    UnDeserved: FiM/EqG's terrible moral

    I watched entirely too much pony this morning. It got me thinking.

    EqG 1: Sunset Shimmer not granted higher power by Celestia, takes Element of Magic, becomes demon.
    2(RR): Sirens not granted magic by default, must take it, are demonized for their acts. (weakest version)

    Explaining Pinkie Sense: Pwny Pony Pinkie, Brainhacker Extraordinaire

    So I've produced several (mostly scientifically-worthless but possibly making for good stories) hypotheses here:
    1. Pinkie's social powers and memory derive from memory-hacking everypony she meets. Ponies, specifically.
    1b. This is pid (pony ID) based, so pool clones do not benefit; this is whgat Pinkie actually acts like without her mental powerup.

Stylish: Green the navbar · 10:50pm Jun 5th, 2017

Also probably of interest: DiscoPanda84’s Removing that rounded boundary or, the one you’ve all wanted, re-coloring the genre tags

v2: now broken out into non-hex variables for easy customizability.
v3: now with text-to-white
v3.1: now not setting the submenu items to white-on-white by adding a child-selector
v4: hey it was never white. Also, grabbed remaining colors from screenshots of archived version and implemented hover (with fixes to dropdown menus so they don’t get weird)
v4.1 semicolon. ^^;
v5 height of navbar, missing selector, remove allcaps-conversion, submenu hovercolor fix. Can’t figure quite how to manage to not make the icons do something different, but it’s close enough now.
v5.1 restore dividers
v5.2 remove the margin on View Mature that was letting it be wrongly greened

Text on the navbar buttons is showing bright blue for me with that, might crib off of https://userstyles.org/styles/96056/fimfiction-net-custom-user-toolbar-color to fix that.

(I tried using that script I linked to with colors taken from an archive.org Wayback Machine copy of the site, but it was still blue to the sides of the buttons, so maybe combining the two into one script...? Yeah, a lot of my CSS coding is a bit of a hackjob sometimes, should see the stylesheet I made for /r/MyLittleChangeling on reddit for a real patchwork job, though...)

Also, here’s a script I just made to fix the stupid rounded avatars:

ps. you can set the language with [codeblock=css]

Oh hey, made a few tweaks to your code to make the green colors look more like the old site, it’s still not *quite* the same but it looks *much* closer for me now, what do you think?

How do you install the rounded avatars script?

4560304
Good catch. Added text color.

Went and grabbed the colors off that archived version, realized I hadn’t implemented hover, added THAT, realized it screwed up the menu colors, found what the old version did, implemented that…
and I put them all up top as variables this time, even if they’re no longer quite as obvious how to edit.

Thanks! What all languages are available for syntax highlighting, anyway? (Might want to put that on the so-useful BBcode help page rather than here!)

Basically every language you can imagine.

I think you said that to the wrong person. :twilightsmile:

lda #$00
sta $2000 ;tried NES, 6502, asm, 2a03
if foo = 0 and then bar = 2
then
	go_submarineman();
else
	earth_is_doomed();
end if;
chr_a[2:0] = ppu_a[2:0] ^ {3{is_chr_access & vert_flip}};
DO
LOOP UNTIL INKEY$ = CHR$(32)
GOSUB MARINEMAN  ‘tried qbasic, quickbasic
(cdr (cons (cons foo bar) dat)

I believe that’s four to nine strikes (1-3 outs?) (Don’t feel any obligation to implement syntax highlighting for these languages :twilightsmile:)
