try an alternate panel colour scheme

go to
# User control panel
# Board Preferances
# My Board style

I use I dlaunch Black - which gives me black writing on white background
many use the Prosilver.-- you may miss the Saints banner but your eyes appreciate it.

Yep. The default is truly horrible - not sure why so many put up with it.

Telstra who owns and runs it.

Saints as well as every other club bar Essendon signed over the right to the afl over 10 years ago now. Clubs have very little say in how it is run and a couple of years ago the saints got Telstra to develop a new separate website called saints central which due to Telstra brilliance was basically unusable and was shut down after two years.

Seriously - try extreme dark red - it is awesome. You get the banner and it is genuine red white and black!

No idea how you guys can use a dark background, it hurts my eyes. Light background is the only thing that makes sense for me.

Agree. White writing? Black background? Should be the other way around! The pain!

I use the white background (slight grey/red tint) with black text, so my eyes don't fall out of my head.

It looks like it belongs in the late 90s, but I don't log-out with a migraine.



Just need a vote up/vote down button and I'd be happy.
