Text Color vs Background Color

Postby jcecil2930 » Thu Nov 26, 2009 3:05 pm

Is there any way that one can change the text color to a post/PM here? I've noticed that the current background here as well as the current text color makes it very difficult to read any post/PMs here. With the current color scheme you only need to change the text color to white rather than what it is all ready.

The post BG color should be a dark blue with white text. PM BG color is purple with white text. At least that is the way it is set up and appears on my screens.

If the text is not white, what colors are you seeing?

Well here's what I see.

The purple background definatly is making the text hard to read as you can clearly see in the image above.
So what ever the default text color is is what needs to be changed here for the PMs.

That would seem to be a font color setting in Camren's outgoing PMs. Outgoing PM's appear as black text against a white screen to the sender, but if his color choice is one that is not light when it gets were it's going the darker text will be hard to read. I've checked the board's settings and there doesn't seem to be anything out of place. Do these darker colors appear in regular board posts too?

I see this same gray text on purple background in all forum posts. White would certainly be better.
