 I think it would be a great idea to have some kind of repository where fossil
 users could share things like color schemes (or possibly extensions some day).
 Something along the lines of gnome-look.org. 

Wouldn't it be sufficient to run one Fossil instance for this purpose?
Like in eat your own dogfood?


 Rolf: The theme reminds me of one of the builtin gvim themes (desert?).

I butchered the Khaki, No Logo. skin that comes with Fossil.


 Visually, I like high contrast between background and text -- yellow, white,
 or green on black, white on blue, etci -- so the peach on grey is a little too
 subtle for my eyes to be comfortable with. But, I know some people who like
 that subtlety.

From the zenburn readme:
Zenburn is a low-contrast color scheme for Vim. It’s easy for your eyes and
designed to keep you in the zone for long programming sessions.

Of course keep you in the zone does not make a lot of sense for a website. I 
simply like the colorset.
If we had the skins/themes in a public repository, anyone could fork and 
contribute a high contrast version.


 Thanks for sharing.

Thank you all for providing Fossil in the first place!

LOL! A skin-demo site could work if the anonymous user had the rights to
change the skin. i don't think that will work right now without giving
anonymous access to far more stuff (e.g. the css and header editors).
Perhaps we could add a new permission which gives a user access to the
skin-selection page. Doh, but then we have the problem that the skin is
global. We'd need per-login session data to support that (a feature we've
talked about a couple times but have no compelling need for).

If you need a place to host such a repo, i can get one set up for you.

Was that an intentional reference to the dogfood? ;)

Was that the German translation of Batman's catchphrase in Batman Begins?
What do we do when we fall down? We get back up.
