Hi,
according to me, i did prefered previous colors. But we could discuss a lot about it...
But answer's subjects were not bold, just the main subject, this was more readable. Why did you change this ? Do users prefer all subjects bold ?
Regards.

I got the impression always the previous colors were better. I asked yesterday for a color scheme but didn't get an answer.

By error.

If you take a close look you will notice a serious problem. I work on that now with high priority.

I prefered blue. Maybe you could create some different HTML pages that i can host and i could make a poll.
I don't see this serious problem...

You mean the border line artefacts Volker? (:
Best,

P.S. I think the contrast between visited and not visited links
is too less now.

Yes, works best offline and with MSIE. Online Firefox does better. In addition the error prefer to occurs only on other pages than the mainpage .
...
I'll check that later.

These pages took me two days. The design is defined in a .css file. I don't see any sense in creating more HTML files.
We already had a poll here.
If you would like to see more detail make a copy of the mainpage and fiddle around with it. Have fun

Maybe the colours have been chosen already, and a poll has taken place etc ...
But I wasn't here ...
I don't mind cosmetic changes but, because I'm colour blind, I'm having a hard time distinguishing read/unread messages with the current settings. I can see the difference but it's too small (maybe luminance). I need to focus all the time.
If everybody else thinks they're fine, then just ignore this message.

This makes two of us, I even can't distinguish read from unread...

As posted before I first removed the bug. Now to the links:
Do you know anything about suggested color schemes for color blind people? I read a lot but didn't find anything.

Three...
As I wrote before: I'm working on it. A link to a site with suggested color schemes would be nice. But feel free to add 4, 5, 6, 7... to the list above.

The previous colour set was excellent. You could ajust only details, like border lines etc. Any other set with white as background colour is a bad option.

Therefore I choose grey.

But it is still white, because white is so dominant in this kind of grey.
