@phenomlab Awesome!! Love it…
@Sampo2910 thanks. I’m going to be cleaning up the code and proving a new post with instructions etc soon. Fully stable now with (I hope) no bugs, so ready for release once I’ve finished the cleanup.

*** NEW *** Greybird theme added
For those who like the Ubuntu theme of the same name, this is for you. Not entirely a replica, but pretty close
-
*** NEW *** Tempest theme added
A nice blend of dark colors. Easy on the eyes, and perfect for those who like a bit of darkness in their lives
Some minor tweaks have been added to better support mobile views, and also layouts on desktops with larger screens. Most of these will probably go unnoticed, but I’ve spotted them

I’m planning on making the theme CSS a bit more flexible in terms of individual assets as one variable currently will change multiple assets - not great from the overall control perspective, so need to address that.
This issue doesn’t manifest itself under dark themes, but is very much visible under light - particular when you want to use a dark header with light text - currently, it’s not visible. I could be selfish and say that light themes are no longer supported… (just kidding)

*** NEW *** Twitter (Dim) theme added
For those who like the Twitteresque dim theme.

*** NEW *** Anthracite theme added
For those who like a bit of darkness in their lives, but not too much of it

I thought I’d better come by here with an update so everyone knows that the Swatch project isn’t abandoned, or has simply “gone cold”. In fact, quite the opposite.
I’ve setup a dev instance on my home network which I’m currently developing against. I’ll put some screenshots up soon, but the Swatch code is currently enjoying a rewrite. The great news is that you’ll get ten times the flexibility you have now meaning greater support for light themes, although the downside is that there isn’t that much backwards compatibility meaning some of my own themes even need to be completely redesigned.
However, this isn’t the end of the world. Once you’re familiar with the classes, it really doesn’t take long at all to create your own themes.
More to follow.

I’ll be putting together a video of what the revamped theme will look like very soon - just got some small issues to iron out, and code cleanup beforehand…
