i like the gay space communism theme instead of this newspaper bullshit people seem to want

Same. Newspaper theme is real lame. Cspam should be gaudy, colorful, and makes you feel like you're on an acid trip while browsing. That's the only way to summarize both american politics and cspam circa 5 AE (After escalator)

I like the guillotines, they should linger on the banned image a bit longer, like maybe 2-4 seconds or so

It’s hacky, but here you go.

code:
.forum_269 .postbody a.quote_link:before {
 content:"Sources close to ";
  color: black
}
.forum_269 .postbody a.quote_link:after {
  content:", speaking on the condition of anonymity stated:";
  position: relative;
  right: 3.5em;
  color:black;
  background-color: #FAFAFA;
}
The blue “posted” is still there. It’s just hidden under text with an opaque background the same colour as the underlying page.

The positioning could be wrong with different fonts or renderers, and notably it doesn’t switch to yellow when the quote is of your own post.



There may well be a better way to do it.

Oooh yeah that's the stuff.

How does the .forum_269 stuff work? does everything in this forum have a class applied to it?

I've been writing a stylesheet assuming it'll get loaded after forum.css

Whatever. However it's applied, it seems to work as expected.



Not super happy with it yet, but it's a good starting point

Not that I am going to do anything to help out, but I think the idea of a new york times stylesheet is boring and sucks rear end. It should look crazy and use :has pseudoclasses to make posts containing BERNIE fly around the screen and. Avatars should be saying the posts. Mods posts should be turned into 1px text in a collapsed box that you have to click a button to display. All of the branding and styling should be directly copied from AboveTopSecret
