The new colors make the text difficult to read. frown

I think the problem is that there's not enough contrast between the text color and the background color.

We're still in the process of tweaking the colors and will hopefully find a better solution soon. smile

I wonder.. the people who find the black text on light blue bg difficult to read.. do you have your gamma/brightness up? or is it way down? (monitor)
I mean, I can read everything perfectly..

I must keep the brightness turned up as well - I can read everything easily. tho the hover color still needs some work.

I keep my monitor in designer mode at all times. smile That is to say, contrast at 100%, and brightness around 50-60%. If you have Photoshop, use the color calibration that came with it because it does make a nice difference.

I always thought that doing that is a monitor killer?!

I doubt many other users set their contrast that high. Shouldn't one be designing for the masses?

Monitors are made to be used. Use them.
