Solved Creating a BBcode toolbar for dark-themed templates

is there another bbcode icon bar more suited to dark templates?
or perhaps a way to style the entire tr? I can see how to style just the icon background but it really should see the entire bar not just the icons themselves if it makes any sense.
I really hope cyprsis supports dark templates well.

Try this one. It looks fine on a dark template.

where would I put that?

nvm, i c where
doesn't solve the problem though

I realise that this is an ancient subject and there hasn't been any movement on it in ages.

Recently, when I was building a website that uses a Kunena forum, I wanted to experiment with the use of font-based glyphs instead of the images you see in the BBcode toolbar on this site.



As we know, the standard Kunena BBcode toolbar does a bit of fancy CSS fiddling with the image ../components/com_kunena/template/blue_eagle/media/iconsets/editor/default/default.png. If people use a dark-themed template, the "images" may not render as "nicely" as people would like to see them. Also, when a person uses browser zooming, these images become less clear when they're enlarged.

Instead of using image-based glyphs, I experimented with a couple of different fonts - there are a lot of them around (e.g. Glyphicons Halflings, FontAwesome, IcoMoon) - to produce a toolbar like this:



There are three benefits in using font-based gylphs:

(1) the clarity remains consistent if you zoom in or out;
(2) you can customise each tool quite easily (font-size, colour, background, etc.) instead of having to redesign a whole new set of images; and
(3) you do not have to change the Kunena source-code.

The downside is that you can only use a single colour but, if you look at a lot of professionally developed software today - particularly those products developed by Apple (e.g Safari, iTunes) - there's a trend in using monochromatic, font-based glyphs.

tell me more about this.. what changes are necessary. Other then being monochromatic i really like it.
