This way you can change colors and some layout elements.In summary, the conversation discusses the possibility of changing the color of a website by customizing it. The option to do so is not readily available, but there are plugins for browsers that can be used with some CSS knowledge. The conversation also mentions a specific color choice and the existence of a guide for using these plugins.

Is there an option to change the colour of the site by customizing it?

Where is that option in "MY PF"?

There are plugins for browsers where you can change websites (css, JS, ...) for you locally. Just needs basic css knowledge, but it is a lot of effort to get a new style to look nice.

The colours of New Jersey Devils.

@mfb do you have a guide you recommend me to use?

I don't have the time right now to learn this stuff, maybe in the future.

Depends on your browser. "Stylish" is an add-on that works for Firefox and Chrome, "Stylebot" is for Chrome, other browsers can have similar tools.

The basic idea: The website style is defined with a css file (https://www.physicsforums.com/css.php?css=xenforo,form,public&style=10&dir=LTR&d=1485078905), and you can locally set up your own css file to override things defined there.
