Setting background to black no longer saving (FIXED)

I'm having the bug too, in chrome both in windows 8.1 and my android phone

It dun broke for me too

Windows 10, Chrome, Firefox etc.

A little odd that this has been happening since yesterday morning and there hasn't even been a response on this thread yet.

Yep this is broken for me too.

Windows 7, Chome desktop and Chrome Mobile.

No responses?

@rorie Is anyone looking into this?

Make it stop!! : )

Same here.......this just looks weired.

I went through four pages to see if there was a solution yet. I was blinded each time.

I'm dying inside. Please make it stop, O ye Giant Bomb website design gods! END OUR SUFFERING!

It's spreading.

@szlifier: NOOO! Not the QLCrew too! T_T ^_-

Reporting in. Pleaseeeee fix this soon. My eyes will thank you.

Any of you that actually use the white setting ... go stand in the corner and think about your life decisions.

I guess I'll include helpful information: Windows 10, Chrome Version 50.0.2661.102 m

This whiteness is blinding! Dark theme for everything!

WHAT THE FUCK.

good someone else reported it.

Happening for me as well, on both Windows 10 / Chrome 50.0.2661.102, and Windows 7 / Firefox (not sure of the version off the top of my head).

It feels like I've entered some sort of negazone. Nega-Giant Bomb, where everything's reversed and terrifying.

Waaaaaah. Why god why?!?!

Same here.

+1

Win 10 64, Chrome.

Has an engineer responded to this thread yet? THIS IS A NIGHTMARE!

Good Lord, this is really uncomfortable.
Win 10 x64 + Firefox

RIP eyeballs

Oh god the site's close to unusable with white. What's happening.

@cornbredx: yep

I've had to deal with this bug since Monday I believe... Latest Firefox, and Win10(x64)

This site's white form seems so much more blinding than other sites.

why did they ever make the default white? its horrible.

This is eye poison.

Literally unplayable. 0/5 stars

Was working fine on my laptop yesterday. When I switched to my desktop the problem occurred. Now I'm back on my laptop and it's still happening.

My monitor just spoke to me and said "fuck off with this blinding white garbage". Also nooooooooooooooo!

I'm growing more and more concerned that none of the staff/engineers have showed their faces in here yet :o

Send help! And bring lots of black bg!

Windows 7. Chrome 50.0

This white theme is unbearable...

I came here to post this as well.

Windows 7, x64, Chrome

There's only one explanation. The white theme killed them all and is working on taking over.

THE WHITE THEME IS SKYNET.

#stopwhitesite2k16

I'm not making this up. The site being this bright is really giving me a migraine.

So uhh, guys?

(Threads like these usually don't go this long without any kind of acknowledgement from staff.)

Same. I almost forgot there was even a white site, it seems so silly.

OSX el capitan

Chrome

@edgework@wcarle@rorie Hate to ping you, but some acknowledgment of this would be reassuring.

@sgtsphynx: Sorry we're in E3 mode right now and anything not a major bug or directly related to E3 is put on the later list. I'll make sure this on that list.

Listen, over the years I've pent-up my mild disappointment over your poor search functionality, wiki, video player, and your horrible mobile version of the site, but please dont take the darkness away from me.

Eh, just get rid of the white background. The 6 people who like it will live.

Why is the white site even available? OH GOD MY EYES SAVE MEEEE, SAAAAVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

@edgework: Understandable, just wanted to make sure this was at least on your radar.

Workaround fix.

• Install a custom css extension such as https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-css/okpjlejfhacmgjkmknjhadmkdbcldfcb
• Add the follwing to the css: @import "http://static.giantbomb.com/bundles/giantbombsite/css/giantbomb_black-f19e967d4bb1731d3fc944c6203d0112.css";

My solution:

• EditThisCookie
• Set the skinSource cookie to giantbomb_black+migrated and save it with the bottom green button
• Open this cookie again and click on the lock icon

Buckle up, cause this might not be fixed until after E3.

Same is happening here. Win 7 with Chrome. Please help, it's hideous.

So, do we have any sort of timetable as to when this might get looked at?

...gurgle...

@edgework: ummm.. no offense but E3 is in 4 weeks from now and this doesn't look like it would be too hard to fix.. so consider giving it priority because it's literally unusable like this...

@excast: June 20th ish

Thank you!!
