Am I the only one seeing burnt after images in my vision when I look away after reading posts for any amount of time on this site? Maybe I need to adjust the color scheme of my monitor but the black background with the orange/yellow font is kinda tough on my old peepers :-( Anyone else have this problem besides me?
I dont have a problem with the white on black but I cant read column headers at all.
bashir can you screenshot it and email it to me?
try sending it to bfoley(at)twistedperspectives(Dot)com
if your seeing blue in the background then its a known IE 6 bug. they fixed it with the latest 2 updates of 7 and 8. should be white highlight on black with Gold text.
I see what Fog describes....no problem for my old eyes - and they are old... ;)
Sorry,I don't have the same problem as Seikhard, though I agree with Bashir that the column headers are unreadable - I need to drag-select the text to read it. Problem appears to be that the white background color for the column headers doesn't offer enough contrast to the light color of the text. (I'm using IE6)
Yeah Bashir is using IE6... poor guy. Upgrading to 7 or 8 I recommend skipping 7 its a pile of poo. Well 6 was a pile of poo too so thats not sayin much. But by god 8 actually conforms to the W3C Web Standards. Whoa Microsoft actually obeying the "Standards" wow. Since 8 the forecast in web development looks nice. No longer having to program a IE version of your site and a version for everyone else. Opera, Firefox, Safari, Flock, etc should look fine. The issue is mainly that IE 6 cant understand alpha(Transparencies) channels in .png files. And being our site is heavy on the PNG's the default color for transparent is baby blue. Which makes reading white and yellow impossible. Heres what it should look like
If your browser doesnt show headlines like that its time to consider updating. PNG files have been widely used for about 4 years now. As JPG requires a license to automatically create images, and .gif is limited to 256 colors. PNG allows for anti-aliased transparencies with varying alpha levels. in other words I can do highlights/shadows over any texture or color on the fly.
Unfortunately I can't upgrade. Firm standards and such. IE 7 and 8 break things.
Just uploaded a fix... well supposedly. I have no way to tell for sure can you look at one of the tables and tell me if you can see the transparency or not?
That worked. Really you didnt need to do that..but thanks
BTW. I do love this site and the way you track participation in events. Brings an extra level of enjoyment for me.
hopefully this lets you see what your doing :)
