How to customize the colors, sizes? + Lichess v2 feedback

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a way in the preferences or with some command to customize the color of the text, or the sizes in general. I find the text too bright now depending on the background. Compared to other people, the look of the website has not been completely destroyed for me on Firefox but I had to zoom out to 80% first to get a decent visual experience on the main page wich looks less harmonious. Also on the bottom right, the names of the online friends are now cut off the screen.

Hopefully this can be fixed. I find also the clock a bit too big but the size of the board is okay to play for me. I have more negative comments to make than positive since I found the previous version almost perfect. But I believe the new board is not bad from the first games I have played. I have seen it is resizable so it should be okay.

What I do not like is that it seems that everyone will have to customize their own pages, profiles, preferences or browsers to make the new lichess work decently.

Black pawns (and may be other pieces) on dark squares are seems bad for me for any variants lichess boards and pieces.
May I create my own color board and form/color pieces, which are more contrasted? I wish:
1. white edge for all dark pieces, especially pawns. +some white lines inside dark pieces.
2.create not black-color pieces (blue, red).
3. white (as light) and yellow (as dark) squares on board.

Hello,

I would like to reask as I did not get any answer. Is there no easy way to customize the colors or text police or its brightness?

@Demonolith Yes, you can code your own CSS style to change that, but no, there is no such preference in lichess itself.

Thank you @Solal35 but I do not know how to proceed. Do you mean I need to write a big code or can I open some page on Mozilla where some CSS code is already filled and just swtich some values just for lichess? I have never used CSS.

I use Firefox, so can speak on that. Install an add-on called "stylus", then go to this site (userstyles.org/styles/browse/lichess)
to install various styles for boards, pieces, coloured text etc. You can then edit the CSS code and change the colours to your hearts content or keep them as is.

Keep in mind that this is not part of Lichess, so if you cant get something to work, you are on your own, ie, don't come to the Lichess team looking for a fix.

Thank you very much @ubique29 . Before I use it then, assuming I do stupid changes, is it simple to go back to the initial configuration?

@Demonolith Just delete the CSS style I think. I don’t know much about CSS, but if you’re stuck I would be happy to **try** to help you ;)

@Demonolith
you will see a little green box with a little white letter S on the top right of your address bar. Click on that and it shows what styles you have installed, just click them on and off.

Thanks to both of you. I will come back for help then if I am in trouble!
