I may need glasses.. but....

For the love of god.....Please change the black font in the headers to white! I cant read the text on the dark blue background without highlighting it or getting right up on my screen ( and its a 28 inch screen !)

I know I keep complaining about that too lol

I keep trying to fix it but I can't find it... may just change the blue ...

But I love the blue, anyway under the display/colours there should be a headers text option?

Or you could try using the CSS stylesheet to change it?

Problem is that if I edit the topic titles stuff... it changes in the bar at the right hand side as well... so it really is the bkue that is too dark :/

The colour scheme isn't too bad, even if I'm not exactly a fan of the pinky-grey background behind everything (which makes the forum feel a little ancient... this is what the internet used to look like back in 1999), but the font is driving me a little nuts.

WHY Comic Sans?!

I’m Comic Sans, Asshole.

Listen up. I know the shit you’ve been saying behind my back. You think I’m stupid. You think I’m immature. You think I’m a malformed, pathetic excuse for a font. Well think again, nerdhole, because I’m Comic Sans, and I’m the best thing to happen to typography since Johannes fucking Gutenberg.

You don’t like that your coworker used me on that note about stealing her yogurt from the break room fridge? You don’t like that I’m all over your sister-in-law’s blog? You don’t like that I’m on the sign for that new Thai place? You think I’m pedestrian and tacky? Guess the Fudge what, Picasso. We don’t all have seventy-three weights of stick-up-my-ass Helvetica sitting on our seventeen-inch MacBook Pros. Sorry the entire world can’t all be done in stark Eurotrash Swiss type. Sorry some people like to have fun. Sorry I’m standing in the way of your minimalist Bauhaus-esque fascist snoozefest. Maybe sometime you should take off your black turtleneck, stop compulsively adjusting your Tumblr theme, and lighten the Fudge up for once.

People love me. Why? Because I’m fun. I’m the life of the party. I bring levity to any situation. Need to soften the blow of a harsh message about restroom etiquette? SLAM. There I am. Need to spice up the directions to your graduation party? WHAM. There again. Need to convey your fun-loving, approachable nature on your business’ website? SMACK. Like daffodils in motherfucking spring.

When people need to kick back, have fun, and party, I will be there, unlike your pathetic fonts. While Gotham is at the science fair, I’m banging the prom queen behind the woodshop. While Avenir is practicing the clarinet, I’m shredding “Reign In Blood” on my double-necked Stratocaster. While Univers is refilling his allergy prescriptions, I’m racing my tricked-out, nitrous-laden Honda Civic against Tokyo gangsters who’ll kill me if I don’t cross the finish line first. I am a sans serif Superman and my only kryptonite is pretentious buzzkills like you.

It doesn’t even matter what you think. You know why, jagoff? Cause I’m famous. I am on every major operating system since Microsoft fucking Bob. I’m in your signs. I’m in your browsers. I’m in your instant messengers. I’m not just a font. I am a force of motherfucking nature and I will not rest until every uptight armchair typographer cock-hat like you is surrounded by my lovable, comic-book inspired, sans-serif badassery.

Enough of this bullshit. I’m gonna go get hammered with Papyrus.

Yeah, who dared make the font Comic Sans...

God I hate that font. I don't care how good its guitar-playing, hotty-banging, life-of-the-party credentials are because I think that it's hard to read. There's a reason why editors will throw your manuscript in the bin if you've used this horrible font, because guess what? It gives them headache!

hotty-banging? lol

Yeah, some guy started beating me up when I was little for using this font...

What's wrong with Comic Sans?

And it wasEskallon who made the forum in this colour, not me

No, I love the forum colour, just the font may need changing.

Sorry if my personal feelings for that, ugh... typeface... are a bit strong, but I also think that it makes the forum look a bit amateurish. You guys have made some nice buttons, scrolling banners and backgrounds, and I think the font detracts from all that.

Well then... suggest another one instead of just saying I made a bad choice

My preference would be either Arabic Typesetting or Calibri:



Though obviously not in those sizes ofc

I agree with Lac, Calibri would be a good font.

Does this mean that I'm not the only font Nazi on Flux?

I'll change it to Calibri then...

Tom, Mac users dont have Calibra font so we are using 'casual' which is similar to comic sans. I will post some mac options later so you can choose to add that to the 5.
