Something a little less garish please please

Red is a colour synonymous with Danger, Failure, Incorrect and all things that require immediate attention

Can this be toned down to a blue or something less eye glaring?

Please

You may be overthinking this, you know. But we have already addressed this point, so I'm not too sure why you're starting a new thread about it.

Andrew, please tell me more as I still see it on screen and I'm not aware of an existing thread

Thanks

RE: About the new site

Try looking a couple of threads down from the one you've just started in the 'About the new site' section. Or among the 120-something replies on this thread.

And when I say addressed, I mean yes, we have addressed the point that some don't like the red markers, but JD and his team are all out of pixie dust right now and need some sleep, so it will be looked at in the fullness of time.

Red is also a colour synonymous with WHF Wink

Not at all. As with any new site, there are bound to be a few gremlins. I've prioritised the key ones with John and his team, some of the others may have to wait. That's all.
