I recall that this was requested over on PW when I put the poll up. So, I've played around with our default theme and reskinned it into a night time version for those of you who prefer the darker backgrounds. I know we have Pycode, but I'm not as keen on that one and it is styled slightly differently to our main theme.
It's available on your control panel as Clean-Night.
If any of you use it and notice any issues with the colours then do let me know. It's possible that I missed recolouring the odd bit here and there.

Very nice Mantis. I'll use it for a while.
Only one thing I've noticed; with spoiler boxes, the 'show' text is the same as the background and needs to be darker.

I really like the existing dark theme myself. I hope someone uses this one since it was me that brought up a dark theme in the first place, I’d hate your hard work to go unneeded!

Actually, I'll probably just use this theme all the time now. I don't really think of it as a 'night' theme, lots of people use dark themes all day. They're just a bit nicer to look at I think.

I prefer a lighter theme myself; easier on the eyes!
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

I think darks way easier on the eyes. I’m pure goth.

Fixed it. Clear your cache if it hasn't changed.
