Doreen, I agree. The only way to have the grey work is go back to the old look.

I'll creat a seperate look for members who don't like the new look, this can be selected in the user options.

Another thing Sarah can try ... reduce the brightness and/or contrast settings on your monitor ... and the Color Temperature, if your monitor has that setting. This has reduced a lot of "glare" for me too, and reduced the "eye-strain" factor.

Sharon, you can't fool me with this line, I've seen your photo!

But, yes, a change of colour is in order.

Wa'il: You must be having gobs of fun with this....but I must admit, now I don't like what you've done with our names. I hope you continue the change.

Cool kewl

I was just going to suggest putting the teal-green inside the golden glow, and I see you caught my wavelength yet again.

Looks great, even for ancient, decrepit old eyeballs like Sharon's

Hi Donna,

How's this:

<div style="width:100%; font-size:12pt; color:gray; filter:Glow(color=orange, strength=4)">User Name</div></font>

To get the percentage calculated, just update your profile.

We're getting closer:

<div style="width:100%; font-size:12pt; color:teal; filter:Glow(color=orange, strength=4)">User Name</div></font>

Cool

Wa'il, I hate to be a wet blanket on all your excellent efforts, but I am finding all the posts very difficult and uncomfortable to read.

Did you say that we could put the colours back to the original scheme independently of what you are doing to these changes?

How do I go about doing this at my computer.

Regards
Joe

P.S. I find that all these colour combos are too distracting.

My signature of "jomil' is indiscernible on my computer. In fact I find that most of the names are unreadable. Maybe it is just my old computer.

Hi Joe,

A style with the old colours is now available through the profile panel. Under options at the bottom, select style "Old Look"

Default Colours

Wa'il

Colours affect different people in different ways. What is great for the majority might truly be quite depressing for others - it is not their fault ... just their particular personality. There are four basic types. ... Just making your job more interesting and challenging!!!!

I only learned about the effect of colour on me recently when I went to a colour seminar. It was absolutely fascinating. I put some of what I learned into practice and it has helped a lot in my daily life.

So take what ppl are saying seriously ... not that u don't already do that.
Take care.

You are an absolute genius.
