URGH! Bold White?

Postby TheTheorist » Wed May 11, 2005 12:25 pm

I'm used to being faced with the mellow magic mushroom colours of green and orange I'm now faced with an offensive, bright bold white text!?

I hope it doesn't stay that way!

Just my oppinion!

Yes. I don't like it.

For a quick moment I thought my character was surrounded by dead people. :shock:

:? Yep .. I was following the cries to get rid of the Orange links
... and hoping it wasn't done . I personally have trouble reading the Bold White and Normal White mixed together - The orange at least broke up the page making it eaiser to See objects, text and actions - now they blend into one :cry:

hallucinatingfarmer : Which browser are you using

The link style is controlled by a Cascading Style Sheet - your browser may have cached the old style sheet or is handling it differently

But to be honest you are lucky you still see the orange links so don't do anything !!!

I prefer it, I found the mix orange and white harder to read than all white with a mix of bold and normal

This minority complained, and no one said anything at the time, so I guess Jos was to assume this is what we wanted.
I hate it.

Saw this coming.

There are, quite frankly, so many links in cantr now, that I don't like the way the pages look with either one. I do like the naming of everything and think it's hella cool, so I want all those links so I can play with things.

I am rather amused by the supporting arguments to change it back:

I don't know if this can be solved. There's a story, I think it's one of Aesop's fables, about a father and son and a donkey taking a load to market. Long story short, they try to make everyone happy and thier stuff and the donkey fall into a gorge and thier penniless for trying to make people happy. You can't please everyone.

Except on the web. But I think Jos has more important things to code that personal settings for web link colors.
Reality was never my strong point.

Well, I don't like it. Everything blends together now and it's easy to skim past the important stuff.
