Does anyone else find the forum unreadable?

I find it almost impossible to read the text in the Failbetter forum since the colors switched to light on dark. Possibly this is due to my advanced age, as there is a well-known halo effect (no relation to Halo the game) that occurs with older eyes viewing bright against dark: a pinpoint of light becomes like a headlight in the rain. Are others experiencing this?

'They' are right here, thanks.
We'll look at a forum style switcher, but dev time over here is always squeezed. M_L_G's sneery eye-rolling about 'corporate pages' notwithstanding, our blog, company site and forum all looked completely different, we needed a tidy-up to look like a credible company, and when we did some basic testing, pale grey on dark grey got the best response. So
I locked the last thread because the drip, drip, of people going 'yeah +1' was noise in the recent posts stream. And, honestly, because guests, however welcome, coming to your living room and saying 'yeah, I think your curtains look like crap too' gets aggravating eventually.

I did a quick search in the Chrome Extensions store and found this plugin:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/change-colors/jbmkekhehjedonbhoikhhkmlapalklgn
Using this, you'd be able to set the background/foreground colours to whatever you like and then make it override it for this entire domain. This might work as a good fix for people who are struggling with the contrast. I'm sure there are similar plugins for Firefox and other browsers, so it might be worth having a hunt around in you don't use Chrome for browsing this forum.
Hope this is helpful!
