Nice colour change, very tasteful and more importantly, legible in bright light. :)

Grant are you messing with our minds? My font has gone back to that browny red colour. Actually it looks like rust.
I liked the blue!

nope, it's still nice blue!

Are you on another computer and need to force a refresh to get the latest code on it?

I wouldn't mess with your minds... :innocent:

Can we have the rusty brown back please? I really liked it... Blue is boring. :D:funmeteryes::ban: Any chance of setting up a CSS so I can set my own colour? Maybe have pink as one of the options.:smartass:

hope that helps!

The problem with that is you very quickly get into the realms of having to pan about the page to read the end of each line. This requires a lot of hand to eye coordination. Not the best solution for someone with optical problems.

In the reading systems I made for the visually impaired, the text was always formatted so that whatever was on screen was sequential text. It was done by scanning in the text, OCR'ing it then displaying it in the size required using graphics on variable sized fonts. Imagine a small window

The Quick
Brown fox
jumped over
the lazy

This gives the reader a dollop of text big enough to convey information.. now imagine just magnifying like this

The quick
now yo have to pan right until this disappears hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

brown fox
now yo have to pan right until this disappears hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

jumped over ,,,,, ad nauseum..

so magnification is not he answer unless the text is justified to suit the magnification.

I buy a bigger screen to get bigger text. this is defeated by the use of higher resolutions :(.

Sounds like you need to force a refresh!

ANY time things seem weird, force a refresh - on any site!
