Personal kvetch and problem. It came up with the other post and I thought to finally ask here. I am red/green color blind. The two colors tend to look alike to me. And usually I can not distinguish between black and red. So when I get the information fill in highlighted red areas, I have to go get someone to tell me where they are. Is there some way we can have a choice of warning colors? Yellow or purple would work for me. Can AW help those of us with this disability? (Red green is the most common form of color blindness, and almost all color blind people are male.) Really would appreciate some help here. Dale

I suffer from the same affliction, although in a mild form (I don't usually have too much trouble with our error texts.) I'll see if there's anything simple we can do to accomodate this.

Thank you. I usually don't have trouble either but I could not see the red that was being refered to. And had to go get someone to help me find it. Usually this is not a problem for me. But all of a sudden the tone change between the red and green was not enough. It is like those sites that have red words on a black background---I can't see a thing. Maybe just a choice in colors like say blue and yellow which I see perfectly as an option. Hope you can come up with something, Dale
