Am I the only one who has a hard time now, differentiating the posts I've previously viewed from those I haven't looked at yet? It used to be much easier for me to see the change in color from one post to the next.

the color change is from black to a dark blue right now, which is the same color as the dark blue on your screen in the tables on the page. If this is too subtle to notice, then it can be changed to a lighter shade for usability. I feel its important to see the difference by glance at color instead of icons or any other thing that needs to be interpreted by your brain. just faster that way.

what would you suggest?

I would suggest that it be set up in such a way that we can tell at a glance whether or not we've viewed the post. In other words, like it used to be.

Thanks for asking.

Yeah, it's a little harder to tell when you've read a post and when you haven't. Maybe a more dramatic color change would be good.

Yes I agree. I think the shade has been further changed to brown/dark red, but I think more changes is needed. It still takes me a while to figure out whether I have read the thread or not. When I say a while, I mean like half a sec to a full sec. It used to be instantaneous.

Quite frustrating.

Just watch the folders on the left of the thread. Pink means new posts. Yellow means you've read it. Just don't use "back" and the color will change.
