I forgot about the themes.
I remember why now, after reviewing them - none are as easy to read as the Classic version.
I forgot about the themes.
Classic has the best text contrast. The borders on white background themes add too much visual noise that distracts from the content that is at a lower contrast (at least for the 'color' options). Because the lines and page bg have the highest contrast, the eye is constanly pulled away from the lower contrast text on light color to the the higher contrast areas.

make that color #CCC
Link for theme previews...
I had to remove the themes link from the polls; it was screwing up the "What's New" box. So in case you're curious, the themes can be seen right here. Or if you have broadband and want to skip the "choose which theme to view" page, just click here for a 212KB image of all four themes.

Themes
The classic theme is the best - good contrast and clarity etc. Can we get the "nested" version of the comments pages as a default setting? - I always have to turn it on so i can read the whole 'conversation' in the comments of a hint. A simple cookie to let me turn it on once would be lovely....
Color (lined links)
The first thing I do when I come here with a new browser is to set the theme to the one called Color. I don't know why I use lined links rather that mouseovers, but at least I can't stand the Classic design. The choice to bring in themes was greatly appreciated by me; somehow I think the classic design is to dark, murky.
Color effects == color w/mouseover
I had to check my display preferences to see which one I was using. The 'mouseover/effects" theme name is different in the poll, in the results, and in the display preferences. |
