Gratuitous Color Change

[azurelunatic]

I changed my journal's color scheme!

Old color scheme:

New color scheme:

I think I like the new one a lot better. If anyone has suggestions for tweaks, please do let me know.

I definitely like the dark text on light background much better.

However, right now the unvisited-link texts of the sidebar and the comment prompts are (on my display) very difficult to read. The background blue and the foreground blue are different enough to create an effect of texture, but do not provide enough contrast to permit reading the text.

Mine as well. I need to tweak that.

[azurelunatic]

Tweaked.

Definitely better. I was about to think that perhaps even a little more contrast could be thinkable, but... Right now the sidebar is quite readable, but it doesn't leap to the eye. The attention is quite properly drawn to the body text.

Me like.

And I want to keep the contrast between the component background and the body.

I love the soft purply violet/blue - my journal has a very similar color. It makes me happy every day. So, I like it this way!

[azurelunatic]

Whee, shiny.

I like the new colors. They seem a lot less dark. They make me smile.

This color scheme is more midnight with moonlight than just straight midnight.

I like it MUCH better this way. So much easier to read the comments on your posts now.

[azurelunatic]

Good.

MUCCCHHHHH nicer, lots easier to read.

[azurelunatic]

Much better. ^_^ Good contrast is my friend.

It was made necessary by me actually being awake in daylight hours. Night makes white-on-black easier to read; daytime, it's got to be black on white.

[amberfox.livejournal.com]

I wonder if that's why I have my LJ in white-on-black? I normally can't stand that combination, but I find it easier for this one purpose.

[azurelunatic]

*ponders* Perhaps.

funny. you use petridish?

that was started by an acquiantance in ny. i kinda started to get out of it then quickly fell out due to drama with a then business partner ex-roommate of his...

anyway, small world.

[azurelunatic]

Indeed. pyrogenic pointed me there a while ago...
