Finally got round to upgrading the site to the offical v2.2.1 i have also updated the style with a fresh theme but still keeping most of the orginal looks.
Not been around for some time due to work so it was nice to get online over the weekend and spend some time on the site

Updated the badges page to look a little more compact with a grid effect and added category title. The add-on is free and can be found here https://xenforo.com/community/threads/badges.169672/

Hello Brad, are your badges free of rights and usable by anyone or are they your creations and are reserved for you?

Moved logo into navigation to reduce wasted space but still using the default bolt background.
visitor menu changed up to a little dropdown to access main features.

Hello, It's too black for me. A dark style doesn't necessarily mean a black style. There is a lot of color that allows you to darken without pulling to the black. Why you don't try very dark purple for example. This one, form FreeCodeCamp, is a pure wonder rgb(49, 49, 70)...
Or simply a dark grey like this one rgb(46, 48, 49).
Have a good day !

For example those sites are dark but there is no black on it.
I've made a dark theme for my previous style and i used a chrome extension called Dark-reader, this makes it possible to turn any light site into a dark one. And it's a great way to find inspiration.

And that's why I gave up the idea of doing dark styles too, as well recommend users to use a browser extension that does extremely well the job.
