Pink (highlighting) for girls, eh?

[GertrudeBelle]

When scrapping all of our custom colours, why on earth did you think that sugary pink and pastels would be the right choice to impose on MN users?

Oh come on!

I agree!

Bloody hate this. It's so difficult to see. Give me bog standard grey any day...

I am beige or maybe its soft cream i thought mumsnet was broken but its so blah why the change

I fucking hate the new colours

Too pale and hurt my eyes a bit

Bet you it all ends up being the same colouring e.g. as the Apps.

Because having a vagina = loving pink

It's awful. I'd rather they took the highlighting away altogether.

I don't mind that it's pink or whatever, just that I can't see it. Navigating long threads has become a pain in the arse at one stroke.

Why, MN?

Oh what, can we not change it? It's not dark enough, I can hardly see it!

I don't like it at all. Everything looks the same on my screen.

It's really hard to see they need to choose a darker colour, and why choose pink anyway... I really don't like it

Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback - we're sorry to hear you don't like the colours. Can we direct you to this thread - this is where we've been posting more info, and will continue to update.

Thanks.

Thanks Katherine.

Except there hasn't been an update for over 24 hours.

I prefer the stronger colours as often I just scroll through for OP updates before I post.

We have an update!

Please do take a look: here.
