I'm experimenting with a new color scheme. I'm absolutely horrendous at this sort of thing, so let me know if you like it or hate it.

I like it just fine, but I'm probably the least visually-artistic person on earth, so don't count my opinion for much.

You could have stopped before "but I'm probably the least visually-artistic person on earth" and I would have been much more reassured, you know :)

the colors look fine but certain links are showing up in a hard to read way. i'm not sure if that's due to something you picked, however.

and i am not the least visually-artistic person on earth. why just this morning ayana noticed that i had picked my belt to match the buttons on my blazer. (and laughed at me for being a femme--i ask you--is that nice? she's a big meanie.)

Which links are hard to read? Is it the dark blue on light blue for the links to Comments?
And what kind of machine/browser are you using?

(Sorry for all the questions, my long-dormant inner designer is having a busy day)

i'm seeing dark blue links on a deep deep purple background for things like changing views--but i had to highlight them to get them to show up as readable. i don't think that i did anything to adjust what i see when i look at people's pages.

i'm using netscape 4.7 on a Dell Optiplex, it says (it's old, if that helps) under Windows NT. I can look from home but i think that machine is older and it's the same version of netscape, i think.

to follow up to myself (bad usenet etiquette--no biscuit!), i just now discovered that your messages have subject headers, so that's another thing that isn't showing up--i wish i felt secure that i'm seeing what others are seeing.

You're definitely not seeing what everyone else is seeing. Subject headers are white text on a purple background. Even with a 256-color monitor you should at least see a dark background and white text.

The culprit is Netscape 4.7. LiveJournal does the formatting with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Netscape 4.7 has atrocious CSS support, as does Internet Explorer 4. The current versions of Netscape and IE do a much better job with CSS.

now i'm feeling deeply insecure about my own color scheme. but i picked a pre-programmed one so hopefully it's legible.

if ayana weren't sick with a sinus headache, i would see if she has a different version of netscape on one of her computers. maybe tomorrow?
