"There are not over a hundred people in the United States who hate the Catholic Church. There are millions, however, who hate what they wrongly believe to be the Catholic Church, which is, of course, quite a different thing." -Bishop Fulton J. Sheen
Placating terrorists, meeting with dictators, compassion for murderers... but no humanity for the unborn... incredible.

A suggestion made with the best of intentions Since I'm brand new here, I'm reluctant to offer suggestions for fear of sounding critical right out of the chute, but can we discuss the color scheme?
When I first saw the board I was impressed with the black background and yellow/red text. It looks quite stylish and chic, but after reading a few posts, I find that my retinas are all but burned out. While scanning over the previous posts, I find myself skipping over a lot of some of the longer ones, but only becasue of the light show. I would hate to miss out on some of the more important points of the discussion.
It's just a suggestion, and again not out of any impious criticism, but I was thinking maybe a parchment-colored background with dark brown text. Only because it would be easier on my eyes.
Re: A suggestion made with the best of intentions Hi HT,
Thanks for your suggestion. This is exactly what this part of the forum is for. Suggestions and ideas, so please do not fear speaking your mind my friend.
When you say parchment colored background, which specific colors did you have in mind?

Re: A suggestion made with the best of intentions Wow! Ask and ye shall receive!
Thank you for taking my suggestion without offense. There are so many posts I'm going to go back and read through now.
When I suggested "parchment" I was thinking of a sort of light beige background with medium to dark brown font. I've seen web sites with that layout before, and it makes it so much easier on the eyes.
Again, thank you for not taking offense at my suggestion.
Re: A suggestion made with the best of intentions Tony - I love the color change. My eyes are light sensitive and the new colors are good for me. - Nord
Re: A suggestion made with the best of intentions Tony,
The black text - links I think - against the dark cloud background barely show up. Maybe if the text were lightened up a bit. Even this text against the red is not easy to read.
Tony,

Michael, I inversed the colors of the cloud background. That should take care of the links showing up in the main forum. How does the text look now when reading posts?
