Firefox user here and no problems to report.

Is color blindness something that you have experienced cwchute? Just a thought. I had a friend that had problems with some combinations of backgrounds and text colors.

Also, if text size is an issue, you can hold down the control key and use your scroll button on the mouse to scale text size up and down in the browser.

Hi Ballbarian,

No, other than needing cheaters to read, the peepers are OK. Like I said, it's only this forums and one or two others that I/Firefox have this issue with. The rest of the forums I frequent don't give me a problem.



Well, this image is easier to read than the real thing! LOL. It does not show the pale green shadow around each letter that reduces the contrast between the text and the backround.... It's just weird.

Could be your video driver, or possibly something with your eyes. Doesn't need to be full color blindness, some partial varieties or other quirks in color perception can screw your vision right royally in some circumstances.

Totally wild guess here: do your reading glasses have tinted lenses?

What's your monitor setting at? Try using a lower resolution on your setting and see if that helps.

I'm initially inclined to suggest your monitor needs degaussing, but it could just be a trick your eyes are playing on your with the color combinations on this site.
