Upgrade Issues

[tallbm]

Great work so far on the upgrade folks!

Let me know when requests/enhancements times comes. I would like to make a recommendation for small CSS change in some areas where there is red text on brown/dark background colors. It can make the eyes do this

Other than that I'm poking around and learning all the new, different, and cool stuff that is out here and enjoying things

We'll certainly let you know. I think there's a bit of a push to have a dark theme so perhaps your request could be incorporated while we're making a dark theme.

If you have a Dark Background with White Text, what happens when I go to copy a page or two on paper??? White Text on White Paper doesn't show up too good these days.

Bear, the current style you're on is something you can stay on or if you decide dark mode is for you, it's optional. We're not forcing anyone to use any style they don't like so they have two choices: light or dark. I hope you'll pick the one that you like better!

Thanks Steph!!
However I'm still wondering what happens if you try to print a page that has a Black Background with white text on white paper?

A White Sheet of invisible text???

I'm serious---I actually don't know.

Good question, and truthfully, I don't know yet. I'm transitioning to be paperless next year so I won't be able to test this theory out. Can you give me an example of what you'd try to print?

Also, you can switch in between themes at any time with a single button. So if it's an issue, you're not stuck with either theme.

Well Let's say I want to print a recipe that is White Text on a Black Background.
A non-computer brain (Like Mine) would say it would print white text on white paper.
In other words Nothing readable.

But if I could push one button to change it to Black Text on white background, I could just do that.

I know I have copied and pasted from Black backgrounds, and The text was missing on the page, until I change my Text color on my 'Puter.

Color formats are hard to see...red on brown is not easy to read.

In the mobile version it would be nice to reduce the size of the header banner if possible as it takes up a lot of real estate on phone. Pics in carousel looked zoomed in very large on both phone and net (win 10 / chrome) . Love to have an option for a dimmer back ground. For some reason the new format in general gives me a headache and messes with my motion sickness. Hard to explain but I spend a lot of time on here usually and now just a few minutes and I am quesy. Maybe I am just odd :)

Not working with my iPad. The right column over takes the left column Makes it almost unusable everthing is scrambled And unreadable.

We'll get right on that. Thanks for reporting this!

Absolutely! We're going to figure out the right balance for a dark theme to see if it's good for users. Please give us a bit while we work through making it and testing it. Thanks!

The Vertical poem like posts are obnoxious as anything. And there is no reason for it when the whole right side of the screen is wide open blank white screen.

Can you send a screenshot of what you're seeing? It shouldn't be that much space and if there is, we're aware of a bug on iPad at this time. Are you on a desktop? If so, what browser and operating system?

I notice that where we are from no longer shows will this be replaced??

Click on the user's avatar. That should bring up the member's stats and location if they have included it.

That's just another step it use to show we didn't have to look for it.
