Link-color settingsLink-color settingsPosted Jun 7, 2002 19:08 UTC (Fri) by Max.Hyre (subscriber, #1054)In reply to: The new layout is "interesting". by kune Parent article: Welcome to the new LWN.net!
I'll go further than kune on the colors: There's an option on the (read: at least on my) browser to set visited and unvisited colors. It'd be nice to see them in effect. Setting that and stuff like font sizes (and maybe fonts, even) feels like you want to work in TeX. TeX is great, but HTML is about getting the info to the reader, rather than about beautiful design. It's wonderful when beautiful design is there, but as soon as it interferes with legibility or navigability (on, I claim, any browser), it's time to ditch the chrome. Sorry, I bet you put a lot of work into the appearance, but if there's a way to tell the browser: ``If your user has set a preference for this, skip setting the site's version'' would probably be more comfortable for most people. That said, note that it all comes under niceties. This is certainly gonna continue as my top site, and I really appreciate the hard work you all do to get out such high-quality news. (It certainly beats the two ``real-world'' newspapers offered around here.) Finally, thanks for the Visa donation method. You've got my dough, and can expect more next year. :-)
