One more addition would be nice #45

Thanks for writing this! Very slick. Even though I would like to change the template now and then I understand your reasons. What I would like is to add one more color option - background color. It would be much appreciated.

I enjoyed reading your dev blog also about md2blog. Well done!

Good point! I should make the background color configurable.

The biggest hurdle is that only "dark" themes currently will work because the stylesheet uses color to distinguish links, headings, etc., and this is usually not sufficient for "light" color schemes. Honestly, the best approach in the long term would probably be for me to switch to some minimal/classless stylesheet that was written by an actual designer who knows what they're doing (as opposed to me).

Yes, have you seen Kev Quirk's website. He wrote simplecss and it just may be what we need here -

Thanks! I had also been looking at https://lissomware.github.io/css/ but Simple.css looks better in light mode.

Here's a site I recently found with nice colors and a button to switch between them (at the end of the menu). Looks like text, background and links are the only colors changing. I guess it flips between 2 css files.
