If you invite me to your group you will be blocked.

After calming down, these are the only two things I have a problem with. The sig box size, and the reply window.

Well Enough Alone...

The text coler is going to confuse me for a very long time now. I'll read someones post and think it's a likk that I've clicked on previosly and when I do see a link, by force of habbit, I'll think it's regular text! Arg!!!

Yes, changing it would be good. In my case I have a dark blue background, not white. If the site used system colors for both foreground and background or used custom colors that contrast against each other it would be fine, not one or the other. The way it's set up now is it's using the system defined color for the background and using it's own color (black) for the foreground. black text doesn't contrast well on a dark background.

Not sure what your getting at...

Hows your bg blue? and obviously, if the text box's color turned to black, the text would have to be white. Which makes more sense anyway, since thats the post format currently. Black bg, white text (for standard members at least)

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

I like it how it is, maybe a different color for mods, the orange is kind of...odd.

No chance. Achronos is dead set against colour text formatting in public forums.


It was abused in the past. It will never happen again.

Like This: Screenshot

My background is blue because that's how I have Windows set up in Display Properties(appearance wise)(application background color)(classic windows style). The color of the text box input is independent of the color of the text box background color. My guess is it's probably because there's a style sheet in there somewhere that says that text box text needs to be black but it also doesn't say that text box backgrounds need to be white.

Windows Live ID text input does it too (any Live ID site) and I guess that's just the price I pay for using a dark color scheme. .NET Passport/Live ID is already many years old and they still haven't fixed it yet.

That is all.

Thanks for explaining how to change it. <3 grey.

Yeah, you can make the background a darker color, but that only makes things worse because you can't change the foreground.
