Thank you for sharing! I will try it when i am on desktop.
I actually used your code as base to start to fix some things that bug me the most.. all spacing/positioning the colors are a total mess. So i am interested to see what yours is like. I can tell from looking that yours is more efficient because i do not know what im doing so it is trial and error.
Do you think there is a better place than wherever we are to post? A repo or other code sharing? I think the stylus extension connects to some sort of website but i never investigated it.
Hey so I setup a repo; swap to the default green litely theme, and then test a few of these out, I think they turned out quite well!

Please feel free to submit pull requests if you have other colors or ideas you think would look nice. The more the merrier!
I have had hardly any time at the desktop this week! I tried your code and I like it because it generally looks good. I like mine because it uses the full use of space and has strong delineations. I'd like to combine them when I can. Dial down the hideous by about 50%.
Here is my code https://gist.github.com/btyaa/36a1743e7a0ae95b5aa8178722650b9e
I hope I am not disparaging you by giving you credit. I can remove it if you want. I do not feel this deserves to be in a repo at the moment. It is hideous at the front and the back.
The Stylus extension exported it with this
@-moz-documentand tbh I do not exactly know what that is; it isn't how it shows up when I edit it. I didnt look into it.Also I apologize for my various bad css habits such as preceding lines with
xor other letters to comment them out instead of using comments. And I use border, outlines, backgrounds to help me locate things. Forgive me I learned CSS before web developer tools, before firebug, and only had intermittent practice since that time. I always fallback to my old ways. Only roughly grok CSS3. Usually I hide these but sometimes i miss. If I would properly share, I'd run a script to remove all the junk.But if it works easily in your userstyle extension you should try it out. It might hurt your eyes. I make effort to describe what I am doing in comments, because otherwise I get even more lost, but the way it exported isn't great.
Oh also it hides some stuff I am not interested in. So, uh, careful.
I was thinking of creating a Github repo for it, maybe make a few different theme variants as well for people that'd want different than the standard two colors etc. Might take a crack at it, will let you know.
