Software updates

[testerdahl]

Hey everyone, doing some software updates on the forum. We are moving up to the latest technology. I'm hoping this will increase page load times, allow us to upload pictures faster and it enables a variety of reactions to posts like smily faces and LOLs.

I'm also going to work on reducing some of the Ads.

I'm also making dark mode standard. You should be able to select which style you want either a dark or light mode.

I'm still playing with colors for the dark mode. Please share if you have thoughts or if something is hard to read. Dark mode is my preferred background since I find it easier on my eyes.

Can you make the font one size larger for easier reading?

Sure.

lol...now you're just showing my age damn it.

The font sizes on the back end are determined by pixels. So, like 16px. I increased all the fonts sizes for both the light and dark mode by 1 px. I don't think that does a whole heck of a lot. Take a look and let me know.

Don't feel bad Dusdaddy, I gave away a book on pickups because it had Bible size font.

The notifications tab got really hard to read when you highlight over a notification on desktop. The contrast gets all wonky. I attached a picture to show the difference.

Also, if you try to switch to light mode, most of the text disappears LOL. This is what you see when you switch to light mode:

I'm getting white font in my comment box. Maybe it was changed.

I can’t see the text anymore. Even typing this response I can’t see it. What the heck is going on?

Sorry I didn't respond to this and I'm glad you emailed me. This is fixed.

It is strange. My iPad looks amazing and doesn't do it.

I changed the background to gray. That should help.

 

[Saddle Tramp]

The gray helps a lot.

It did help, thank you very much. Light mode works now!

Something changed recently after this it seems and I can't see a lot of the text anymore.


This is completely washing out signatures, dates and other info.

One of the reasons I switched to light mode.
