Try putting your glasses on dude, it does wonders for ones vision.

PS

David, the Blue is just fine for me, however the Old Cootas who utilise this site may have other ideas.

Yeah, the whole thing is a bit garish. A bit less contrast would be easier on the eyes.

Agree, the blue seems to over power the white making it very difficult to read and yes I have my glasses on.............

Muzbury,
best to send a message direct to exploroz with your problem.

I know where you are coming from and it will only be resolved by members explaining their individual problems.

Many are not so young fellas and as we know our eyes are one of the first things to start failing.

May you see all that is pleasant around you,

RA.

I like the blue its the baby s.....yellow( in follow up ) thats playing on my eyes or was that the PORT .......
cheers

I find the colour scheme unncecessarily garish, bright and contrasty. Same colours, but tone it down a bit would be ok.

It's a bit like loud music in the bush - you don't need it.

Personal taste of course, but that's my feedback.

Cheers

Guys and Girls,
As mentioned by Michelle yesterday we are not finished in the forum a all. In fact I just made the forum work whilst I rebuilt the shop. I then had a requirement to publish where I was upto and as yet I have not come back to the forum. I fully indend to rebuild the forum layout to be a little closer to the shop systems and ensure the blue is not as profound it is a heading colour but in the forum system I used headings a little too much. Rest assured I will make it heaps better just give me some time and I will get to it.

Hey thanks for the feedback - it is how the system moves forward and we do take it all onboard.

just as a slight diversion, the thing I have trouble with is those 4x4 mags who insist on putting their text on a dark background. You're following an article, black on white and it suddenly becomes black on aubergine because the designer/editor thinks it looks trendier. End of article. It's not just an old fart problem either - our kids can't read some of them either.

I don't have a problem reading these colours, but different colours suit different eyes so i can understand the problem, so hope it suits most when finalised.

What i would like to see is captions on all those lovely photos that scroll across the top. Meanwhile the site is still too slow to be useful for me :(

The only issue I have with the solid blue is that, on my computer its the same colour I get when I highlight text - so at first glance it looks as if bits of text have been highlighted.

Cheers,

Val.

Sorry David but it is a little too blue for me as well. Perhaps it's just the wrong blue.
Hope you and the family are well.
