Either i'm going blind, or...
...someone changed the text color.

In the name of the people of Apolyton, I demand a return to the status quo. My eyes hurt.

Take an aspirin and go to bed. You'll feel better in the morning.

You can change the style back. Yes, ACS does mess up your style setting occasionally.

How do I change the style back? I use the standard grey skin, and light blue hurts my eyes much more than dark blue

The styles can be accessed from 'Options' in the control panel.

MoO is the best for my eyes. White text on a blue background.

Yep I can't belief I used the default style for almost two years .
Each time I get an auto-logout and see the default style, it actually scares and immediately starts to give me a headache now.

They changed the link color to a lighter shade of blue in "Normal/Default"-style.

I preferred the old, darker shade of blue to be honest.

I also noticed today that the link text colour has turned a lighter blue. I'm using the default style.

Like all such changes to the familiar, I don't think it's good. It looks far better when the link text is a darker blue.

I love the default skin, and it has been slightly altered: links are now light blue instead of being dark blue, and it's not good. I'd love to see the default skin revert to dark-blue for links again

Well Spike was an old uni nickname, and the Dr was something I added years ago to make it more unique online. I thought it was time for an update.

I noticed the img links (new thread, post reply) became coloured. It's nice. Gayish, but nice.

I wish you'd somehow update the graphics for the row about the post (show profile, send email, edit, reply with quote... etc).

Just keep them small

To be frank, I liked DrSpike better.


On-topic, did the link color just become even lighter blue?

Why did you like DrSpike better?

Edit: I also wondered about the colour, but since I was playing around with forums styles I assumed I imagined it.

We have multiple "doctors" here on the site, both real and fake one; "Doc" is so generic.
"DrSpike" was really you, but that's just my opinion.

It matters not, for to quoteth Shakespeare: A DrSpike by any other name would spam just as much.

Anyways, maybe I'll do a BC and wait until everyone is used to Doc then switch back.

I thought of using 'Z' as a nickname, but glad I didn't.

But yeah DrSpike is better. Doc by itself is pretty dull.

That would go a long way towards helping me be able to tell you and Skanky apart.

Yep. Moo3 is very easy on the eyes. Easy, that is, until someone posts something using blue text. Complete washout. There ought to be an automatic correction across styles to keep the text from diappearing into the background.
