It's backwards now. Visited links brighter than unreads.

The link colors currently used are fine for me (yellowish for unread links, beige for visited links).

On my smartphone the visited links look brighter than on the desktop monitor. But that's ok. Unread links are more prominent, at least for my eyes. face-smile.png

Thanks for the work and effort!

For me this is vice versa currently. Ar you sure you had reload the css?

For me this is confusing, unread links should be more prominent (brighter), imho. Maybe i need to get used to this…

The colors I see are:

  • Visited links: F2 F0 AA (looks brighter to me)
  • Unread links: FF E6 73

This is quite the other way as Nordfriese proposed. I clear the cache when closing Firefox. And I close my browser each day, so I assume the CSS is reloaded.

I agree that typically unread links are darker than visited links. For widelands I like it the way I can see it now. These colors are clearly distinguishable. But if they are switched it will be okay as well.

I find now that the new style is more visually appealing. The colours are just right, once I got used to the slightly duller unlooked at links. I
For me it's 10 stars, well done. ( well 10 rubber chickens anyway, but you probably won't understand that )

Yes, because hessenfarmer requested it

So everybody (execpt me face-wink.png ) is happy with the current colors, let's leave it like this face-smile.png

Welll, not everybody. : ) I'd prefer the visited links to be dark (like grey) and the unvisited to be bright (light green/cyan say).

But it doesn't matter much. One gets used to whatever on each site or with each program, etc. It is only newcomers who will be confused at first.
