[Added] Improve forum URL visibility

Postby GrueKun » Wed Jun 12, 2013 5:41 pm

This pertains to the forums, of course. I noticed the other day that text wrapped in appropriately with URL tags looks the same as regular text elsewhere in the paragraph. Its not a huge deal, except when you want to be tidy and turn a word like or into a URL. This means you have to be fairly descriptive of where your link actually is than you would need to if it were more visible.

Would it be possible to make URL text brighter? Perhaps even just plain white? I know there is a color palate for changing text, but it seems like URL's should stand out better on their own.

That is all. Thank you for your time.

Making the default text color for url tags different would be a very nice addition, because as you show here, links do not stand out at all. What I have been doing with links is before I post them, but that is a bit tedious.

Don't have the power to change this, but hopefully someone that does will consider it.

I noticed that on the main page it underlines hotlinks, but on the forums it does not. I could change the color in either place although any color but white on the main site would kind of clash with the color scheme.



Edit: fixed. :confused:

This is true. However, the text color is currently silver, or something similar. Even white hyperlinks would add notable emphasis. At least, better than what is there now.

I changed it to a more bluish silver. Is it not showing up for you?

Try refreshing the page maybe.

Alright, I think there is some conflicting css. I'll try and change some stuff.
I'm trying to make the post url's be different from the whole sites urls.

edit: I think I got it working.
