I use this site daily, it's a great tool. However, today I noticed that they changed the colour from orange to a nasty bright green. Not only is it harsh on the eyes but I find it really hard to read the bright green text on the white background. It's really put me off using the site. I think a much darker shade of green would work much better, perhaps the same shade as the tri-colour green.

Does anyone else agree with me or am I just being petty?

I went to the site and yes that is quite obnoxious. I went intending to only look at the greenness but I ended up voting in a bunch of those poles.

Is fíor daoibh. Is pianmhar an dath é, cosúil le hingneacha ar chlár dubh, ach do na súile.

Féachaigí anois. Tá an t-oráiste ar ais. :-) Maidir leis an "nasty bright green" a bhí ann, "Níl ann ach meancóg," a dúirt Dermot.

I didn't see bright green until it was 'fixed'...now I do...you're right, it is obnoxious

Yes it's back but the text is still orange and legible. There's obviously a difference of opinion between the administrators on the use of tri-colour orange on the site!
