Site too dark?

Am I the only one to whom the site seems too dark? Maybe the text boxes could be another color other than black, as that is hard to see against a black background.

I do agree, it can get a bit annoying. However, it fits the POTC theme quite well.

I think as long as you keep the text bright, there is no problem. But the dark red text for the navigation could be fixed.

Sure, it's dark. But the movie IS dark. So it kind of fits.

Anyway, if it's too dark, just turn the brightness of your screen up. It might help.

I agree. It is a tad' bit to dark.

We should have a choice of the theme. Maybe we can have something like VMKF's? I would like that bunches, that suits my eyes.

I'm sure we'll have more skins soon. But this site has just opened. So just give it a few months. No rush.

I think it's perfect for the movie. You don't see bright colors in the movie at all, this movie is pretty much made for dark colors. You don't see the characters going around in yellow and light green now, do we?

But I guess if it hurts your eyes than that's a reason why it would be bad. They'll probably come out with multiple skins to choose from, but I personally like this skin, it's perfect for the movie.

Am I the only one who doesn't have an eye problem with the site? My eyes are fine reading threads on here.

If you guys have a problem reading on here, just highlight the text.

Personally, I'm not that font of dark skins. I'd appreciate a brighter skin, but I'm still okay with this one.

When I signed up, I couldn't read what I was typing in the boxes. I agree it's too dark, but I don't care. It's a cool skin, and I like it xD

Personally, I think it's fine. I was kinda hoping for a topical-ish skin, but this fits the theme much better. :}

It does seem dark. The thread about the pirate smileys was really dark, I had a hard time seeing most of the smileys, I now feel like I have old woman eyes.
