The grey titles aren't cutting it for me

[Tucson Thump]

The grey on white titles specifically. Too little contrast and too much flare until they turn darker when you run the cursor over them

Tried the UI.X Dark option and find there is still too little contrast.

Not as bad as reading Wired when they run the text across a color. More interested in efficient communication than a snazzy look.

Now, white chalk on a blackboard ... those were the days .....

hmmm, I haven't touched a thing and mine is in the standard style, and my thread titles are in blue.

Thanks for sitting tight while we updated the forum software and migrated to a bigger, badder server.

We've also made changes that should help the overly-aggressive captcha issue. If it hasn't improved, please PM me and let me know.

If you notice any issues with the new forum, please also contact me directly and let me know before posting about them on the forum.

Finally, we'll be updating the styling of the forum, particularly the extra-low contrast of the text, so hang tight. Thanks again!

Thank you, James

Blue? May be your system preferences are providing that. @sergiodeblanc , are yours blue?

No, they’re gray/grey thankfully.

I see nothing to howl about really, just some niggles that really don't mean diddly so. I was just happy the site was up as fast as it was. Thanks James.
Oh, touch wood... no sign of "that which shall not be named"

Not a fan of the new format. Might be time to move on.

 

[dmatthews]

There's a style chooser on the bottom left of every page. The "Default" style has the blue headers.

See this is me not knowing if you're kidding or not.

Default screen will provide black/white/blue.

 

[james]

Default screen will provide black/white/blue.

Thank you! Yes, you can change the colors with a style switcher at the bottom left. We’ll be improving this style too.

Everything else should be significantly better.

 

[Herr Squid]

Hey, I went down to the style switcher (it said "UI.X" at first) at the bottom left of the page and chose "Default Style" and got a much more readable scheme with blue titles and orange highlights.

That was a big improvement over the one called "Use Default Style" which has the bad grey on grey titles. "UI.X" looked the same to my eyes. Confusing? Yeah.

Why? It’s the same sh!t with different colors. Just like the first 10 years of the PRS catalog. Hey Ohh!

 

[zerolight]

Yay. Thanks for this. Rather odd that there are two Default options.

Blue is so much easier to read. Though the flashes of orange are a little challenging. Old eyes!
Shame it loses the PRS logo in favour of Xenforo

I miss the Captcha. Now I'm just confused if I'm even in a right place

 

[aphantomvaper]

That default changed grey to blue, yay! Lets see how the Captcha goes...

 

[Daryl Jones]

I just switched to the "default" I think I like that better. Sorta miss the stats though (call me a numbers guy), 12 years of 'admin' on other sites maybe...

I just turned that data back on. Some things defaulted to questionable defaults (for my taste) in the upgrade, but we'll work them out.
