GrayTheCat March 5, 2019 Share March 5, 2019 It's harder to read for me, but i can read it just fine. The trade off for reading it as a quote is readability on the dark theme, unfortunately. I can keep experimenting, but I'm fine with this for now. Meow. You may see my headmates call me Gray or sometimes Cat. I used to speak in pink and Ranger used to speak in blue (if it's unmarked and colored assume it's Ranger). She loves to chat.

Luminesce March 5, 2019 Share March 5, 2019 I will never comprehend people who prefer Light themes over Dark themes. Hi! I'm Lumi, host of Reisen, Tewi, Flandre and Lucilyn. Everyone deserves to love and be loved. It's human nature. My tulpas and I have a Q&A thread, which was the first (and largest) of its kind. Feel free to ask us stuff.

Ranger March 5, 2019 Share March 5, 2019 I made a realization- Cat only started complaining about her text color when she was in a brightly lit room (and ofc her screen is super dim in comparison) Be careful when doing these light tests! Cat's going to switch back to her normal color. I'm Ranger, GrayTheCat's tulpa, and I love hippos! I also like cake and chatting about stuff. I go by Rosalin or Ronan sometimes.

GrayTheCat March 5, 2019 Share March 5, 2019 It's time to test the color yellow. Yellow Testing: [hidden] Dark: Spark (not legible in the editor) more blue Spark (just makes the color lighter) Spark, but now legible (eeee00) Spark, but now legible and more faded Spark, but now legible and more faded and more blue Similar to eeee00, but the ee's are now e0's Quote: Spark (not legible) more blue Spark (just makes the color lighter) Spark, but now legible (eeee00) Spark, but now legible and more faded Spark, but now legible and more faded and more blue Similar to eeee00, but the ee's are now e0's Mobile: [/hidden] I think dddd00 looks the best, but this can be further tweaked if you want something brighter.

Ranger August 24, 2019 Share August 24, 2019 I'm back to bump this thread because jean-luc stopped linking it in his signature and that makes me sad and I'm going to try to give my ststemmate Moltosha dark colored text that's not impossible to read. If he had the choice, #000000 would be his pick, but black text is hard to read. Before he settled with the default text, but on dark theme his name appears white and he's not a fan of it. Moltosha was willing to compromise if a little bit of blue was mixed in, so I wanted to do some testing here to find out which color is both the darkest but still readable. [hidden] Why pure black is bad 000033 is close to Molotosha's blue limit 000044 is too blue 110033 I mixed in some red 330033 Dark dark purple 330000 Just black with some red 222222 Lighter gray 220022 Even darker purple Why pure black is bad 000033 is close to Molotosha's blue limit 000044 is too blue 110033 I mixed in some red 330033 Dark dark purple 330000 Just black with some red 222222 Lighter gray 220022 Even darker purple [/hidden] At this point, I can safely conclude anything that dips bellow #3d3d3d (the background for the dark theme) is going to be really hard to read, and the closer it is to black the better, but not good enough. If anything, the added colors make it harder to read. The last thing I want to test is bold to see if it was still hard to read: [Moltosha] this is a test [Moltosha] this is a test compared to [Moltosha] this is a test [Moltosha] this is a test I still feel undecided in terms of readability. Which one is the hardest for you guys to read? Do the colors seem easier to read for you guys? Does the bolded black text make it easier to read or should Moltosha stick with the default text color?

Jamie August 24, 2019 Share August 24, 2019 The bold helps. I find all of the color tests unreadable. -J The world is far, the world is wide; the man needs someone by his side. Our Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger August 25, 2019 Share August 25, 2019 Just use dark. I'm sorry, I'm confused by what you mean. This issue is exclusive to dark theme, unless you're talking about the black text?

Tewi August 25, 2019 Share August 25, 2019 None of those colors (including the black name) are readable for us, but our monitor actually is raised a bit so things are darker to us unless we sit up very straight - if we sat up straight we could read them all, but I think we could probably read just about anything that wasn't the exact same color as the forum background. Truly, finding a color that's easily readable on both themes is impossible. That's why everyone should use the Dark theme. Hi, I'm Tewi, one of Luminesce's tulpas. I often switch to take care of things for the others. All I want is a simple, peaceful life. With my family.
