Absolutely, personally, I prefer the "free" color of this site. The color of "Free" has such a nice Hue to it. Thanks for keeping it "Free" Phil.

Hi Phil: nr.3, white lettering on a light gray background - such as the listing column on the left- may not be as classy, but for me it would considerably improve legibility. Great site, many thanks!

Definitely as it is: black.

That is one of the many things I love about this site. Please do not change it, as it is much easier to read text this way.-------------------------------------------Andy Biggs http://abiggs.tvmcapital.com

Like the contrast; leave it black.

Well if you are looking in Phil, the colour is great but the text looks really small on new monitors.

I've just got a flat screen and the resolution is 1280x1024. I know this is still rare but it will become much more common and I can tell you,the text size is really small. Uncomfortable. I expect there are people laughing at this, or will say get glasses, but there really is nothing wrong with my eyes, I can see it, it's just that I'm conscious that it is a strain and working at a computer as much as I do, I am very careful about not damaging my eyes.

The frame constrains the text size . I can force it to change using the accessibility function but then everything shifts out of position and becomes just a horrible mess.

If you could make it so that if I change the view to large, it actually becomes large and fits within the frames, then this would be perfect.

Thanks once again for a great site. Surely the best reviews there are, not once or twice, but every time.
regards
Ian

1. I find it easy on the eyes and the colour scheme very distinctive.

Mtnbill · Jan 30, 2002

No eye strain with current set up. I "HIghly Recommend" this set it!!!

Well, I have no preference until the text is readable. Nothing bad with current colors, too. Maybe it is possible to make the color user selecatable, using several pre-defined style sheets?? Saved in a cookie with other preferences. This makes things harder for you, though, since transparent images do not look good in different backgrounds, but it is possible to use non-transparent images or use schemas where transparent areas are used with certain colors only, that do not change.

3 years old thread? Hmm, that funny! And confirms that 3 years is unbelievable short time!!!

I think the site looks great as it stands. Certainly the most professional DP site I've found.
