Is Blue a Problem for You?

[bluescorpion]

Blue is my favourite color but I find it hard to read with the Subject in this Forum written in Light Blue.
Especially Light Blue on Light Grey background. Do you agree?
Is it just my genes or do you find it a problem too?

Orange on gray is worse, I saw this in some documentation, my brain almoste exploded when I tried to read it.

Well Radiance is a developer, not a designer (sorry I had to do this one...)

Not that I am aware, my genes seems to be fine!

For the sake of clarity light things should have darker background and vice versa. Light yellow on light gray would be equally damaging to readability such as any other given light colour on light background.

Maybe its meant to be read with 3D glasses on?
Sorry, no offense meant to the poster of that orange message.

i don't have an issue reading it.
is it that bad ?

maybe we can make it a bit darker blue ?
is there anyone else that can't read it properly?

Me.
In case one person can vote 2 times, I thought it would be better to raise both hands

(on the orange on gray )

Blue on gray is fine

Blue is not a problem for me.

I vote for little bit darker blue. Currently it's readable but not so pleasant for the eyes.

I can read it, too, but a slightly darker blue would probably pop better. Sam's name seems to show OK and it's a slightly darker blue.
