Who is inspired to make an LCARS theme for this sub??
One of the wonderful things about lemmy/free and open source software like this is that nobody would be forced to use an LCARS theme, under settings a user can change what theme they want lemmy to display in. So… really we can go all out here!
I provided a link to some lemmy themes to give people an idea of the possibilities.
(I am not an admin or anything here, of course the people running startrek.website would need to agree to install the theme on the server side but I figured I would throw the idea out there!)
Given that one of the reasons for migrating here was Reddit’s disregard of an disrespect towards persons with disabilities, perhaps it would be important to offer some (more than one) Star Trek custom theme that meets the needs of people with different accessibility issues.
While I know many Berman-era fans love LCARS, and it was innovative for its time, it’s really not at all accessibility informed.
Not to mention, that options for the board should be welcoming of fans of all eras, not just the 90s.
I like this idea. And the fact that it is optional is a big plus. I know a fellow has already made a nice CSS LCARS theme at https://www.thelcars.com. I think as long as this website stays a community thing and doesn’t turn into a for-profit thing then we should be fine according to the license. I don’t know how much work it would require to do implement.
Those themes are gorgeous. I mean who knows, I think there is a good chance that person would be excited about having a form of their lcars theme used for startrek.website!
