What Do You Think About The New WSN Color Scheme?

Hey Everyone!

Hope you enjoyed Independence Day and am glad to be back for more engaging web series discussions.

To start things off, I'd like your feedback on our new gray color scheme. I was over the basic and commonly default white background and black text and wanted to switch it up a bit.

Some of you have messaged me complimenting it, some not so much... saying it's hard to read.

Either way I value your voice and would LOVE more feedback from you/even suggestions.

So feel free to tell us what you think about the new color scheme in the comment box below.

Thanks,

Rich

I've noticed a few of the changes and I really like it. I'm not partial to color. I think that the just you taking any action shows that this is becoming something more than when I originally signed up and I really appreciate that Mr. Mbariket because a site like this is needed very much.

Thanks for your voice. Most important thing is making sure our audience are happy. Personally I like it, and the non-web series people I've shown like it as well. But the current color scheme is not etched in stone and we can always return to white and black if you guys want it. :)

Hello Rich,

I'm not a big fan of the new color scheme. It feels like everything is blended together with grey on grey and it kills a lot of the contrats needed to keep visitors attention. The content is always very good though so I guess it bamances out.

I'm late to the conversation so I'm not sure which color scheme you are talking about. I did notice a few days ago that things were really "out there" and I couldn't really look at the site for very long. There's something to be said for originality for sure, but the "boring" look is the most common because it works so well. Currently (7.9.12) the color scheme looks alright to me, but I'd still prefer black text. The really light gray (such as "1 hour ago" on the timeline) is nearly impossible for me to read on my current monitor settings. But the gray boarders aren't bad : )
