Headers are darker because I did originally have them lighter and it made chains of comments hard to sort through. After I made them darker, it made the post headers look weird because they were lighter, so I changed the post headers. When I changed the post headers, it made the header at the top of the page look weird because it was lighter, so I changed that too.

The sidebar text is darker than the current style. At first I made it black, and that made it look odd, so I went for a grey. I thought it was too light as well, but I used the site for a couple of hours and became accustomed to it. What do you mean by preview text? The text that shows up in comment boxes before you start typing?

Thought about doing a :visited:hover color?

I did actually think about a visited:hover colour. I was going to use the colour of the 4chan logo (#880000) but decided against it because it looked over-complicated.

As for your vote color issue, it looks like their color is being inherited from body

You're right, I see it now but I'm not entirely sure how to fix that. There are some other things like that too, the small buttons underneath posts and some on the sidebar are actually taking their colour from the piece of css that changes the sidebar text.

In the textarea boxes, it's very light. I kinda like it though... grows on you, haha.

Apply styling to them specifically .comment div > i | .comment .upvoted > i or something similar.

Hmm, I still can't figure it out. Maybe I'll give my shitcode to Polsaker and see if he can salvage it.
