White ON Black != False

by h20xyg3n • 21 Jul 2012, 13:30 • Journals
Not being funny but this white on black has seriously deteroriated my attendance to this website, it's a real eye sore and needs to be sorted out, either by an option i havent found yet or by doing the obvious and changing the greyscale slightly, i know it's like a grey-white but it's really so close to white and white on black really hurts my eyes.

+1, that's the only thing I don't like about that design. I think it shouldn't be too hard to change it : )

Right, I keep forgetting that a display's brightness and contrast is a permanently fixed value. Or you know, you were at the very least in possession of a display that doesn't over saturate as they really haven't been produced anymore within the last, oh I don't know, 10 or so years.

tl;dr Get a backlit display and quit whining.

Constructive, love it. Thank you for an actual response which formed a conclusion, didnt take much huh? So I take it you're 'for' all this white on black eyecancer?

No, I don't like it for there mere reason that it LOOKS horrible. It doesn't annoy me nor pains me to look at however.

So your long whine-attributed response was for your concern that it hurt my eyes? or just because you're an epic passive-aggressive?

Where the hell is the Chrome version? : (

the same script works for chrome as well, although as chrome seems to be incapable of reading the jQuery in the script, the back-to-top button doesn't work as intended on chrome and I just made a small fix to the script so it would work better on chrome

I read I need to put something like --enable-greasemonkey and put the file in C://Scripts/file.js

but it doesn't work with me, I'm on win7 x64 :)

On Firefox, you need to have Greasemonkey add-on installed and after that the add-on handles all the .user.js files.

On Chrome you can install the script without any add-ons.

The file should be located on your HD:

Chrome
C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\onehellofalongfoldername\versionnumber\script.js

Firefox
C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\yourprofilename\gm_scripts\Crossfire_4.0\138527.user.js

it doesn't want to work with my chrome: ( same specifics as mamouth

antman 22 Jul 2012, 10:31
that's weird, works fine on my chrome
do you have it listed and enabled on extensions:
Settings -> Extensions (if it's installed correctly, you should see Crossfire 4.0 there)

You can find help for installing user scripts on chrome:

Dunno what you are talking about.

I see light gray and dark gray...

If it hurts your eyes, fix your screen.. It's kinda okey now since they changed from white to gray

How?

Some people might have bad quality screen or they are not calibrated... it also depends on the position/angle your looking at screen (lcd/tft ones)

Play with your monitor buttons if needed.

"white on black does not equal false"

ok so, you like it? :s
▼
h20xyg3n 21 Jul 2012, 17:17
please tell me how you deduce from that, that i like it?
Parent
▼
Zodiac 21 Jul 2012, 17:28
because if x != false, then x == true.
Parent
▼
h20xyg3n 21 Jul 2012, 20:02
yes White ON Black == True but what has that got to do with me liking it or not? =/
Parent
▼
Zodiac 21 Jul 2012, 20:07
oh, thought you meant "false" as in "i dont like it", where "true" would be "i like it" :p nvm!
