An option for a darker embedable chat window

veextsg

Heya,

I'm working on a web site with embedded Twitch video/chat.  The site uses pretty dark colors, but unfortunately the white chat box sticks out like a sore thumb.  I'd love to be able to change the colors on it some, with a dark grey background and light grey text.

have a read of this, they are talking about a semi transparent overlay of a iframe which you might be able to use to tone down the white chat box

@fire might know if this would work over the twitch iframe chat.

or heres a webpage talking about placing two DIVS on top of each other, place your twitch chat on your website then cover it with a semi transparent image to tone it down a bit.

Sadly you can't style the chat embed itself because of cross domain security :(
