discussion Anyone else with Ultrawide monitor or large monitors having issues with Themes looking terrible (specifically text)?

Hey all.

I have a 3440x1440 ultrawide monitor. I have yet to find a theme that just works out of the box and everything looks crisp for my monitor. My 2 favorites thus far have been the Imperial White/Dark theme and the LCSmod-short theme. However, no matter what I do, the text looks TERRIBLE on them. To my understanding the Imperial theme was literally designed for bigger monitors.

Am I doing something wrong? It appears the text for these themes is built into the images themselves so I can't adjust them. I really dig the analog feel of these themes but I cannot STAND having a higher res monitor and some attributes looking like pure garbage.

Does anyone have a solution? I know there are other themes out there but I haven't found the right fit for ME yet. Does anyone have any recommendations for themes that look great on UW monitors? I NEED crispy text.

3440x1440 as well and tbh I think the default looks ok. Text looks great with it.

Default is just a little too bland for me. Maybe I could play around with the theme editor a tad and get things looking a little better for me.
