Asthetic color change options

12 years ago

I think it would be nice if readers could change the background of the text to make it a little easier to read.  

A glaringly bright white background at 3 A.M. tends to grate on you.

A lot of e-readers have settings where you can change the background to black and text to white or the background to a manila color for easier reading.

I'm not sure if this has been brought up before, but I think it would be a nice addition.

I think it would be better to add this in the new layout of the site.

You would have to include a color font which matches the background so that we can write secret messages in our storygames. Lol!

The new look CYS that will eventually come out will probably fix this. In the meantime, try f.lux. It looks a little weird at first but you get used to it. Basically, it makes your computer screen sepia-ish at night time (which apparently helps a lot with sleep, too). I've been using it for about three weeks and I don't get tired eyes at night anymore.

Alternatively, if you're on a Mac press control+option+command+8 to invert the colours on your screen (white becomes black, black becomes white, CYS banner becomes blue etc.), and if you're on Windows just search the internet for a program that does the same.
