The colour change helps so much for reading the threads. The grey on grey when posting is still hard on the eyes though.

What I find almost impossible to read is the preview rendering of quoted text in the normal skin.

The only thing I don't like is it doesn't autoscroll when you are posting when you get to the bottom of the screen it doesn't automatically roll so you can see what you are typing, and after you are done, you have to manually scroll down to see the post buttons. This is Chrome.

I've added code to make the window auto-scroll when the message textbox gets focus. Please let me know if that helps.

With the normal skin and the latest styling I find the blue text, etc. giving much better contrast and is easier to read.

This week the normal skin was replaced with a 9/11 skin so I assume this is the contrast you are referring to. I will revisit the styles on the normal skin when it returns to see if I can find a better setting for contrast.

What would be an enhancement is styling the thread starter name in a different color (e.g. the dark red) to make it easier to distinguish their posts in the thread. I usually read all the post, but sometimes it would be helpful to easily see the starters posts. You may also want to style the mods, guides and admin post names with their own styles to make them more identifiable.

Great idea! This is in place now.

The other thing I noticed is the light bulbs to indicate new posts appear to only show up if you keep the browser open when I close the browser/shut the machine down and come back they do not show up.

Finally it does not look like the times of the thread posts, etc. are getting shifted to the users time zone.

What I find almost impossible to read is the preview rendering of quoted text in the normal skin.

I will be working on these items next. smile

The grey on grey when posting is still hard on the eyes though.

I made an update to this. Please let me know if that helped.

Yes, that is correct.

https://www.survivinginfidelity.com/forums/?tid=646587&AP=LastPage#mid8687990 Left a post on the old bug report post without realizing the the forum it was in was closed. There's a flaw in the img src posting on the new site that doesn't play well with facebook image urls. Posting the same url in the legacy site works perfectly. I dumped the page source for both IMG tags in the above post.

Thank you for reporting this. The system is converting all image tags to lower case, which is breaking the links for images hosted on case-sensitive servers. It will be fixed in the next publish.
