Pink background to posts?

Why is the site now showing a pink background for our posts when writing and green for the OP's?

Hi OP

Can you just let us know what device/browser you're using to access the site?

No3392 · 20/05/2025 15:41

It's always been like this for me!

I like it! Can distinguish between op, other posters and me!

The colours changed for me recently and I hate it. I want the old ones back.

Mine has always been like this, with blue for MN.

Same for me. Just now, although it was fine this morning. My posts re usually in green and the OP’s are in pink. It just switched when I came back on. I logged out then in again, but it is still the same.

I’m using Chrome on my iPad.

Also I just checked my settings and they indicate the colours the way I usually use them, they do not reflect the switch.

Great. The first message I posted is in pink, the second one is in green, the way I like it. Maybe we just have to go to settings and it fixes itself?

Andylion · 21/05/2025 21:14

Now my second message is pink again. I am backing away….

Snap. The new green is very harsh on my eyes

This is getting confusing. I’ve always seen OP’s posts in green and mine in pink. Suddenly mine went green today when I wasn’t the OP!

My posts have also turned a dirty pink, with the OPs being green as they were before, along were mine. I’m on an iPad using safari and haven’t changed any of my settings.

Same. My posts are now purple. I want my pink back.

ETA - wow, that was quick 😂

Mine have changed too. In Settings I have other OP's set at pink, they are now green, but if I click 'See All' of the OP's messages they revert to pink!
In Settings I have my own OP's set to green, they are now lavender. Very strange.
