    Does anyone else find the new Moodle colour scheme difficult to read and nauseating? After about 5 mins on moodle today my eyes hurt and I felt like getting sick (yest I've had my eyes tested and they are fine). The new colours are dark orange writing on a light orange background in case anyone doesn't know. I emailed them about it and they said they might change it if more people complain about it. I was thinking I should start a petition to change it because I cant survive this for the year, anyone else agree?

    I don't like it either, but I spend as little time on Moodle as humanly possible.

    Had a look there, Don't find it too difficult myself though I may change my mind on that. I haven't actually seen how the modules are set out.

    I'm not a fan, but I'm not gonna let it annoy me. I've a lot more things to complain about! The one thing I do not like though is how big the font is.

    It's the same as last year though isn't it?

    From looking at both it seems like they are both the same other than the colour scheme. The apparent in your face ness is probably brought on by the colour. Apparently it should take no more than 5 mins for the IT guys to change the colour scheme if they are given enough reason to do so.

    A word of warning:

    DO NOT MOODLE FRAPE!

    It can have pretty serious consequences
