The colour scheme on my monitor is quite bad, it's really hard to disquinish between text boxes and the rest of the screen. It took me longer than I'd like to admit to see the quick reply box.

I had a look in the account settings but couldn't see whether I can change my own colours, is it there and I'm just blind? or not possible?

ta

Yes, I know I can adjust my brightness/contrast etc, but I'd prefer to leave it as is.

Thanks for the feedback, we do not have any settings where you can change the colours.

I will look into making the reply box more noticeable and increasing contrast around the place.

I agree, especially with the reply box – if you didn't know it was there it's quite easy to glance over.

Will work on it ;)

I'm having to agree with Benlav here. Contrast and also options to scale up within the forums would be nice. At 2560x1600 there's more wasted space than content.

EDIT: LOVE YOU ALL THOUGH

I once retrofitted the forums using a plugin called Stylish.
I have since seen it used by a mate to blanket style just about EVERY website into a charcoal flavour. Surprisingly works quite well (doesn't completely fuck everything).
Folks who don't like could do that, if so inclined.

I made a post in the wasted space thread which has Stylish css that makes it slightly easier on the eyes

Perhaps tone down the white? I'm getting blinded at night after finishing a game and going to check the forums!
