SteveB21 Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago I'm liking the new forum colour scheme - but there seems to be a problem with the some of the fonts/colours, as circled in the attached screenshot. Is it just me & my browser (Chrome) or do others get this issue?
TableLeg Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Have you tried the Bravo theme? Looks better IMO anyway 😊
Captain Colonial Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Prepared to be bored... First, glad you like the overall colour scheme. which I think suits the 40th anniversary theme. It took a good deal of tinkering to get it looking that smart. It was the shade of red that seemed to work best across the range of things overall. Second, thanks for pointing out the slight issues. I can see a few more minor ones that I couldn't see until it went live, which I'll get too at some point. With regards to this: It now looks like this: The main problem is the colour of the numbers you circled will always be the same as the colour of the text under the title of the post, in the case "By Hedley Bennett". They cannot be separated. You can see in your example that this colour was a light grey, making it difficult to spot against a white or dark red background, as does black against a dark red bar. The only thing to do was to make the bar colour contrasting yellow (which will satisfy certain members!) and make the text colour for that bar and the indicated text black. I can assure you that was a LOT easier said than done, as there are thousands of colour variations backstage, many of which are labelled in an incomprehensible manner, that have to be tested one by one to see if they make a difference and revert them back if they do not, one by one, over and over again. Tedious is the word. So i am working on it - please be patient. 1 1
Quinten Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago I wasn't going to be a grumpy old man so soon into the new year, but could we please have the old theme available as an option? The red makes everything seem like a warning or announcement. Red is danger, blue is calm...
