Cruel Despot, recovering dialogue text - colorer
I changed the text color for dialogue on my first few posts, but then repented.
It all started when I got the bright idea of copying and pasting a thread into a seperate document to preserve it. With white-on-black text, that is a pain in the butt. So, I changed the "forum skin" on my account/edit options from Enworld Default to Player's Handbook, which is black-on-white. This reversed the color of the default text, but the other colors stayed the same. yellow looks good on black, but yellow on white will give you a headache.
I encourage everyone to take the other forum skins for a test drive before they decide on their own text color scheme. You may decide, like me, to give up on altering the text color.
And the moral of the story is that most good ideas aren't. Then everyone lived happily ever after. The end.
