    Question Does anyone else......

    Have trouble with the notification symbols on the side for new posts. I have a hard time telling which ones have new posts as there is not much difference in the colors when there is one.



    I understand it is a darker blue, just saying it is not much different then the lighter blue on my screens, and when I stop by for a quick visit it is hard to tell what has new and what doesn't so often times I just look at the dates and times

    Just curious if anyone has had this problem and made a change to their screen color or anything that has helped. It acts the same way on my PC as it does on the laptop.

    Next to the tab "Forum up top right under the logo. You can click the button "whats new". That is what I do.

    I will look into changing those icons. I think that they are pretty bland anyways.

    Any ideas for potential icons?

    I click on "new posts".
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    Anything you want, my only suggestion would be more distinct. I am on a few different forums for dune buggies, Old Toro lawn tractors etc.. and I don't remember having this problem, you will get it, I have faith in you !!!

    I agree with you Tj and Mick you can do that, I am just in the habit of just scrolling down the page to see what's new. It helps remind me what topic it was listed under when I click into it and also I see all the catagories everytime I visit, so that helps me think of things to post when I see the different topics :confused: I know, small brain....darn it
