PlainStyles by TickleTheory

Another dark (but not too dark) alternative to my lighter floral themes. I've gone back to using Plain Tabula Rasa as a base theme because it's still the lightest among all that I've tried. This is also the most lightweight among the 4 floral themes.

Huhuhu. Can't wait for the meta viewport tag fix in the future.

I liked the brittle base style after doing the Editor theme because it was quite light compared to some others. I've always wanted to do a blue version of Spring is Pink especially for those looking for a light theme.

This is my most polished mobile layout to date.

Tried something different and I had a lot of fun with this. Available in 2-column (left, right) and 1-column formats only.

I'm trying to work out an issue with Dreamwidth stripping the viewport meta tag when a theme is NOT using the layout's default stylesheet. I do this to avoid repeating CSS, keeping it a bit more lightweight, even if it means 9k bytes less to load.

I've posted this question on style_system. If there's no resolution for this, uh, I'll have to re-evaluate my approach. Duplicated css but responsive > lighter, no duplication css but not mobile responsive? Argh. So frustrating.

Whatever the outcome, I'll have to eventually go back to the themes I've posted here because they are already responsive. The absence of the meta tag just keeps it from triggering. :
