In a word - no. Sorry. I too would love to see a dark skin but I don't think that is in the works.

Opera's Direction Has Finally Lost Another UserLounge
What is the point of this post? I suppose it's simply here to allow me to vent one last time after which I will permanently leave the forum. I've been a long-time Opera user going back to 1999 and actually paying for it. When Opera sent Von Tetzchner packing and deep-sixed Presto, it came as a shock - particularly the loss of the excellent "My Opera" offering they so freely gave to us (thank you, Opera, for those many wonderful years). But I stuck with Opera through the difficult early Blink years up until the disastrous announcement of the sale to a Chinese consortium.
Now some of you will accuse me at this juncture of putting on my tinfoil hat with what I'm about to reveal but so be it. I will not trust a browser or any antivirus offering from China, Russia or Romania. Call it what you will but that is my prerogative. It would be so easy for China to hide code into the new Opera browser (see Steve Gibson's latest revelations for substance to that claim) that I cannot take that chance. You can counter with the revelations of Snowden on the NSA and I would have to agree but being from the West I'll take my chances with the US rather than China.
So, with that I'm removing Opera permanently from my computer and saying a final good-bye to this forum and to all things Opera. Thank you, John, for the many wonderful years with Opera and for the free gift of My Opera. Those were wonderful, heady years that will not be forgotten. Time now to move on. Good-bye.

RE: Opera SoldLounge
unsupported OS like XP is foolishness plain and simple.
Vista is still supported (even if only has less than a year left).
If MS hasn't dropped it yet, no one else should.Companies can do whatever they please. You're not paying for the browser but using it as a free offering from Opera. Either update your OS or find another browser. But you're going to discover that your dated OS will be an increasing disadvantage to you going forward.

"an affair to remember"
"canadagoose ... People are expressing their opinions as they see fit.
It's not up to you to determine which comments are "silly" or foolish.
If someone is using XP and it fulfills their needs, that's their choice, not yours"
I beg license to use these words as if were mine. What about go to page 1 and take a new view ?Nor is it up to you to tell me what I can and cannot post. I also am expressing "my" opinion and I stand by it. Unless it is a financial restriction, remaining with an old, unsupported OS like XP is foolishness plain and simple. Someone using such an outdated, insecure system is a threat to himself as well as others. He needs to upgrade it or pull the plug.

RE: Opera SoldLounge
April 17/2017 is just ten months away. Then what? Update your OS to a more modern system. I struggle to understand users who insist upon using older systems unless cost is a factor.

RE: Please being back the integrated email clientSuggestions and feature requests
Integrated mail is so yesterday... a path being taken by Vivaldi and undoubtedly wanted by an exceedingly small group of users (translation: it will never catch on beyond a group less than 1% of the user population). Opera needs to spend its time on innovation rather than returning to a suite of the 90's.

RE: Opera SoldLounge
Well, that is unfortunate. I suspect I'll be called a variety of names for my feelings on the matter but I simply cannot place my trust in software produced under Chinese control. I've been with Opera since 2000 but I guess this means it's time to look elsewhere.

RE: Remove all BS from Opera?Opera for Windows
Have we really declined this much in terms of vulgar language that it is no longer recognized and needs to be pointed out? Very sad.

RE: I want to remove Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Amazon, Bing and Wikipedia ?Opera for Windows
and one lives with a sense of gratitude that somebody else has bothered to make a nifty tool for free that one doesn't have to code and debug themself - if even they could.
Perhaps you can understand that...A sense of gratitude. Ah... something I very much doubt igelmitdeagle would grasp. But it was a good reminder for all of us. Thanks.
