This has been bugging me for a while and I know it’s been getting on a few other people’s nerves too. My ISP (Be) have a user forum on their main site which is… how shall I phrase this? “Bright”, so “bright” that I it actually feels like my eyes bleed after a while, as you can see:

So I got friendly with [link=http://www.greasespot.net/]Greasemonkey[/link] and wrote a little script for Firefox users which overrides the CSS styles used in the Be forums to make my eyes’ life a little easier – and hopefully a few other peoples’ too. It’s almost like a pair of sunglasses for the forums.

Directions:

• Use [link=http://getfirefox.com]Firefox[/link] – if you aren’t already then give yourself a little slap[size=9][i]*[/i][/size] and then install it.
• Install the [link=https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748]Greasemonkey Add-On from mozilla.org[/link]
• Then install the script that I wrote from [link=http://iamawake.co.uk/media/Bethere-forum-colour-fix.user.js]here[/link] or from [link=http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/8824]here[/link]
• Mosey on over to the [link=www.bethere.co.uk]www.bethere.co.uk[/link] forums and you should see something a bit more retina friendly, like this…
