What is it with these invisible sections of this forum?

Hi,

Have you tried setting the forum colour scheme to black? ("Mild.")

In the bottom left of the page..

 

Of course if Gork’s computer is showing the red as pink your screen shot could well be pink too!

 

Or the possibility of cataracts filtering any red image from the device as pink... Thus making the white lettering indistinguishable??

 

@Gork - There are no invisible part of the forum. That would sort of defeat the object of the whole thing. Interetsingly, the site went through an inspection process a few months ago, in order to comply with standards around accessibility, although I can't, for the life of me recall the catchy title of the Standard concerned. It is the standards the NHS and other very large organisations comply with.

I see others have suggested you adjust your forum settings, and on a previous post, I suggested if you were still having problems you could contact [email protected] with example screen shots and someone there would try to help you on a 1:1 basis.

On Windows 10, there are various settings which can adjust how things appear on your screen. It could be useful to check those out, in case something got changes by mistake along the way.

Similarly on handheld devices, such as iPads or Android Tablets there are settings, usually designed for those with sight issues, which can make things appear on the screen - lighter/darker, brighter or even almost as a photographic negative.

 

@Gork - Thinking about this, I had something equally bizarre a couple of years ago, when a graphics card was failing on a laptop. It affected everything I had open at the time, meaning everything had either a ral pink/blue/yellow hue to it, then latterly, it just went to bold, blocks of colour in stripes across the screen.

A replacement graphics card sorted it out.

I hope that isn't your issue, but just trying to think outside the box.

 

My mum had them.. She mentioned it was like constantly looking a dirty net curtain.

Oddly though, some of the description from @gork almost suggests what happens with the eyes (or image perception.) during hypoglycaemia?? Colour blindness, (strong colours "muted.") dark text getting a "white out" on a bright background.

Which can make this below during a low.



Look a little like this quick mock up of the same screenshot??

 

I agree.. However, part of the issue with a hypo (mentally) is one can also get locked into a "loop" one can't get out of?
Possibly why the issue fixation with this site..? They can play cruel tricks till one realises, "take in some carb & treat it."
