I've edited the theme a bit and given it a black background. Wasn't able to restore the original link colour but the grey text actually looks okay, but may need brightening.
Some sort of mass find/replace think will need doing with posts because all the URLs still point to the old site.

That's probably true... the problem is I am a C++/# programmer.... not so much a SQL one...heh. Much Googling will be required .

There seems to be a plugin for that:

I'm happy to give it a go but you're the only one who can restore things if it goes wrong.
edit: Theme restored!
I thought the original theme was called Twenty Twelve so I installed that and tried and failed to edit the colours. I'd been using the wayback machine to compare so today I had the idea of looking at the css there, and then from the filenames discovered the required theme was actually called Twenty Eleven. I installed that and immediately saw that it has a built in 'dark mode' setting, so all I had to do was change the link colour and background images. I wish I'd done that first because I spent ages using the wrong theme, but it's done now so it's not the end of the world.

I hope the site is up soon. :) Some links did not work before, such as the lamp cages. Would be nice to download them.

I've just run the search/replace tool I mentioned, and it seems to have successfully edited the download links so they start at the current site instead of the old one. Some links are working, some aren't. I think that just a case of those files not having been uploaded yet (2.5GB in total).

R Soul I am curious what tool you used, where was it located?

Looks like the new site is down.

It's a pity that this site is no longer available. i was going to search for some rails objects but impossible. :(
