Not a fan of the dark theme (too grey for my taste), otherwise looks pretty good. However, this not up to me. ping @Chocobo1 @sledgehammer999.

Thanks, by too grey did you mean that its too light or the wrong color? (not blueish)

Both, I guess?
@FranciscoPombal what do you think?
alternate color scheme 1 ff style
2 windows style (text color is off , but generally you get the idea)
3 chrome style

Unfortunately I'm not a fan of any of them, but out of all of them, the first is my favorite. Again, you don't have to please me, since I currently have not say on what goes on the website, better wait for more feedback before doing more iterations on the design.

Alright :) I am curious though , mind linking a website you like the dark scheme of?
GitHub itself is nice; darker than your original proposal and without a "tint", but not as dark as some of the follow-up ones. The one from stackoverflow is also nice. I now realize that part of my dislike for the original one also probably comes from the fact that it uses 2 tones that contrast too much between background and foreground (and I don't mean the font), if that makes sense.
I also like some quite dark and high-contrast dark themes (think "black" themes on AMOLED smartphones) but they have to be very well executed in order to not become the classic Windows high-contrast theme.
In my coding environment I am partial to solarized dark. On my XFCE desktop, I use Adwaita-dark.

I get what you mean, thanks for explaining 👍 I'll wait for some more feedback to see what others think so I can find something that suits everyone.
@Chocobo1 @sledgehammer999 could I get your feedback please?
could you please use the new windows icon? x

Sure, I will make it when I have the time.
The banner looks a bit off centre because the little dragon in the egg isn't there. Could you move the qBittorrent logos to the right a bit?

@Poopooracoocoo Looks good the way it is to me but I'll try and post the result here when I have the time.
