SteamGifts v2 Dark Userstyle


Bright/light sites can be hard on the eyes so for us ocular challenged people i created a darker version. Works on www.steamgifts.com, www.steamtrades.com, www.sgtools.info . Compatible with most scripts found in the addon registry..

Also check out my other style SG Dark Grey.

Note: Style is now hosted on github as userstyles.org is no longer supported.


Install Stylus for either Firefox, Chrome or Opera and then install the style using one of these methods:

📦 Install the usercss which supports automatic updates and customization.
📦 Install manually from GitHub with no customization. The style is in Mozilla format.
📦 Install script which supports automatic updates but no customization.
📦 Install script from greasyfork which supports automatic updates and customization has settings menu via slide tab top right corner.


Last updated January 12 2024 version 1.7.6

Thank you so much! dark theme what a welcoming gift for my eyes! :)

I am going to put some hot keys in the next update.

  • Alt+1 = switch to default Steamgifts theme
  • Alt+2 = switch to default Dark theme
  • Alt+3 = bring up settings menu

or something along those line, not necessarily those keys

That's a good idea! But you should probably mention this stuff in the original post, along with the "hidden" menu button. People wouldn't expect keyboard shortcuts, I think. Also, Alt+number collides with direct tab selection, at least here in my Firefox.

Yes definitely will have to make it more obvious in OP than currently. Here is what i have in at the moment.

  • Shift+Alt+1 = switch to theme #1
  • Shift+Alt+2 = switch to theme #2
  • Shift+Alt+3 = switch to theme #3
  • Shift+Alt+S = bring up settings menu
  • Shift+Alt+D = switch to default Steamgifts theme
  • Shift+Alt+C = switch to current theme

Could you separate the Giveaway and Forum endless scrolling?

I'm pretty sure it was originally like that, but now the forums are also scrolling and I'd prefer to only have it for giveaways.

The text is drastically different. Let me show you the difference when I click "Dark/Light" in the top right.

See the difference now? It only started after I updated moments ago from 1.2.9 to 1.3.2

It is a smaller font size for resolutions below 1280px

Comment has been collapsed.

When window width is <1280px? Yeah the window width is probably 1150-1200px. Then why doesn't it affect the Light style, and why didn't it happen when I was using 1.2.9? Is there a way to override it via CSS in the Themes Settings?

Comment has been collapsed.

yes window width sorry not screen resolution, and that change is part of the dark theme not steamgifts. It went live in version 1.3.0 and there are not settings for it at the moment, need to manually change.

@media screen and (max-width: 1280px) {
    .giveaway__heading__name:not(.tile_view_header) {
    font-size: 16px !important;
    }
}

16px is default size, 13px is what it is now

Thanks greatly for the helpful debugging that it was in SGv2 Dark and the class name as well so I can manually change it.

As well I see you made an update with a relative size increase per window width. ;D

If only everyone was as nice. Take care MashedTuber.

Biggest issue I have is lines 2349, 2357 and 2360 (in current 1.3.4). I just change 2349 & 2357 to 12px and 2360 to 11px otherwise the site is barely usable for me with the 1.3+ default settings.

As always though, thanks for the style but I wish I didn't have to do this every time. xD

Thanks for creating SGv2 Dark.

My site looks the same as the screenshot that Dakyio posted. How can I get it to look like the screenshots posted in the OP? I've only been using the Style not the Userscript.

Thanks again!

EDIT:
Switching to the Userscript corrected things.
(Also had to disable the Stylish script.)

Mmh I'm really puzzled about how to get the Dark Style back.. Now I got some Dark Green Text Boxes and Yellow Text that doesn't look too good and I can't figure out how to change it. Could you please point me in the right direction.. I'm using Firefox with GreaseMonkey and I previously had the Style installed but now I did put the Userscript but it's not getting back to the basic Dark style I liked. This Green and yellow is kinda making me sick :\

After using the script version for a bit I noticed that the whole page goes white while I refresh it, instead of holding what was in the screen and then switching to the new one.
I don't know if I'm explaining myself right. The problem only happens when I F5.
Is this normal?

That's too bad. I just uninstalled Stylish because of the recent thread and now there is a much more noticeable flash of white before the page loads. I am using Tampermonkey now since I already had it installed for something else.

I am using Chrome for SG, but I remember in Firefox there were different settings in about:config to control when a webpage starts displaying (initial paint delay) and how often it displays new information while it is loading (reflow). I wonder if Chrome has those options and if changing them to wait longer before displaying the page would decrease the white flash. This would of course slow down the initial display of other pages as well, but it may not be bad.

Edit: I changed Tampermonkey's inject mode to instant and it removed most of the white flash. Hopefully it won't cause any problems.

This is why the stylish recommendation was replaced with Stylus , but if you chose to use tampermonkey the instant inject mode is your best option.

Can anyone help? After the update the colors which were a border around certain giveaways were set to default. The problem is that i don't remember the exact numbers of colors which i was using before. My question is, is there a version or some way to retrieve the previous colors? I'm asking because some of the colors are so bright that in the dark scheme it makes it very irritating to the eye.
