Gms why on Earth Did you Change the Whisper Colour. Some of us have the following issue with you doing this:
1. WE CAN:T READ THE WRITING
2. OUR EYES HURT, COLOUR SO DARK
3. PINK WAS BETTER xD

Change It Back GMs, We Demand Quality b:pleased

    if you cant read it, why not try making your text larger and bold it / unbold it. I haven't logged in yet to see the whisper color change, so I'm just throwing out ideas. But still, you can change the size and thickness of the words, so why not try that?

    It's a color problem...the color is hard to see against the background.

    I agree that the dark blue really sucks. What kind of monitor did the guy who made that brain **** use?

    i like the idea of different colours for friends/not friends and I'm always a fan of blue but the blue is too dark and hard to read :(

    The blue is irritating especially since I have Faction and whisper on when I have common chat up. So the blue whisper color gets similar to Faction that once in awhile, so I may miss a whisper or confuse it for the wrong chat.

    If you can't tell the difference between light blue and normal blue, then I recommend you go get your eyes checked.

    It has to do with the way the color blends into the background. There's also limitations on text since you can only make a window so large. I happen to use the largest size without bold (bold makes it harder to read actually), which helps with most types of chat. Anyways, that blue is very hard to see, a lighter color of blue like faction chat is pretty easy to read, but then becomes similar to faction. The pink isn't the most attractive color but isn't hard to read. It would be nice to either have that back, or to be able to define our own colors.

    My Point is, the dark blue shade is hard to read. Maybe you should get your eyes checked cause you skipped alot Missy

    My eyes are just fine. You don't see me complaining about the color, do you? No. I have no problems at all recognizing which is which.

    I agree... Right after I opened this post, I got a whisper. I almost missed it completely. I use the smallest text size, bolded, so I can see the most chat possible. I believe that PWI needs more customization anyway, and user-defined colors would be a good start towards user-defined controls.

    completely agree there, I for one would love to change the colors to suit myself, the default colors are not in the way I like them to be.

    I can tell the difference, but they are both types of blue. The old color (or rather the color for those on your FL now) stands out a lot more than a different shade amongst tons of faction chat.

    It is the developers who write the program code and create the patches which change, add or remove content. NOT Gm's.
