MN has made me pink and I am outraged at the stereotyping!

[IwantToRetire]

I feel that I have been taken over by aliens.

All my posts are now pink.

And OP posts are now the blue that used to be the colour on MNHQ posts.

Yes, but to what? I only have white, blue, bilious salmon & 2 smudgy colours which aren't really anything yet somehow still manage to be annoying.🙄

Me too.

The green now is more grey than green. And the purple is now a (vomit inducing) baby pink.

I'm starting to wonder if all of FWR had purple and green as their colours? 💚🤍💜

You might notice things are looking a bit different today. We’ve given Mumsnet a colour refresh, based on feedback from you in our surveys (thank you!).

We’ve also moved a couple of things around to reduce clutter and make things easier to find:

Watch now sits under the OP post

Report has moved into the meatball menu (the three dots on posts)

As ever, we’d love to hear what you think, so please share your feedback below.

Apparently MN users asked for this!

Testy test test.

The label colours are a bit alarming. I guess the designer was going for strong label colours on a pale background.

The old shades were a lot easier on the eyes. These new ones feel like eye strain waiting to happen. Too bright or something. Eurgh.

What’s wrong with pink?

I’m blue (da BA Dee)

EDIT: Nope, pink

Just gone for a nosey but I don't like any of the colour options as I hate pastels with a passion. Wonder how many meetings they needed MNHQ to come up with this 🙄.

I had them too and would like them back!

induces nausea - seriously

may just have to have pale green and pale grey

I have posted negative comment on site stuff.

I just dont believe anyone actually sat down with a colour chart and said lets only have candy stripe colours.

#FirstWorldProblems comes to mind 😁

I think you might want to educate yourself about people with visual impairments being met by web designers.

I doubt that the changes made would meet web accessibility standards.

I didn't know there had even been a survey!

Had there been, I would have opted for the Paisley background.

I hate the lower contrast where there is white writing. It makes it harder to read.

That pink has genuinely given me a headache. With the exception of the blue and pink all the other colours blend themselves in with the other posts. Wonder if this is why we now have helpful "your/OPs post" at the top now.

There was a survey?

The banner and button blue just drills into your eyeballs and all the other colours look washed out

I tried green & grey - still hideous, partly because behind the scenes is another colour: a dead, flat grey which is put up against the 'grey' when you quote someone.

Is it just me, but I cant find the unfollow thread.

I can only see unfollow topic.

Now I really am confused.

Yikes - this blue is really hard to look at. Will help me spend less time on here I guess.

I like pink

I think this has now become "unwatch" and is at the bottom of the OP.

Why did this have to change?

I changed mine to grey.

I went dark because the bright white was giving me a headache. Now I don't know who is who.

What colour is this?
