Seeing red topic

Please change the link colour from red to white or yellow. The red is hard to see.

I find the opposite problem... it shouts at me! It looks like a ripe zit ready to burst! Too distracting.

Hear hear, it's horrible. It HURTS!

Something pale would be a lot better.

I'm going with OWWWWW WTF! as my vote. That red is painful to look at. Something in white or a pale offwhite-blue would be brill.

EDIT: Ok, making it longer but just as red is even more painful. Now I'm having to scroll down before I even look at the screen.

Yay! The new lettering is much much better! Thank you whoever did that! :D

I keep almost mistaking it for a "New Private Message" message ;) but that's not even a tenth as bothersome as the painful red on grey was.

Seeing is Believing topic

Just got back and saw this.Hey! I like this new colour. It shows up and is an attention grabber.

I did something right, in my two years here at WP. I had better not let it go to my head. :wink:

Thanks to all who posted, and to the wonderful person(s) who changed the colour. :D :cheers:

The return of the Blood Red Acid topic

The Red I see.

Just when you thought it was safe to look at it.

Could someone explain? :(

That red is awful! IT SCREAMS AT ME ON EVERY PAGE! It is way too distracting. :eew:

I can't even look at the video anyway because I've only got slow dial-up internet. :(

Seeing the red makes me think of "danger" and something is wrong.

You're not the only member, Sinsboldly.

For me articles/blogs/books/contact us/chat/shop and inbox are white
while discussion and my account/log out are dark against a slightly lighter yet rather dark grey background. Close to invisible.


And then there is the screaming red danger sign of course, which I really hope will change colour soon, please. It's both hurtful and distracting.

Change it to white IMO. I don't know why there's a need to make it stand out so much.

My link to ''Discussion'' seemed to be dark blue for a while there but it's back to white now. And on my work PC my ''My Account'' link seemed to be dark blue where it's not on my home PC.

I don't mind if it stands out, but I would think the idea would not be to stand out by annoying folks. :D

Red it and bleed topic

Me thinks that this time this link is going to be here for some time. It would be better if it was a font/colour that each member could change by choice, as is done on other forums.

Bloody awful. :evil:
