Thats alot of feedback. I personally dont have any trouble reading the links, maybe it looks different on different settings, I donno. Anyway, I think this is something we should address. Its fairly easy to change, we just need to find out what makes it so hard to see for some people. Perhape adding a blue touch to the layout... I donno. Lets just consiter something.

I still can't figure out whats wrong though, it looks great on my comp...

Yah, like I said, it looks good for me too. Maybe we both have 20/20 vision and the rest of the world needs glasses or something like that... Anyway, lets just keep it like it is for now, and maybe consitering upping the font size a notch.

I just tried something that would help, and It doesn't look that bad. Go to www.wciii.com/display_new.php and look at the sidebar. I upped the font size from size 9 to size 10. Its alot ezer to see. Should we consiter switching over to that???

EDIT: On the same page, I also made the fonts slightly lighter colors, and I think it looks alot more clear. Possibly, now that the font is lighter (not too much, still in proportion to what it used to be), we could have it at 9 point...

Yep, Ill make some changes to the display.php right now

Well, since the ONLY complain I ever get is that the site is too dark (becides one moron on that post of Skuzzy's who thinks the shoutbox is in the wrong place, whatever, I like it where it is), I just made some small changes, which are up now. Its alot lighter now, but it just doesn't look perfect. I just really felt like I wanted to fix this one issue though, even though I personally liked it the old way a bit better (It really wasn't ALL that dark...). But anyway, I wanted to do something about it. So I did. Now that its out of the way, lets just work on getting all that content up, then lets worry about the details.

wtf

Wow, that's rediculous, I can see everything perfectly, and I don't have 20-20 vision.
I see it perfectly when my screen res is at 1024, as well as 800. It's perfect on 32 bit and 16 bit. I know it's late to post this, but the only thing we should do is do what's already been done - to say what the reqs. are.

Those people probably have older computers... I'm going to check out the websites on other computers and see what's up...frankly I don't think any of us know what these people are complaining about - something's obviously different with their computers than ours.
