I finally released my first userstyle and it revamps the entire color scheme for ComicVine using the Stylish plugin for Firefox and Chrome. If you are interested in giving it a test run you can install it from the userstyle.org website.
 
If you have any feedback or find any problems with it let me know :)

(This userstyle can be installed in Chrome without the Stylish plugin but I would not recommend it since it is much slower and will load the original site first and then the new colors after which creates a gross site flicker.)

@Icarusflies:  lol, basically Stylish is a plugin/extension for Chrome and Firefox that lets you change what a website looks like, you can change colors and where things are on a page and even what gets displayed. ComicVine Remix is a script that can be added to Stylish and basically it changes the color scheme all over ComicVine with a large emphasis on blue so pretty much anything on ComicVine that is green changes to blue, link colors are changed, wiki editing colors are all different, buttons are different and in general I find it more visually pleasing then the default ComicVine color scheme.
 
A good way to look at it is that ComicVine Remix is a skin or theme that sits on top of ComicVine to make it look different :)

If you know CSS then ya you can play around with it otherwise it doesn't have a way. Almost every web site has a CSS file that holds all the visual style code for a web site and Stylish just adds extra CSS that is user made so it doesn't have an interactive way to change things.
 
If you are using Chrome there is a plugin called Stylebot that lets you create your own styles for a site and it is visual but you still have to know a little about CSS, if you try it out watch the little video, it gives a good little tutorial on using it.

I know nothing  about anything tech-related for the most part. I may try my hand at it. I have the next six days off, so I'm bound to get bored out of my skull sooner or later.

It's a "wow, different colour" kind of whoa. It's not really good or bad just surprised. But more good than bad. Blue is rather refreshing.

@Spine_:  ya I'm a little obsessed with blue, I use it in everything I make. On CV it just feels more relaxing and peaceful compared to the semi harsh dark green and I'm not a fan of yellow being used on websites usually.

I could probably make a purple one next month, we talking lighter purples or darker ones? I can see myself making and user a purple one but not if it is like darker harsh purples.

Was thinking something like this (but obviously it's up to you, you're the one doing it)
