Mflixster.com is launched

Following the initial test with the Round the Island Race in 2005, I have finally finished the site for pictures and clips. It's not commercial and not sponsored, but please use it and let me know what you think. So far there are a few pictures and clips from my blast down the Western Solent on Saturday with my new folding prop (some pics of that as well).

Thanks, Simon

Can't read blue text on a black background ! Life is difficult enough already.

Sorry, agree with sarabande. The colours make it extremely difficult to read.

Cheers,

Colin

Hi, Colors on links can be a challenge, but I've just changed it to a pinkish colour, so how does it look now? Thanks, Simon

 

[sarabande]

Wow, speedy web management ! Much more legible. Now for the purple and grey text ... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Best of luck with the hits on the site. I'll keep an eye on it for interesting bits.

Can't read the text at all unless I stick my nose within a few inches of the screen. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Might just be my age of course, but........


<edit> read the post below, so I'll take the pic off now you've seen it

Hi, Thanks for the feedback. I am just in the process of changing the text to white (currently grey) which might help a bit. Will also experiment with size and see if it still looks OK.

Sort of OK but light on dark is very discouraging to readers. I usually skip articles in YM printed like that.

Thanks. I can sense a "user selected color scheme" version coming on. Either that, or perhaps I'll hit Specsavers for a sponsored ad ;-)
