Yellow Peril

Yellow Peril [ #128265 ] Sunday February 05, @01:41PM How do you think about the new style sheet of the Technocrat. net? http://technocrat.net/d/2006/2/2/164/ The colour yellow or rather shocking yellow hurts my eyes, my retina. I usually spend many hours in reading articles and writing comments in Technocrat.net, but just it is unbearable of my retina to keep on staying in the site more than at a glance, unless I kept away from it, I am liable to be suffered from flashlight of yellow colour when I try to sleep, that makes me hard to sleep. No more yellow peril.

It hurts me definitely, so I quit visitin the site any more. Or probably to wear Rayban is a good idea. But I can't do it in someone's presence, people will ask what I am doing. I will probably reply that because the colour hurts me. People will reply whether I have another alternatives like reading a book. I would reply 'no, no I like zogger and zogger's articles, I have nothing for it but to wear the sun glasse to read his articles'. People will say go ahead, and I will do. Seriously I intend to buy a Rayban to read his articles.

My CSS is rusty , but I could give a go at a new style for it , if the html is properly documented /and or the current CSS easy to modify .

They told us at the beginning of new.Technocrat.net. So it would be hard for them to know how the colour they used affects the rest of them. They have already declared they would make other options available, probably we will see another version or we can choose other templates. So I will wait and see for sometime. It's been one of my most favourite things to visit their site, and I don't want them to rob my pleasure of me. To wear sunglasses is not a bad idea.
