Like using those pretty colors? Guess what?
Did you know that roughly 10% of the population suffers from color blindness in some form? I personally have the red-green problem which is most common. This also pertains to shades or variances of those colors, like pink and the like.
Keep in mind that what a person like me sees when you post in red or green is a big blotch of silver or just a big blur! No words, no colors! So, probably 10% of the people on this forum will not see your posts if you use red or green. Some will not see any colors at all! -Rich |

Rich how did Hanks Green and Red emoticons at the very end of each of the first two line look to you?
I go through this with the software developers that I work with and encourage them to keep/use the link to the color blind color wheel to consult when adding colour highlights to their software interfaces. |

Terri many people come to just check in Big Guy has been around a long time maybe he got tired of rudeness and quit logging in Or maybe he took a vow of silence did you notice he said 10% of the population can't read it. I will be using a different means to highlight text.

Maybe you need to stick to things you know instead of trying to think for others and think about what they may or may not be of anything. Maybe you need to get a job like this. |

seriously dude did you see the that indicates I was speculating maybe the code doesn't display for you. I'm just saying consideration of others isn't warranted by how often they post we don't know why they don't post or that they aren't reading. Not sure how I offended you I was defending his suggestion is all. So any way back to the scooters Good day sir
