Why is it that every time they "Tinker" with tjhis site tjhings go wrong? is this an experimental site they learn on?.I always thought that the main consideration in anyconcern was Customer satisfaction,especially if they are paying for it.**M**.

"It's perfectly true that wiki and Ancestry (etc) have light backgrounds, as do many sites one looks at...I think the difference is that many people use the GR site for long periods ( yes one does with Ancestry also, but there is much more text to cut down on any glare from the background and one is going from index to records, rather than 'reading posts' as such)."

The same is true of FB etc, there are more blocks of colour, and larger text to break up the background.

I will wait to see if anything more will be altered by GR (notably the light and fine turquoise text), and if not at least one person will be happy to see the back of me ;-)

How do you manage to cope on other sites with white backgrounds? because their is certainly plenty of them .. think this is getting a bit ridiculous now , how many more threads do we need about this ?

Put it this way.... This new look that GR has definitely does not do my Epilepsy any good at all. That said I am off now. ttfn . :-(

As Dizzi says..."types of Epilepsy".
Yes it definitely can, it depends on the Type.

Epilepsy is more often triggered by flashing, not brightness.
