Font Color

Post by Mark Edwards »

How can I change the font color of the text on the forum? It currently is blue, and I have trouble seeing it on the screen, I think it might be an eaiser read if it were black and white. Any ideas. Thank you in advance.

If you're seeing blue text in forum messages, I'm not sure why that's happening - it's black for me.

But, one way to change it to black and white would be to open your browser preferences, whatever it's called in the browser you're using, and tell it to use your colors instead of the web page's colors, and you can pick the colors you want for text and background. They normally default to black and white.

Mark;
The default colors for the board are black text on a light gray background. If you are seeing blue text it is due to the font setting in your browser. Check your options to see if this is the case. Try resetting the font color to black and see if that fixes it. If not, you may have some issues that need discussing here.

Maybe there's something wrong with your monitor.

Links show up in blue, and visited links show up in red. You might be able to override those setting in your Internet Options.

Bob -

It's not a major problem, just have a hard time seeing the blue writing on the links, once I click the link the writing and background is black and white. Just having trouble reading that blue font against a grey background. Thank ya'll for all the tips.
