Posts in different font colours

The new board design is lovely, and once I got used to it, I really like it. (I don't like change very much).

One thing I have noticed, however, is that people are posting in pretty colours, other than black, and on some pages, this is virtually illegible. Is there some way of letting people know? A pale yellow text on a beige background is impossible to read. I know that I can read it by highlighting the post, but when I am just skimming, I just don't take the time, and often miss what people are saying.

I see what you mean. I have encountered this myself as well. The styles are set up so that the default color is easy to read. Once users start to play with the colors - they're not going to show up properly on some styles.

I wouldn't like to disable font colors - I think they can be useful for playing around with bits and words. Not sure how to let everyone know about the problem... - any ideas?

What I do is I highlight the text and that way I can read it all at once. It only takes a moment to do, and works quite well.
