I can't be the only one who thinks this, right?

As someone with eye issues I agree with everything on this thread - I already wear glasses, I shouldn't have to squint to read some fonts and yet... it still happens :c

 

[manofico]

I upped my text size for this, but. Haha, I much prefer size 1 just because it's neat and tidy to me. I agree that the light colors are very obnoxious, however. I can see the OP's point there. But if the OP, or anyone else, is having a hard time reading small fonts, you should all set a default minimum font size on your browsers.

I know for a fact that Chrome has this in its settings, and I don't doubt the rest of them do as well. That way, you'll never have trouble with a font being to small to read anywhere, and people don't have to worry terribly about whether or not y'all can read their posts or not.

The bright blue is annoying but the pink is kinda okay.

Am I the only one who despises the pastel colours that some people use?

These ones

I mean my eyesight is hardly the best, but some of the colours are so bright they practically fade into the white boxes and become illegible. If you highlight it, its much easier to read.

Oh, and the people who write in size 1 font as well may as well just have a giant middle finger in the middle of their post, because it's totally illegible for me.

Is it just me? I don't know, but it's got on my nerves for ages, and it seems the use of these frustrating colours and font sizes is getting more common.

I'm going to assume that whoever uses colours like that are in their teens and it's ok b/c I went through that phase too where EVERYTHING had to be in colors XD

But there are probably people who are colour blind or have really bad eye sight and will be a pain to read for them.

Being colour blind doesn't really make a difference but yes, anyone who feels the need to post in colours is bad and they should feel bad

i thought that typing like this was cute but guess what !!! its not !!!

curse you, bbc text code
other bbc code is fine tho

 

[Kitsuragi]

the pink is okay, but the cyan is hard to read. with hard fonts like that, it's best to just drag your cursor over the words to have it highlighted blue and what not.
also yellow, i absolutely hate yellow font. omfg. no thanks.

 

[Hyperpesta]

Yeah, I hate light colors, like your text can be colored but please there is no need to color it so pale.



Wow most of this post is the word colour spelt in the american way.

 

[Coach]

Having both size 1 and pastels is so annoying, but if you just have one or the other it's fine. I can read size one, and the pastel pink. The cyan is hard to see, though. It's people's choice, but if you go over the top it gets to a point where it is unreadable

Being colourblind wasn't necessarily what I was getting at, baring in mind that typing in any colour could get on the wrong side of someone's colourblindness (there are many different types)

I just mean that some pastel colours are notoriously difficult to read, and slimming it down to size 1 on top of that is just frustrating.

I also think that typing in the top sizes is completely unnecessary most of the time. I don't feel it's as much of a problem as these colours, but it is something that is just obnoxious.

 

[piichinu]

personally those are just ugly colors idc if theyre hard to read

but yeah i use the small font and have no problem reading it srry

i also normally use grey + one other color because i like it. i also love when others do this correctly because it looks really nice and i can read it easily.

PS. if u guys think those are "kawaii" colors. lol. bc theyre hideous af and i dont even want to consider them pastels. saturated + dark is ok, but saturated + light? ew i really cant stand it.
maybe theres something with ur monitors? because different computers display colors differently

i dont see a problem with these colors and theyre considered "kawaii" or pastel too so

 

[daniduckyface]

I think it's okay? it's easier for me to read on mobile as i can zoom in but most of the time i'm on my macbook and i highlight it to read it easier.

but why do people do this

 

[Nerd House]

People use them to make themselves stand out more, to be special, or to "beautify" their shop posts. Unfortunately, poor color or font size choices get them overlooked. Personally, I like using red for my posts, but a lot of the time I forget to do it.

Same as me, but i use purple alot.

 

[VioletPrincess]

I agree the pastels are unreadable. I wear glasses and have a bit of double vision. So pastels and size one font I don't even try to read. Sorry it's just to painful to try and squint to read so I don't anymore.

 

[lazuli]

obviously this is how you should SHOULDNT format your text

 

[Rasha]

yes. It makes the text hard to see

 

[Ragdoll]

i dont like those, those look more like neon >.< hurts my eyes too..

i do like this kind of pink pastel and this kind of blue pastel. only thing is, ppl shouldnt put up shops with any of these colours because they're kinda hard to read ._.
