greyscale macrumors is hurting my eyes

[TBRO]

Excellent! Thats all I can say!

 

[bhsu21]

the grey was hurting my eyes too. Glad someone pointed out how to change it back or else I would have stayed away from here until Apr 2.

Im on a school computer so I thought the screen was messed up, but then I noticed the logo at the top with colours on it... Got me at first, though

Good job!

Second day with my Air here .. still getting used to the glossy screen. Woke up, refreshed MacRumors in my browser and thought "yeah, I really hate glossy -- look how lame these colors look".

 

[wordmunger]

Wow, that's a lot of work! Even the avatars!

 

[hexonxonx]

I switched back to the old colors, the new grey is too grey!

 

[iMpathetic]

So, there's supposed to be "other things" of April Fool's funniness around the site, has anybody found anything?

 

[tominated]

I don't know, I'm getting a headache from the grey scale. May have to stay away today.

AHHHH The Greys!! The Goggles They Do NOTHING!

 

[Hello.there]

I was about to ring Applecare and complain LOUDLY that my iMac had gone funny.

Look! Even the embarrassed face is grey!

I like it too, especially the rainbow logo!

Signatures still show the colours. Is that deliberate, or too hard to change? I haven't a clue how it's done anyway..

Do colours still work in messages?

edit: yes, they do!

Yeah, text colours obviously still work, as do colurs on ribbons.

I'm loving the coloured classic Apple/Macrumors logo.

 

[atari1356]

I'm liking the grey

I'm amazed that the avatars are greyscale too... must have been a BIG batch convert in Photoshop or Graphic Converter?

 

[lil' brudder]

yeah, I'm on a crappy old CRT monitor connected to a mini at my school... kinda threw me off..

Ah, but you probably won't have noticed that they stay grey even if you change them...

I did (because I just had to try)

 

[SpookTheHamster]

This is great, please make it an option!

I love the April Fools on MR, they're never anything too stupid.

Next year; green text on black.

 

[andiwm2003]

wtf.. i just called comcast and complained that something is wrong with my internet. it's b&w now. they'll send a technician on friday between 12 and 2pm.

of course i'm gonna cancel that tomorrow. but it would be great if others call as well and complain to comcast.

i hate comcast.

and smilies in b&w look just boring.....

 

[Melrose]

It doesn't hurt my eyes but it's hard to make sense of which threads are which... I could get used to it I guess but hope I won't have to. Stylechanger here I come!

 

[squeeks]

but the Quick Style Chooser in the bottom-left corner may be of interest to you.

you mean the one that only has this style available?

 

[iBlue]

you mean the one that only has this style available?

huh?

This is great, I feel like I'm browsing MacRumors on my brother's old Mac SE/30! Man that was a good machine... good times indeed...
