And I don't even know what to upload, i.e. the whole "Skin" folder, because that's where the skin_base.less folder is stored?

And it's @drakinite who solved my riddle. And now i realized @drakinite uploaded Black Monkey... So all the fame, and work for uploading "Black Monkey - Old School Terminal Look" should go to him.

If you take a look at skin_base.less (in MediaMonkey 5/skin), you'll find the following:

Code: Select all

@textColor: contrast(@baseColor, black, white);

If you override @textColor, you can override the base text color for all elements.

Here's what I got by overriding just @textColor, @warningColor, and @windowBorderColor:

Code: Select all

@textColor: rgb(61, 226, 61);
@baseColor: #000000;
@warningColor: #bdffb7;
@controlColor: #101010;
@hoverColor: @warningColor;
@hoverBgColor: darken( @warningColor, 52%);
@borderColor: @warningColor;
@selectedColor: lighten(@baseColor, 20%);
@disabledSelectedColor: mix(@baseColor, @selectedColor, 50%);
@highlightBgColor: @highlightColor;
//@shadowColor: @hoverBgColor;

@windowBorderColor: #4fac47;

@font-face { font-family: Roboto; src: url("/skin/fonts/Roboto-Regular.ttf"); }

body {
    font-family: Roboto, sans-serif;
}

BTW: If you haven't installed the refreshSkinShortcut addon (either by copying the refreshSkinShortcut folder from SampleScripts to Scripts, or installing from here, I'd highly recommend doing so. You just have to click the button once to refresh your skin's LESS/CSS.

If you are fine with a good enough approach, append the listview class in skin_listview_add.less with a color property, that should get you most of the way in the main window since almost everything there inherits from listview.
