Hey, all. I'm still alive! Been poking around the FF7 Remake pages hoping to finally play the thing (ah, life), and, to get to the point, white icons don't show up very well on white backgrounds. I could probably do something to change to Dark Mode, but that's just a personal bandaid for me, not the 99% of viewers who don't log in to look up info and are now seeing baffling spaces all over the place.
There are a couple options: 1) we do something tasteful to darken the pages, or 2) we find a way to maybe throw an outline on all the images. Darkening the pages probably is going to be easier and people might be appreciative of having something a bit easier on the eyes than "the blinding light of the sun" for a gaming wiki.

- If the background is too light and should be a little darker than #FFF, that's worth discussing, but it won't help here: Making the background dark enough to make the icon on Blade Burst (VII Remake) visible would require that the background be too dark for a dark font. It should not be hard, however, to update Module:Icon to allow for shadowed icons. I'll take care of this after work today or this weekend. Cat (meow ∙ hunt) 13:31, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
I love a light theme! It's not any brighter than like BBC news or whatever normal sites people visit. Only thing I would change is that the image up top seems like cold colour tone, whereas the tables' background etc is warm colour tone, so it clashes a bit.
