Are you tired of being blinded by the white wall paper on the forums? Go to the bottom left corner and hit the drop down "change theme" option and it will change to old color that is easier on the eyes.

Just wanted to help out the new members.

Thanks!!!

Yeah, I nearly went blind the day they changed that. Changed it immediately and never looked back.

Though a heads up, some of the weird highlighting and font effects people occasionally use make entire blocks of text indecipherable. Oh well.

Bump

As a newbie let me thank you on behalf of my eyes :)

Holy nuts thank you.

I used the old theme for a long time, but recently switched to the standard. It helps me see what most other people are seeing, and eliminate all that odd highlighting.

I'll take my retinas over the musings of strangers.

Thanks!

You can always highlight weirdly formatted text to see it as well.

Yeah but I'm on a tablet, highlighting is horribly imprecise, more trouble than it's worth.

This is going to make my late night browsing so much easier on the eyes...

Thank you so much!!!!!!

Thanks !!!

f.lux is free and you can set it to adjust your monitor brightness automatically depending on the hour of the day. takes about 1 minute to adjust to your liking.
