|
Hi,
I'm new here and I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this. If it is, please move it to the appropriate place.
After I had subscribed to trinity, I wanted to fill out a part of "my info" I couldn't read most of it because of the blueness, for a lack of a better description. You can see it in the link I have provided.
Is this normal for this page? The other's didn't look like this. Thanks.

Buddy,
That is definitely NOT what that screen should look like.
It looks like your browser is having some problems.
Try setting a different THEME. Some of the non-default THEMEs can have some display problems. Give that a try and let us know your results.

Hi LemonAid,
A different theme? I'm using the latest version of Camino without any addons or third party plugins. I also tried it with Firefox and Safari. Both show the same thing.
I'm pretty much a newb and this is the first time I've seen this. Any ideas? |

It's a trinity "issue", so -> Fuzkd Servers
Actually, though, that's what that page has looked like for me in multiple browsers for my entire time here (and that's in the default theme (color scheme) for trinity, which is the only one really "supported").
Perhaps the text color should be cyan to match the "cyan-on-navy" in the sidebar headers?

Thanks Smokey, I got ... confused
When I go to Trinity -> Your Account -> Your Information, I get a much lighter Blue bar - about 1/3 of the width of my Browser Window, and the Black Text is still readable.
The Blue is Cyan, I think. But the Text is kinda Bold and fuzzy. It's much more readable than the image provided.
I'm using SeaMonkey 1.0.5 (Firefox 1.5.0.7 code base).
Wonder what the problem is??

sardisson,
How did you get around it? By zooming in on the words? That's what I"m planning to do. Thanks. |

Now I know what you meant by THEME. I changed it and it looks better. Should've tried that before using zoom, kinda hard on my eyes. Thanks. |

Glad we could help, and Sorry that I was not clearer on "changing the Themes" of your Account on the Trinity Forums.
It was last and I was ... tired?

No problem. I tend to ask about something only to find the solution a minute or two later by myself, most of the time anyway. Thanks. |

I guess my eyes were good enough to be able to discern things back then
This bookmarklet will zap the colors and make it black text on white bg. (Drag the "zap colors" box to your bookmarks bar, then click that bookmarklet once on the "Your Info" page.)

Gee, you learn something everyday. I never knew I could change the theme.
However, I noticed that when I change the theme to deep blue, it gives me a wide, dark blue border on the right side of the forum, instead of going to the edge. I don't think I like that. |

And learned that most of them are not ... fully operational? Ed has fully checked the default "Theme" but some of the others have funny colors, or display a broken "Search" box at the top of the page (like the one I use - Odyssey).
The more you play, the more ... strange things you "might" see. YMMV.

Well, at the moment, I changed my theme to Odyssey (IIRC) - definitely a sightly different look, nothing broken, so far. |
