I love the new design, it encompasses many modern design patterns, it's clean, flat and all the elements have room to breath. My biggest issue with the redesign it that I and many others have huge difficultly reading black text on a white background. If anyone would like to find out more about visual stress then this link provides a quick, easy to digest overview http://www.crossboweducation.com/articles/visual-stress-symptoms-and-solutions/ http://www.crossboweducation.com/articles/visual-stress-symp....
I hope it's a problem they acknowledge and provide a solution in a future iteration. Until then, I'll have to install a browser extension to modify the background colour.
- Igglyboo 12y agoI've never heard of this actually, I would have thought black on white was the best way to read text. What would be a better choice? Would black on off-white be better?
- TylerE 12y agoHonestly on a backlutz screen, grey on navy is hard to beat. There's a reason all of those 80s mainframe apps looked like that. They did studies.
- joshuacc 12y agoWhile most printed materials are "black" on "white," when the range is compared to a light-emitting screen that's more like "dark gray" on "light gray." Looking at something with too much contrast for a long time can cause eyestrain.
