I've always been meaning to do this for sometime now, so here it is: a complete throwback of the '04 days! Take a glimpse to what NG used to look like back then with this Stylus theme!
Known bugs:
- Weird artifacts might appear in your userpage and notifications
- Might not actually boost load speeds
- BBS splitter blends a bit too well with the background
- Submission ratings are too small and barely noticable (at present there's no known fix without breaking parts of the site)
Features:
- The classic NG look and colors
- Functional forum icons (one of them even animates, just like old times!)
- Lightweight, so it'll play nice with mobile (It'll actually boost site load speeds!)
- Appiles to everything except userpages, the portal (and instances where the site will use the '15 theme)
- The original splitter from the old layouts
- Background and assets is optimized to work with the current 2018-19 theme
- Does not remove ads (why would you do that? you could already remove ads)

How do i install this on mobile?

I'm still trying to figure a method for that..
For now, this change is only for computers for now. It's possible you can run this up from scripts but I still need to look that up.
