Haha Joined: Oct 12, 2000 # Posts: 66	Posted: 08/12/2005 01:57 pm I thought I'd finally found the perfect pale background colors for some of my page elements, but I recently moved to a new monitor which renders these colors as virtually invisible. I'm trying to figure out if this is a monitor problem or a color problem. To view the pages in question, go to the URL in my profile and then choose a page from one of the topic areas in the directory. The section with "On This Page", "In This Category", etc should have a pale tan background. The subsection headers on the page, such as "General/Mixed/Misc", should have a pale rose colored background. Thanks in advance for your help! (Copy Shortcut)

There are too many people with the brightness wound right up and the contrast not set right. Try a range of screens to see that it is OK, but don't worry about trying to cater the same for everybody.
