    Nah not really, but it's sort of straining on the eyes after awhile. COLORS, the blue and light blue, should be changed, just for a day to see if people like it. I'm not sure if the color chosen was a conincidence for the sky, but whatever. Might I recommend these, colors? They are much more relaxing and easier on the eyes...

P.S. Sorry, I've been stuck on this new card for awhile.  Smiley

Quite nice colours but a bit dark. Personally I find these colours quite nice. Very neutral, and I think people have got used to them being like this. Changing them would be something like changing the name of SimV...

Just my thoughts Wink

Personally I've been here over two years and I've got no complaints, some sites I can even read the text as they have things like yellow text on a green background!

    Ya, I have gotten used to the colors after 2 years now.  Grin  But after an hour or two gets to ya. Yellow on Green is pretty bad though. Try white on black. You'd think it be a good color combination, but it will kill your eyes. I was squinting and everything to try and ease it, but no, so I just left.  Wink

I do agree that the current colours are not quite perfect, but compared to many, many other sites they are pretty good. Scientifically the best colours is black text on a white background. That puts the least strain on your eyes.

Generally a neutral lighter background and neutral darker text is what I find best.

oooooh noooooo, never! Please mods don't change to this. Yuk! Anyway I like the SimV colours. They are attractive and they 'fit', if u know what I mean.
These colours would be highly unsuitable for here.

We should put everything in quote form.

Hows this? Should help quite a bit. But the whole page would have to be quote. Mixing gray with blue and black would be somewhat harder.  Shocked
