    I'm one of those who's having problems with the pale text and bright background.

    IMHO, there's a fine line between "clean" and "sterile" and I do think this current skin may have drifted over that line a bit.

    The ads, along with the entire forum should be fluid and adjusting to fit your monitor.


    The Forum Jump, pull down menu is still there. one add banner lower than you are used to.
    Steve, this what I'm seeing on some pages. For instance, this is the 3rd page of the "disoriented" thread. The 4th page seems normal.

    The Forum Jump isn't what we were referring to. There used to be a set of links at the bottom of each page, identical to the one at the top that linked back to the forum you're in. For example, this thread would have a link that looked like this:

    X Marks the Scot - A Community of Kiltwearers. > General Kilt Talk > General Kilt Talk > Totally disoriented..

    It allowed you to clink General Kilt Talk and pop straight back to that forum instead of scrolling through a dropdown or scrolling back to the top to click that link. It's just a really handy feature.

    Anyway, thank you for all the work you're putting in to this, Steve. I'm sure it'll all be sorted out in no time.

    On the plus side, these changes are forcing me to break my XMarks habit!

    I kind of agree.

    I think I'm going to go to the bontanical garden and look at the state of the rose garden. It won't hurt my eyes or confuse me.

    I think you'll find thats due to the large pic in the vorpallemur post on Page 3.
    It doesn't resize - but everything else on the page necessarily assumes that that is the width it has to be.

    Yeah...I think that I'm going to take some time off and come back later when things are, hopefully, sorted out. Sorry, but this seems like change for change's sake and no real improvement is being demonstrated.

    Later...


    Best

    Now I can see that to read easily. Is there any chance we can have print like that?

    Jock,

    I changed the text in my response to black/ bold. I agree that it is much easier to read.

    Cordially,
