I’m not really sure what’s up with userstyles.org lately. I checked it just now though, and it appears to be working normally. I did a search for “blf” and it returned several results including both of mine.
About hiding posts, it only needs one line per user. There’s no need to repeat the same UID more than once and if it’s only one person then only the last line is needed. The lines before that, ending in a comma, are optional in case people want to hide more than one person.
Or, instead of hiding people, it can be used to style posts on a per-person basis. For example, sb’s posts are usually important so I have those styled with a green banner and a bigger brighter font to make sure I’ll notice.

I haven’t looked into styling thread titles in the list, but it likely would need selectors based on text content instead of class or ID or anything like that… so it may require really recent CSS features or javascript.

wanted to do hide the Animated Banner at the top of Netflix
It’s typically a lot easier to do this with an ad blocker plugin. Some have the ability to right-click on the thing you want to remove, select “hide this”, and then drag a slider to select exactly how much to remove. Same effect, but it only takes a few seconds.
thanks
I used adblocker to determine the .JawboneContainer label to use in Stylus, to hide the opening banner on Netflix..
have not learned how to use adblocker to block that particular animaterd banner element on Netflix
I do have all the banner ads on a couple websites blocked, thanks to adblock right clicks.. but for some reason, it was not that easy with netflix, so I had to use Stylus
I dont have a good understanding of the apps..
and
the netflix style I posted has an unintended consequence,
I lost the ability to see individual previews that I actually want to see..
thanks for the intro to stylus
ive not even scratched the surface, but so far so good
If you don’t see any problems on your end though, there shouldn’t be any need to update. I updated it because the subscription page had sad faces all over from a broken tinypic link.
Is it fixed? Im still seeing something weird on the ‘title/author/last comment/unsubscribe’ header. Im not seeing full sad faces….. just the yellow tops of their heads….Do I need to update something?

Im not a Pessimist …. just an Optimist with a lot of experience
Coscar, I updated and it was so easy I couldn’t believe it! I clicked on the Styles “S” in the bar at the upper right of the screen, then clicked options, it opened up in a new window and I saw an updates button, clicked it and it pretty rapidly downloaded the update TK applied…piece of cake. Closed the new window and right before my eyes the yellow smiley top-of-their-heads vanished.
Thanks Dale………. I tried that and it seemed like it did d/l an update, but it didnt apply for some reason…..Now all I see is an ‘update styles’ button that doesnt seem to do anything……. its saying Sept 10 was the last update but its still there….. just my ‘murphy’s law’ life.

Hmm… not sure what failed, but I pushed up a really minor change just now so it should be possible to attempt an update again.
If that still doesn’t work, it might be necessary to copy/paste the code into the edit widget in Stylus. Or maybe uninstall and reinstall the theme. Not sure which would be better for forcing an update.
Update works fine for me. Done 2 days ago, on Firefox browser. No more bright yellow bald heads at the top of the “Recent posts” page. Thanks, ToyKeeper!
Once in a while I like to check the members list, it’s always staggering to me how many members we have and how so few are actually online. Getting close to 30,000 members, rare to see 100 online at one time.
Just now I looked, we have 29,660 members with 49 signed in at present. Kinda sad really that we can’t get higher participation than that. Not many giveaways happening at the moment I guess…

It looks like an external dependency broke today, so I did a quick minor theme update on userstyles.org.
Thanks a lot for staying on top that!

Are you able to show what changes you made exactly?
I don’t want to re-download the updated theme from userstyles.org because it’s going to override all the customizations I’ve made on my end.
Thanks.
Here are the exact changes:

FYI, that one offending link (http://i49.tinypic.com/344twz9.png) is in one other place inside your CSS. You can see it when you go to forum statistics at the bottom of this page:
http://budgetlightforum.com/forum
Thanks, I almost never look at the /forum page. Anyway, the stats box is fixed now.

I feel like BLF isn't complete without this dark theme
My lights: 219c D4V2, 219c Noctigon Meteor M43, SST20 4000k D4V2 Ti, xpl Hi V3 3A D4SV2, SST20 5000k KR4 (MULE), 219b FF ROT66 v2, Olight s1 mini baton CW.
Yep, now I'm totally into dark themes for every site that I use.
Unfortunate, some sites don't have a good looking dark theme like BLF After Dark.

By the way, I think most web browsers have extensions or add-ons that enable dark mode for websites.
For Chromium-based browsers, I like the extension "Super Dark Mode."
I think BLF After Dark is better than using Super Dark Mode, but SDM is good for websites that don't have an excellent dark mode option.

I ditched Super Dark Mode.
Now I'm using the extension Midnight Lizard.
It makes adjusting some colors easy.
I don't use it on some sites, like BLF, but it's nice for other sites.
