New tweak this morning: Original Poster's colour change

someone has mentioned having options; that would be nice

I wouldn't underestimate the power of white, or offwhite / pearl / splashed white / ghost white whatever it is the case here. I think the original poster's posts would be distinctive. The quotes are green anyway so there's no work that needs to be done presumable.
Or may be the OP to simply have a set of font and color :snow_grin exclusive to them. With that said, I've often wished we had an option to set fonts and colors. Might be an uplifting experience and noones posts would across as unsophisticated.

That would be very nice. I often don't appreciate some of the changes and would dearly love to be able to stick with what works for me.

This is in Chrome.

Has a sort of orange highlight around any focused input box?

I must admit am very disappointed that I am not seeing this in chrome

Would like too. But then have been playing with my settings so probably why.

I'm not sure the green backround to the posts complies with the latest web accesibility standards actually....

I think I missed this change for the brief time it was on here ... I, too, agree with the idea of an MSE test lab, where seasoned users can test forum changes.

Why just seasoned users, even newbies might be good. Just one seemingly little idea, if the team is receptive, from nowhere might make a big difference. There should be an option to choose.

I found the effect fermi posted a bit subtle, but I do have it in Chrome. However, it's still quite subtle, and the title is only framed in orange if I click in it, and the reply box is only framed with orange if I'm in that.

Life's too short to look for a pink border ... but if it was there I'd definitely have that! :rotfl:

Yes. That is the way it works.

The reason I have it showing in both is because I combined two separate screenshots into one. Should have said really.

aha! stopped sulking now, I can see it too! but am seeing it now too while quoting fermi.

Infact, when you post a reply, as I am now, the frame around my entry screen goes orange - that type of thing seems a good (re)starting point.

OK. To get things back on track here.....

In that case I presume you envisage something like this?
