Does anyone else find the ‘pink’ colour of the text in the view pane uncomfortable to the eyes?

I do.
Do you think if I ask nicely they could change the colour to one that’s a bit easier on the eyes, yet contrasts nicely on the black background?

Or, maybe it’s just me…

I just don’t like pink. I solved the problem by stick black electrician tape over the offending words.

did you know that if you turn off forum styles, you don’t have a problem with the colours?

It’s pink for me :(

I wasn’t even a girly baby with pink accessories. My teddy bear was blue (I still have his arm) and my first bed (my dad made it) was pale blue.

Yes, I find pink text on black background difficult to look at, specially for extended periods.
You’ve made a sound choice with your PP presentations!
Actually, I think certain shades of red are even worse on black background than pink is.
I found a website recently which was mostly red on black…..gawd it was ‘orrible

because I can’t throw it away. When I touch it I can see the rest of him. One day I might find a toy repair place that can fix him.

if they can extract some dna from that arm they’ll be able to clone him. of course some of your dna, from slobber, might be mixed with it and you’ll end up with a monster.
