OK, think I got it licked for the Hero Skin. Re-cut-and-paste from here.

Code:
/* Changes the wysiwyg editor so it doesn't pick up the page color background*/
.wysiwyg {
background: #244a79 !important;
color: #ffffff !important;
Speaking of which...how do I fix that "code" block?

Edit: Added Devian's font line, so that it changes the background color and makes it look like nice code.

I've wrestled with the wysiwyg editor and it's onery. I was able to change the background to the color scheme of the skin, but then when the editor is refreshed (such as with a preview) it reverts back to it's old ways and doesn't stay skinned.|

Then there's the problem that you type in a color-less font which happens to show up as black in the editor.
I gave up trying to skin the editor so that it really functions wysiwyg with the font color and background color that sticks.

Code:
/* Formats the code box */
pre.alt2 {
background: #3F1313 none repeat scroll 0 0 !important;
font-family: Lucida Console, Courier New, Courier, monospace !important;
width: 100% !important;
}
Added width to the code box so it uses up all the post width available.
Adding it to the skins now...

I just love your villain skin. This thread and the Greasemonkey ones are the first ones I check for new posts every board visit!

I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but, lately I've noticed this skin is causing the forums to respond ridiculously slow and sometimes only half loading pages.
I've run with this skin turned off and the forums respond lickety split without any errors.
Anyone else having this issue?
Update: And of course the forums make a liar out of me yet again 
Doesn't look like it's an issue with this skin. Sorry Zombie. Keep up the good work!
We'll see....

Skinning does slow the boards down a bit. It helped me to switch from showing 100 posts per page to 50 posts per page.

I love this skin. So much better.
Is it possible, in any way (please please please please say yes) to display all the forums within the categories on the front page of the forums, like in the old ones, WITHOUT having to click once to open up the category. I liked being able to just log into the forums and click directly on the Virtue forum, or the Comic & Hero/Villain Culture forum. Now, I have to click to open up For Fun! first, THEN click Comic & Hero/Villain Culture, then if I want to leave and go read the Virtue forum, I have to click the Back button twice, or the City of Heroes Forums link directly, then open the NEW section of forums... it's a ton of extra clicks that's very annoying.

This has saved my eyes, the new forums was such a pain to read through. Your variant is such a relief....this is absolutely BRILLIANT!

I love Chrome so much, but without Stylish support I really can't stand these forums.
The graphic arrow 'jump to last post' is mysteriously no longer available at the tinypic.com address. So, I took the 'jump to quoted post' arrow, turn it on its side and saved it to photobucket.
I updated the Hero and Villain skin links above so that if you re-paste the entire code of the link over the entire code of the stylish sheet, it will update.
Or, if you want a more surgical approach, go into the Stylish code and look for the section on graphic images and change the tinypic url (and not the buttons/lastpost.png url) to the photobucket url:
Code:
Changes the "go to last post" arrow by the name in the "Last Post" column http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f346/zombie_guy/Last.png

Stylish doesn't support my latest Firefox update. I miss my skin. I am a sad skinless panda.
I'm considering rolling back the update to Firefox for just this reason.

I don't know about 4, I skipped it, but Stylish is working fine with FF5 on my system. I am guessing he upgraded to FF6, since mine has been telling me I should for the last few days.

I have two FF installations: I now use a portable version of FF3 so that I can continue to use the FFvB plug-in that filters out selected threads. Then I use the other FF to the most recent update for my other surfing needs.

They did hit 5 in there. But apparently the Mozilla folks decided they needed to get their version numbers up with Microsoft or something.
