Live Video Demo
Astrion is a premium dark XenForo 2.3 style built around a futuristic cosmic command interface, deep navy surfaces, icy cyan illumination and restrained amber accents.
Designed to feel immersive without becoming distracting, Astrion transforms XenForo into a polished space-inspired interface while keeping the familiar forum structure, navigation and usability intact.
The style has been refined across desktop, tablet and mobile rather than simply scaling the desktop design down. Layouts, spacing, navigation, message areas and responsive behaviour have all been tuned so Astrion maintains its identity across different screen sizes.
A complete visual identity
Astrion uses a carefully controlled visual system built around near-black and deep navy surfaces, cyan command lighting, subtle ice highlights and limited warm accents.The interface includes restrained technical detailing, command rails, subtle illumination, atmospheric space backgrounds and carefully placed motion effects without turning the forum into an overdone gaming interface.
Forum content remains the focus.
Forum list
The forum list has been heavily refined with a cleaner command-style presentation.Category areas use a simplified hierarchy with subtle structural lighting, quieter statistics, refined latest-post information and custom forum icon treatment.
Astrion also includes subtle animated effects around selected desktop surfaces and a fast shimmer effect through forum rows.
On mobile and tablet, heavier border and page animations are disabled to keep the interface cleaner and lighter while retaining the row shimmer and overall Astrion atmosphere.
Threads and messages
Thread posts and message areas use custom Astrion user cells with:- Dark personnel-style user panels
- Refined avatar treatment
- Clear username hierarchy
- Muted secondary information
- Custom message separators
- Astrion-styled reactions
- Refined action bars
User information remains easy to scan without overpowering the actual post content.
Direct messages
Direct messages have been given the same level of attention as public threads.Conversation messages, participant information, conversation statistics, locked conversation notices and reply areas all use the Astrion visual language rather than falling back to standard XenForo colours.
Navigation
Astrion includes a fully refined navigation system with a strong desktop hierarchy and responsive mobile behaviour.Selected navigation items use restrained cyan illumination while account, message, alert and search controls remain visually balanced.
Unread message and alert counters have also been redesigned to match Astrion instead of using the standard red XenForo badges.
Member areas
Member profiles and related user areas have been styled to maintain Astrion’s command interface throughout the forum.Profile information, statistics, tabs, user content and supporting panels use the same dark surfaces, cyan structure and muted secondary information found throughout the rest of the style.
Moderation interface
Astrion also includes styling for XenForo moderation controls.Inline moderation bars, selectors, action controls and moderation states are integrated into the Astrion palette so moderators do not suddenly encounter bright default XenForo interface elements while working.
Responsive design
Astrion has been individually refined for desktop, tablet and mobile.Mobile layouts receive cleaner spacing, simplified category presentation, reduced motion and centred message layouts while keeping the core Astrion identity intact.
Desktop retains the fuller atmospheric and animated presentation.
