm to the lungs)

I use a slightly customized Zeus theme with Adobe's 11pt Source Code Pro font on a 30" monitor with 110 dpi (see screenshot below).

I became aware that (at least for me) at daytime it is better to use a light theme and at night when we have to work with artificial light (which is never that bright as sunlight) it is better to use a dark theme.

But a dark theme should not be too dark. A very dark gray as background color and slightly dimmed light colors for the foreground is the best for my eyes. All this is true for Zeus theme. Since I mainly use CudaText for hobby projects, which I mostly work on in the evenings, Zeus is the perfect theme for me.

Thanks, guys. I was surprised that many like grey themes (I personally don't like it), but anyway. If someone have a theme you like to add, please do. But we also can close this issue down.
