i'm so glad you mentioned it ... i thought i had messed up the settings on my PC

I wouldn't call it royal blue. There's nothing royal about it.

I agree. It is a mess. I hope it isn't permanant. It looks like a programming error to me... and the text has changed size, showing fewer lines, along with inconsistant line depth.

The colour clashes with the house blue, too... (too cyan). The site seems to be losing its design cohesion.... (shrugs)

I see the blue titles in MyThreads and Bookmarks, but not here nor in any other forum............

As stated the fonts also changed, hopefully they give us back the old font/color or give me a choice of colors to pick on my own.

I don't understand why they always change something that most readers are comfortable with and the change was just for making a change that does nothing new.

YES!

An excellent lens lasts a lifetime, an excellent DSLR, not so long.

I like it, too!

The yellow is getting really boring!

Now, if only we can get them to put the link back on the last post posted (like it used to be) on the 'My Threads' page, then we'd really have some progress going on here!

I'd say that if this is the worst thing we have to worry about today, we're a pretty lucky bunch!

But will they confess?

A great improvement to our browsing experience IMHO. It's too bad it might have been nothing more than a coding glitch. A pity as I was hoping for fuchsia next week. But then I need to get more often and the weather's been dismal...

Cheers,

Bigger text, I noticed - while it lasted. The blue was nicely legible on the darker grey background, but I found it hard to see on the mid grey background title areas.

Some switchable CSS options, to be selected by each user, would keep everyone happy IMO - a small number of "skins", in effect, including varying text sizes, background and text colours, and column widths to cater for different viewing circumstances. These days, that includes smartphones - which involve very different ergonomics than a big monitor does.

If the selection of "flat" or "threaded" could be made that way too - as a user viewing option - instead of getting constantly changed (by the URL) when someone links to a post, many would probably appreciate that.

A camera site tends to self-select its visitors to those who can see fairly well, but that does not mean accessibility is no issue at all; for example, I know there are colour blind members and people who currently struggle with small text. And some of these may have given up and left. Others have had to override CSS in their browsers, which may mangle the carefully designed look.

I think it's good to test these things for real, on real pages - not sure if they meant to do this on the public site though ;-)

Now - if they could just please ban (for UK users) the flashy "bmi" airline adverts that glue up my Internet Explorer so horribly...



I know, I could block ads permanently - but I regard leaving them visible as my personal dues for using this site, since that is how it is funded AFAIK.

As a complete freeloader, I would have no right at all to (constructively) criticise it!

Most of the stuff here - including this you are reading now, btw - is the energy fluctuations of the empty void - posts and counter posts popping into existence out of nowhere, then cancelling each other out again, in a brief flash of purposeless, inevitable, zero sum activity.

That's not content. You can't fill a container by adding more vacuum ;-)

look what happened the last time you tried, the text turned blue !
If that hasn't advanced mankind one gigantic step,
I don't know what has.
I look at it as stepping into their dimension from my own,
which has been a very pleasant sunny day in Gippsland
which is a long way from the forecast end of the world.

Testing?? In prod? Don't you have a dev environment? Oh dear.
