Judith Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I am finding it impossible to read the posts on the forum for very long before my eyes give up - before I could browse for hours!!!The problem seems to be a combination of font size and choice of font, colour, background colour , size of table for the text.All I can say is the old version worked well, and I could read it easily and without strain. Now I can't so I don't stay long which is presumably is not what was intended! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolybanana Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Just out of interest, are the people using Apple etc having fewer problems than those using PCs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russethouse Posted March 24, 2012 Author Share Posted March 24, 2012 Font size wont adjust ! But the colours work [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judith Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I've just realised that the red print in the column which tells us all where we are from (/profile I suppose) is much clearer than the posts themselves. Something to do with the contrast, but also it is definitely a different font and size. Now using that size and font might be all it needs to improve the readability, along with a slightly less glaring background post colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montcigoux Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I am finding the fact that I have to scroll down quite a . distance to read the text of the post very tiring and irritating. The picture is too bright and distracting. The main thing that was wrong with the forum before was that you couldn't hover over the post and find out what it was about which you still can't - pity.

Russethouse Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Did you tick 'Enable Post Mouse-Over Popup ' in your settings ?I could see what the topics were about this way and I still can.Have you still got a gap between the title and the actual forum ? If so what system do you have and which browser ? That problem seems to have been fixed for most people......as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
