Custom CSS for the new vB board - say no to the gradients!
Question: if just trying to remove the gradients (I realize the style also changes the font), wouldn't adblocking http://boards.cityofheroes.com/styles/CoH/gradients/* work as well?

I honestly didn't think of that. If that is all you want, it should work just fine.
Stylesheets offers a bit more control over the appearances, however. For example, I really like the black table borders and the grey outline that surrounds the main table.
The main thing this stylesheet does is to remove the majority of the background gradient images and to set the main font to Verdana instead of Arial.


It does not modify the original's background colors, and is thus compatible with both the Hero and Villain themes.
You can find it in my sig or by following this link to userstyles.org: http://userstyles.org/styles/7640
There you can either see the code in its entirety and install it with a single click, provided you are using FF w/ Stylish or Greasemonkey, or Opera.
With the board's Hero theme:
With the Villain theme instead:
Feedbacks are not just welcome, but desired!
I will be watching this thread and make improvements to the CSS.
