sparklyballs Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Can't read anything at the bottom of the page at all. murky grey on black , i can see there are words there, but they might as well be heiroglyphics when it comes to deciphering the strange symbols. Quote Link to comment
nexusmaniac Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I love the new look It's perfect! Really easy on the eyes... Better than white screaming at me! Guess the clear middle ground is a selection between white and grey... But I think grey looks pretty damn good 😎 Quote Link to comment

On my monitor there is a very sharp white/dark contrast between text and background. Everything is well readable. Perhaps adjusting your monitor settings helps? I am having no problem reading the web site. What someone posted above about dark grey in posts, I am able to read as well. Quote Link to comment
rctneil Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Really loving the new look. I was getting a bit worried about the future of Unraid recently as I didn't see much progress but this has relieved me of all my fears. Can't wait for 6.6! Quote Link to comment

ElectricBadger Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Looks good, though I'm not a great fan of the Nudista font. I'm finding the font size a little large, TBH. I have Stylus installed, but it's quite a fiddle to knock the sizes down in every style where it's been set. Using the browser zoom out obviously reduces the size of images as well. Is there any chance of a "reduce text size" preference at some point in the future? Quote Link to comment
Koshy Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Please add a light theme to the forums. Quote Link to comment

That depends on mood, time of day and ambient light conditions. A reason why most sites offers at least one light and one dark theme. This updated forum needs a light theme - it isn't nice to have half of one monitor pitch black and the other screen estate using white background. That gives a rather big clash. Quote Link to comment
GHunter Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Love the new site! I also prefer the lighter background with dark text for the forums as it is much easier to read. Also, the "Bug Reports" forum returns a 404 error. https://unraid.net/bug-reports Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I still can't download attachments. I was trying to download a Diagnostics file to see if I might be able to help with a problem in this thread: I then looked for an found another thread with a Downloadable file and still got the problem. Here is a link to the error message page: https://lime-technology.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=44984 Quote Link to comment
The_Mountain Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I am loving the new black theme. Quote Link to comment
FineWolf Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) The new website design is nice, however there are few places where QA was skimped... For one, the <head> tag is opened and closed twice, there's a bunch of <a> tags with a target attribute with no value but an assignment character (which is invalid markup). Also, the Users Testimonials sections of the product pages is broken on Firefox. The headers shows up behind the text. Edited August 29, 2018 by FineWolf Quote Link to comment

I'm seeing that too. 2 hours ago, pwm said: That depends on mood, time of day and ambient light conditions. A reason why most sites offers at least one light and one dark theme. This updated forum needs a light theme - it isn't nice to have half of one monitor pitch black and the other screen estate using white background. That gives a rather big clash. I've turned up the backlight of my monitor to better see this site and now white-themed pages are too bright. I wonder if the users who are gushing with praise have their backlights set to the factory default 100%. The font is truly awful. The glyphs have a large x-height but have thin strokes and very little space between them, made worse by excessive kerning in words such as AWAY. I know that serif fonts are unfashionable at the moment but they are so much more legible. But don't mind me, I'm a dinosaur. I think one part of the problem is that people now browse on a wide variety of devices with a wide range of resolutions, and with the number of pixels per millimetre (or, since we're talking about text, I should say per em) varying widely. What suits one may not work so well on another. I grabbed a small section of my display to illustrate what I mean. The two 'i's and 'l's in millimetre are really quite blurry: I'll shut up now - apologies for raining on your parade, @jonp. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Looks like old attachments didn't make it over for some reason, but I was able to download a new attachment OK. P.S. I would prefer black-on-white too. Can you give us some choice? Quote Link to comment
ken-ji Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I guess the dark theme non-sense is here to stay. But we definitely could use a light theme still. My eyes hurt more staring into bright symbols over a dark background, than staring into a dark symbols over light background. Must be all the books and e-ink displays I stare into a lot talking Quote Link to comment

bonienl Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I was very much used to green on black during those days... Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 My pref was always Orange. Found it the easiest in the monochrome days. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Just noticed another thing about the new theme. Bold is practically indistinguishable from unbold. Quote Link to comment
bonienl Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 There are different "levels" of boldness. See https://typekit.com/fonts/nudista Quote Link to comment
