You're welcome.

Like I said, it's not the perfect solution but it's better than nothing.

I've been struggling to get that right. The problem is that the Proboards crapware won't let me control certain aspects of the text.

Ok, I'm dumb. I figured it out.

I like blue better, I think. The font changes are good too.

These are still hard to read though:

Do you see those links as images, or as plain text links?

They should be images like this:

But if they aren't loading properly they will appear as ordinary text links like this: [ Home ].

The gap between Orange voters and Blue voters is closing... so perhaps I should set a date when the poll will close, if one side is ahead by then they will determine which colour scheme becomes the default.

So on February 1st the poll will close and a winner will be decided.

Oh, they're images. But they are still blurry to me. Like I said, could be the eyes. I'm at the point now that sometimes I have to use glasses to read the screen and sometimes I don't - depending on whats there. I normally wear glasses just for reading. I think those images would be clearer if the text in them didn't have the heavy shadowing/3D look or whatever...

No, it's not your eyes. The letters in the graphics are just too small.

But you're not using the right shade of orange. The darker shade selected by LunarOrbit is easy enough on the eyes, I think.

Oh... it's tied... and I haven't voted. I'm the swing vote. The decision is back on my shoulders...

I must say, the blue man group has been very vocal. It could result in an upset for the orange lovers.

I think it is outrageous that Orange is resorting to these tactics! Does Orange have my eyes? Does Orange speak for the common man? Does Orange shake hands with babies?
I think not.

LO, something is not working right.
I tried voting a second, third, fourth and fifth time and I couldn't.
Can you fix this before Friday? Just PM me if you can.

I'm starting to think now that we have these colour schemes if it really matters. Can we have more colour schemes?
Green, purple and red?

But Mr. Blue is not dead yet.
Mr. Orange is a cop.
