Title: Sugardust's Dye Emporium - Color Themes
Post by: Sugardust on October 17, 2020, 10:47:16 pm
Sugardust's Dye Emporium
Your stop for all things unique color-themes
Howdy all. I have returned once again bearing new color themes. Some may recall a few months ago I posted a light-theme DF color theme called Cartography on here and a few people seemed to like it. I am glad and have created an assortment of additional themes I wish to throw out here and have people do what they wish with them. They are all pretty unique in my opinion, so I hope you all enjoy.

I will update this post over time if I create any new themes, so feel free to come back to the Emporium at any time. I've also become a contributor to the Dwarf Fortress Color Generator website made by Manmademagic --> https://manmademagic.github.io/DFColorGen/, and my Cartography theme is already up on there. If you have never used this site, it's a must-use for color theme enthusiasts such as myself. I will be hopefully contributing these and many more themes to that site for easy-viewing, but for now, enjoy the below themes and I would love to know you opinion on any. Thanks guys.

The tileset used in most of the screenshots is Koumakan's English version of their Elian Script tileset, found here --> http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=169671.0

GRUVBOX
Based on the ever-popular text-editor theme. One of my personal favorites.

Gleaming Emeralds
As the stone crumbles, an emerald shines. Lots of green.

Rose Pine
Scents of pinecones and needle-fir trees fill the air.
Based on a VSCode theme I really enjoy --> https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=mvllow.rose-pine

Forgotten Beats
The Forgotten Beat Flouoromachine has come! It menaces with rays of digital sunset and it's skin is a groovy shade of purple. Beware!

New scheme today I'm really enjoying and think it's worthy of uploading here.
A focus on dull shades of blue and green, but red pops out a lot and catches your eye.

thanks. these are very nice, though honestly at this point I have so much trouble choosing between all the wonderful options I tend to just settle on whatever is most legible.

the newest, Rain, is lovely for hermit playthroughs. it just feels like foggy solitude!
