I think having this dark space theme is a great idea, because that's how WinWorld always looked, ever since the beginning. Maybe you could find a way to add stars in the background as well.
However, one disadvantage of the dark space theme is that it used to sometimes make me a little nauseous, going from the WinWorld tab to a tab with a white layout. This was prior to the reset in 2017, way before I had my WinWorld account, but I did use the site to download stuff at that time.
To be honest, I'm used to the default look for this site now (maybe because I prefer light themes over dark) but this is good for anyone to reminisce of the good ol' days
I've been making something that shows quite a bit of suggestions for the this "WinWorld classic" theme. These contain some features that may not already be included in WinWorld.
Yes, I included the new WinWorld logo
And along with that, I also made a suggestion for how the forum would be like with this theme.
Went ahead and pruned it for you. If you hover your mouse over a post, a small "gear" icon will appear in the upper right that you can click on to bring up a menu that should let you edit or delete a post for up to a couple of hours after posting it.
Apparently that is somehow "better" than just having an "Edit" or "Delete" link directly on the post.

Just tried it out and it looks cool!
I really love the old style and missed it. Just stumbled across this topic and tried it. Thank you very much!
And i found a bug. If i search, the highlighted keyword is only visible when marking it. It has same foreground like background I suspect.
Screenshot attached. Maybe you'll fix this. Anyway, thanks again.

@sdose, thanks for pointing that out. There were a few other bugs I wanted to fix anyways.
@JonathonWyble, I haven't updated the screenshot yet, but the starry background is in the header.
Nice to see that you're still around and still interested in your project.
I use github for "long-term-storage" and pushing me to "make-things-right-before-publishing" and from there I know far too much abandoned projects.

I've moved this into Announcements and stickied it, so it's not buried in the Programming forum.
Thank you very much for this userstyle! I really liked the old website design and this brings me a lot of good memories
Cheers and keep up the excelent work lad.
