is there currently a way to change this from the white background? I'm struggling to read a lot of people names.

Not at the moment, Kellog. I'm concentrating on getting all the regular forum functions up and running and then looking at some skins. Can you let me know in which particular area you're having problems reading names?

Thanks

Dave

Yes - exactly!

Are we showing our age, MM?

I'd be quite happy to have a go at designing some buttons/icons if I had some of the main Hex codes for the colours in the skin...
I don't know if this will help:
HTML colour codes
I think this is just the web safe ones though...

You have to be careful with backgrounds in skins - especially where text resides, as so many people like to use different fonts, they don't always (ever?) check them in the skins they don't normally use, resulting in unreadable text for some (you'll note I forced the background colour on my user page for that very reason) So, whatever you do, please make sure the text backgrounds are relatively consistent please

Yours is hard as the green isn't a very strong contrast, I'm having the same problem with things like the last visited time colour.

Hope the work is going well

Jenny, remind me when all the upgrades are done and we'll have a chat about icons etc.

Oh... A design decision...

How about a FITA themed skin... White background and everything else in black, blue, red, yellow and purple...?
