Me too. Phoenixx, I hope you've recovered from what sounds like an intense weekend.

The high contrast is bothering me which is why I don't have a high contrast theme ON my computer! I squint enough as it is this is going to be very difficult for me Im afraid. I cant deal with dark layouts well, or I mean I don't deal with them well.

Yeah it's getting hard to see for me as well.

I have a monitor that is lcd under a shiny surface, so the glare form the layout is terrible, Ive even turned down the brightness.

You would think that they would take all of that into consideration when doing this.

I would yes, but then perhaps they dont realize how many of us over 21 users are on site, only high contrast users I know are under 21. But we shall see when it begins, Im not used to the avis being on the right side either.
Uh oh this one needs help a buddy of mine just got it from abandoned.

I know juru and jelly are pretty aware of the adults on the site so lets hope for the best :)

*shrugs* I hate to be the one dissenter, but I don't really mind it...I might change my mind when I get home and log into my laptop though.

I love it dark! It's much kinda on the eyes for me.

So far ive got it to a non shiny contrast, but Ill have to see about later, right now I have a dark background and then the normal post box which is white and blue.

hit refresh, it becomes black then.

Phoenixx, that's how it looks for me too.

Is anyone else having a tough time differentiating between updated and non-updated threads? With the white text, it's tough to see if it's bold or not.

OH this is awesome layout!
I love it.
has the event started yet?
I went to the announcement and there was nothing said I clicked it said I didn't have permission hahaha
bad girl.

Tried that dragoness it doesnt change t is still white.

It changes back and fourth for me one miniute white then black. Maybe there still working on the it.

Same here Pink I think Ill takke an hours nap maybe when I get back it will be better or closer to being started.

Have a nice nap Phoenixx, I wish I could do the same. Maybe tonight after work...

It was ok the phone woke me I didnt shut the ringer off, rofl never fails..

Mine is always on vibrate. So I don't have that problem at all.

Uhhmm landlines don't have Vibrate, rofl, I only use the cell when Im out of the house.

Oh.
WEll they should then.

Agreed they should otherwise Id be awake any ways, Im going to get my azz chewed by Sage when he gets home, but it's ok, he would have done the same. I rescued a kitten form the jaws of a dog and brought it in the house and now she is in a box next to me crying for her mother, when the twins get home I will see if the others survived. See Our Neighbor died, and his family was a bunch of irresponsible creeps, and thats being nice. The cleaned out his house, put his dog down, and left his cats who they KNEW were there to fend for themselves. One of them had a litter of kittens, she moved them under m porch because we got a bag of cat food and continued to feed his cats. I heard a dog barking out front, I dont have an dogs here they are all on the ranch which is about two hours away and there are ranch hands there anyways. I digress, the dog had one of the babies in its mouth and was shaking it, and so I wigged out and picked up the dog and shook it, it ran off yelping and the little one was just lying there shaking. I only did what any mother would do, I picked it up, checked for injuries and mothered it.

I wish I could take it under my wing, I need something to mother that's actually alive.

I have kittens to find homes for I didnt need another one to be sure but I couldnt just let the dog maul it.

Yeah.
I'm not even going to comment on those people you mentioned, because I know it'll get me in trouble, because of the words that come to mind just reading your post bring to mind are not kid friendly at all.
