White text on low graphics forum style

[chobibo]

Is it possible to filter out white colored text and change it to black Ralle? I like using the low graphics style and it's hard to read white text with the default background color. Thanks.

 

[Daffa]

Chobibo, did you use the default one [the one with leaves around it's corner] as background?

 

[chobibo]

I'm using the low graphics style Daffa, that's the Night Elf style.

 

[Daffa]

I see. So you need to have the color for letter to be black instead.
Why did you use Low Graphic?

 

[chobibo]

I just like the minimalist look, that's all.

Not to mention that some of us are using 3g net! Mine is 64kbit for example.

Yes, your case is rather more important than mine.

 

[Ralle]

You are the guy using white text all over right? I don't think we can change your post formatting. That sounds like a can of worms.

 

[chobibo]

No, that's not me. You must be talking about Rheiko. Anyways, I was just asking if it could be done, I have a hard time reading white text, because the background on the Low Quality style is white too.

Oh, forgot to say thanks. Thanks man, I'll just keep selecting the text.

You're super kind to Rheiko This would be his thread to post. Actually I'd make same kind of thread if Dr Super Good would used white text. His posts always seem very important.

 

[chobibo]

I wouldn't call this kind jondrean, I actually don't like seeing white text. What I was inquiring about is if there was a way to turn all those white text to black because people who use the Low Graphics style can't read text without selecting it first.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Then where I could spot white text if we excluded Rheiko's posts?

I don't think if manipulating others' post is even a good solution. Maybe giving Low Graphics theme different bg color?

 

[chobibo]

Yeah, that was what I was hoping for. I have to select white text every time I want to read it.

Where do you see white text on a white background? Got none of that for this page.

If you're not active on Off-Topic, you can't see any.

Let me show you the way to insanity.

Way to insanity = Posts made by Rheiko?

 

[chobibo]

It's not a personal attack dude, try using Low Graphics style and try reading the white texts.
EDIT: I don't hate Rheiko, I really don't hate anyone. I'm just finding it hard to select and read the text every time a white text appears. Jad also uses white text too, but only for reviews.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Okay, I see now. That's unreadable, he should stop using, but it's his own decision to make, since the majority of us uses the night elf theme.

Hidden

Edit: You never should hate anyone on forums. It's just different place than real life, because the hate, possible debate and everything can bee seen by hundreds of people, for eternity in worst scenario.

 

[chobibo]

No, I'm not saying he should stop it, it's his right to use white text. The reason I was asking this on the Site Discussion section was if it was possible to use a different color scheme, It's good you mentioned the background color, I think that would at least be possible. I hope.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

You're requesting a style update for hiveworkshop because of one user, and rejecting my suggestion of asking the user to change his style? As I've said, you're super kind to Rheiko.

However, this is only request, so it's up to Ralle to consider this.

 

[chobibo]

Well, Metalbear was also having the problem, so it's 2 of us lol. You make it sound like I was forcing someone to make these changes for me, I don't. Anyways, don't worry about it now, I think Ralle said something about can of worms, and I think that means no.

Lmao

Edit:

I do? Sorry. This was only request, I know it.

Because writing in stupid colors all over the place isn't stupid.

In any case, here's the easiest solution (or search for equivalent settings in your browser if you are not using Firefox).

 

[chobibo]

Thanks man, that solves my problem. I hope Metalbar uses firefox too.

 

[Metalbear]

Yep, I feel sorry for the people who dont use FF while the others abuse the white text...

 

[chobibo]

I recently discovered that teal and light orange fucks up the color scheme too.

 

[RED BARON]

Different background, given that black background uses less power and should not cause any more strain in regards to Internet connection - could be a solution. Or just ignoring the issue, given that one can easily select colors that can't be seen even with the default look, and thus it is really more of a selective problem that can be solved simply by marking the text for instance or the already proposed solution..my thread didn't update until I entered it again - so consider my post somewhat irrelevant.

 

[Ralle]

People should just stop using custom colors for all their posts. We used to have a rule against this abuse.

+1^1 000 000 000 I never realized Ralle was that straight

Now, what about Map Development and Map Section Threads? Aren't we telling users to make good information with nice BB Codes Decoration about their maps on those sections?

Correct but also there are certain limits to this especially if the color is far from being seen. You can use colors for decorations in-text but there is in no need of using and abusing it with colors most likely those that cannot be seen (strains the eyes) and far from being seen colors because it just makes it less readable. Everyone should be wise at picking color when it comes to making description.

And sorry for butting in.

If I recall it was a rule against rainbow colors, and the only one who was somewhat borderline on that was Shados, given the variety of colors used in his posts.

 

[Ralle]

In the beginning Shados only used purple. Colors are fine, but decorating every single post with the same custom color is silly.

True, he adapted over time. But still, I loved the fact that he used them (Made me enjoy seeing his posts though I would assume that if what he wrote was pointless the same association of the colors and post would not have occurred, so perhaps it should only be good posters/smart people that use custom colors ) - So I can understand the sentiment to use them.

 

[chobibo]

I'd like to apologize to everyone for causing quite a ruckus. My intent was to just inform Ralle that there are colors not compatible with the low quality style, I also did request something stupid, thankfully the can of worms made me realize that request was a bit selfish.

So please, close this thread.
