<a href="https://i.imgur.com/GO3mqcX.png" rel="nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/GO3mqcX.png</a> Cool that these changes were made I guess, but I can't see any of the text lol
It amazes me how often the UI is changed but not actually improved. This is a strict downgrade. It makes it more blinding, even in dark mode, and makes it less readable for everyone. Why was this change made? Who was it for?
I mean, I basically can't see anything anywhere anymore. I have an eye condition which makes white blur over other colours; so this was also a huge step down for site accessability. Please curb your enthusiasm Roll20 and atleast give us some more muted colours.

I feel like my eyes can't focus, it's giving me a headache. How does something like this roll out to live?
Hello there! I've been having the same problem. Since the page titles are in white letters, they have become very difficult to read.
Why the white text on white background for the drop down tool bar with maps???? you cant read it....please fix. many thanks =P
Ack!&nbsp; Unreadable map labels.&nbsp; yadda yadda.&nbsp; Please help!
Exactly!&nbsp; Did anyone look at the game? I squinted at it for 5 minutes before coming here to see if it was just me. MysterX said: I feel like my eyes can't focus, it's giving me a headache.

Awful. Terrible. I can't believe that it's not an error. I hope whatever intern that messed this up is forgiven and that it is simply corrected.

It is definitely an error. Sometimes it takes a while to fix new things, since a quick fix can often make things worse. I know it's being looked at, and I'm confident that Roll20 will fix at least the map page and a few other things that were broken in this update.

Indeed - it's barely readable. @roll20 this needs to be fixed soon!

Can't see a single thing properly, literally all my map names are written in such a faint color, I can barely see them... Doesn't matter if I use dark mode or not, same white box with sky blue text for map names on either mode... Needs fixing PRONTO! if you expect people to keep subscribing to you.

Do you know whether Roll20 Team have anyone reading the Forums who might post an official answer to this? There are 100's of posts about it, today. Numerous threads going over 25 replies each, nearly 100% asking to revert this change. The forum feels like Roll20 Team is not even seeing these threads. There is no Roll20 Team reply in them, on the 2nd day so far.

I know that Roll20 sees the forum reports. I have passed on many links myself. I haven't gotten much response either. I can only speculate that they do not wish to respond until there is a real answer to give. I.e. they are concentrating their time on addressing the problem and not making promises until they have solutions. I agree that radio silence is not good, and leads to user frustration. My only advice is to keep reporting actual errors and problems, things that make the site unusable for everyone , like the map page display. Saying "I hate this, it's terrible, it burns, etc" is less helpful than saying "I do not like the pink on white; I find it to be glaring and difficult to read". And refraining from insults and personal attacks on the dev team, of course. Giving factual examples, preferably with screen shots helps cut down the noise, and gives them specific things to work on or examine.
