Link colour

Hey Pepe, how about a slightly better contrast colour for links? The #555 is practically indistinguishable from the general post text colour.

Maybe a nice red or similar.

Chrome developer tools tell me that the CSS that's being used for link tags is in your global.css, around line 12.

I don't think that's the correct line. I'll have a look at it later; the css has bucketloads of different link colours specified so it'll take a bit of examination to find the right one.

The Nasri theme has red links, just fyi.

Should be the default layout mate

Pepe: I'm on the narrow version of the Na Na Nasri theme. Both it and the wide version show blackish-greyish links for me.

The colour value was pulled off that part of CSS according to Chrome's Inspect Element | Computed Style readout, but I may have missed something like a mouseover interaction when I was inspecting the page element.

Oh right, I must have made the change after I split the theme. I'll try and look at it tonight.

Line 12 refers to the global link colour like the usernames, navbar (One more in the Tolly › The IT Crowd › Tech Support and Change Suggestions › Link colour), PM link etc, so I can't change that. I'm not sure why the links in posts aren't displaying as red for you.

CSS is a pain in the hole, particularly someone else's CSS.

I fixed it with the StyleBot extension to Chrome, and some custom to OMT client-side CSS as follows:

div[id*="pid_"] a {
	color: #aa0000; /* or your preferred red */
	fontweight: bold;
}

This should be a red link to Google (on my machine).
