icanthearyou 4,465 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 A warm welcome to the AE folks, but can you please revert back to black or even blue text?? Did y'all have a dark background or something? It is completely illegible on here, so I politely ask to NOT use the yellow. Thank you and.... WAR EAGLE!!!! Yes...a blue background. Yellow font was the secret handshake for sarcasm...we picked yellow because it matched BigBird! I miss the Bird and Golf show. No Bird, No Golf, no FUN. Oh that is so sweet thank you so much 'icanthearyou' :-\ You're not a senile old grouch. You're just a sentimental old softy. I'm both numnuts We love you, golf! We Now that's an intelligent post britt Glad you spied that, golf! yep that almost went under my head.... Oh God, I think Britt is gonna be the new Bird. really now??? I heard the Bird and Golf Show is becoming the Britt and Golf Hour. How come you always get second billing Golf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktv3 0 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I feel like I'm trying to read while sitting on the sun. This white gives me a headache, I actually had to dampen down my bright/contrast settings just so I could read for more than a second or two, and it's still not good. This has to be the whitest white known to man. Any updates on the blue background? I don't mean to complain but I often come on here with a hangover - and the brightness of this board is hard on the eyes. I'm glad other options are in the works for us AE'ers. ^^^^^this.

Mikey 16,779 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 It's just this: The idea of posting is to share ideas with the other folks on the board. Most will, like me, simply ignore something that's hard to read. The yellow text is hard to read. So, if you simply love to type and don't want anybody to read it, use the yellow text. If you'd like to share thoughts, be courteous and use something that people can easily see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWShewmake 78 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 For those of you frustrated with the yellow text, just highlight the text with your mouse and it will turn blue and much easier to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUld fAUx@ 2,584 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Secret decoder ring required: http://sithpenguin.hubpages.com/hub/How-To-Detect-Sarcasm “If you think the person you are talking to is being sarcastic, you have the option to either blush and stop talking, change the subject, laugh at the sarcastic remark, express your thoughts on how the sarcasm affects your feelings (note: you should probably prepare yourself for more sarcasm with this option), or find someone else to talk to.” or (on our forum, call out he poster as a bammer?) Be polite It'll all work out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUld fAUx@ 2,584 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Just one more - My father was a master of subtle sarcasm. No wink/wink, etc. Found it a useful gage of his audience (who noticed? who didn't?). I've also had professors slip jokes past me that I didn't even catch 'til I was reviewing my class notes later on. It is survivable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aesebu55 0 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I feel like I'm trying to read while sitting on the sun. This white gives me a headache, I actually had to dampen down my bright/contrast settings just so I could read for more than a second or two, and it's still not good. This has to be the whitest white known to man. Any updates on the blue background? I love the yellow font because all I have to do is highlight it if I want to read it! If I want to ignore the person boom I don't highlight it. I did think we shoud move to white as the sarcfont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
