Change the Visited / Non Visited link colors...

[email protected] · November 22, 2000, 04:59 PM

Right now they are backwards of how they used to be - so I'm thinking I'm reading a new thread, when I've already read it. Any chance of you changing this back to how it used to be?

That 180 degree change is *still* fouling me up. 17 months of UBB makes it a hard habit to break in just a few days.

Of course, I could just be a slow learner.

I just thought of a good reason to change it back to the way it was. (Unread links blue / Read links black)

The way it was before, I could spot a hyperlink within a post easily by its color. Now it appears black, just like all the other text. This, coupled with the new underline feature make it very difficult to differentiate underlined text from a link.

This might be a link.

This might be a link.

How can you easily tell?

Besides the fact that on most web pages the unvisited link shows up as a brighter color (usually blue) and the visited link shows up as a subdued color. Most people would probably be used to it being that way. The way the board is set up now is probably kind of confusing to people. Pretend we are all from Palm Beach County (No offense intended, Rich).
