Burning my eyes...

Hello Guys!!!

I'm really a HotScripts zealot, however the new site look is burning my eyes and I'm not getting stay for long time in this site.

Might what's causing this is the excessive usage of the extremely strong red color combined with light gray.

Is somenone also having this same symptoms??!?!


Regards,

marcoBR

btw, sorry 4 my english...

I've had no trouble with the new site design so far. the colors are fine to me. The combination of the red and the light gray are no problem to my eyes.

I think a blue design would contrast well with the red pepper and be a little more kind to eyeballs

This is ok with my eyes, but I the blue and red would really screw with my eyes. Then again, everyone is different with what they are comfortable seeing. I think it is about time HS gets a color scheme that matches the site name.

Eh. It's a bit bright, and does cause some fatigue, especially when you're looking consistently over hours (or so I've noticed). But it ain't that bad (no headache yet!).

I'd love darker red with less contrast, but that's just personal.

I like it, though after being around here for a couple days, I can see what you mean.

The red seems distracting to my eyes, its like i have a narrow vision when I come here...

I agree the red is the color of Hotscript, but I've noticed when reading threads the top nav and bottom of each post make my eyes wonder.

I think it would be good, just not to use so much of it.
Like the darker red could be removed in the menu bars.
