  1. TitanTV.com may have the best online grid of TV channels programming - for cable systems, satellite systems, local over-the-air reception, or combo "cable + over-the-air" or "satellite + over-the-air" for users having splitter/combiner-signal input hookups. Several channel lineups can be setup and switched between, for people who watch from more than one location. Token keys for an individual's personalized settings are provided for users to share with others in the same reception area. Since it is online, once users are registered, their own lineup(s) can be accessed from any computer, at any location, by simply logging in. I've been using TitanTV for years, and find it much better than any other I tried. I started out using Zap-TV - which went out of business. When their company was bought-up and the website was resurrected, their site was useless. TV Guide and other sites I tried were terrible. TitanTV is genuinely excellent. [I am in NO way connected to TitanTV or any of their corporate partners - I'm just an individual user, and uncompensated in any way for my descriptions of TitanTV.]

  3. This post will discuss a Stylish User Style for the site "TitanTV - Cleaner & Darker by R. Schneider)" that supersedes another user style,
  4. "TitanTV - Clean Wide & Dark" by "r3t3ch" (that I used for years), that was rendered less effective (especially the header area) by 3 separate TitanTV.com website updates in 2015. The combination of the new user style plus proper ad blocking makes the site's TV Grid MUCH more readable (less vertical wasted space due to blocked page-wide ad frames), and also more visually appealing - a dark color theme, plus beautiful grid-cell color gradients that reverse light-over-dark --> dark-over-light when hovered (due to the excellent code of "Valacar's Dark Gradient Theme", incorporated into both the new user style and the one it supersedes).
