<p>The new version is just too effing bright. My eyes, my eyes !!!</p>

62

<p>Is it only my computer, or has everybody elses colors changed to this lighter blue.</p>

<p>I really don’t like it.</p>

63

<p>I just started a thread on this in the parent forums I should have looked here first. I agree, I hate it, way too bright!</p>

<p>Just changed it back Yippee Skippy!</p>

64

<p>The new colors are harder on the eyes.</p>

65

<p>You are not alone. Go here:

<p>You can back to the old colors.</p>

66

<p>I just changed mine back. For anybody who does not know, you can go to the bottom left corner, pull down the tab and hit CC. You’ll be back in a flash</p>

<p>INVENIAMVIAM - thanks for the quick style change tip. The other way was jarring to my nerves. I’m “too old” for that other one! ;)</p>

68

<p>When I logged in this morning the new screen colors came up. I was not happy as I thought I was going to have to change the setting every time; but once I went to My Control Panel to check my subscriptions, all when back to the original.</p>

69

<p>Didn’t like the new layout and colors so I went back to the old shell.</p>

70

<p>Me too. I felt blinded by all those light colors.</p>

71

<p>I changed back also–too bad Newsweek isn’t as easy to fix or as sensitive to its readers’ reactions.</p>

72

<p>Wonder if the new colors bother the kids less than the adults.</p>

73

<p>Well that’s a relief…another old schooler. Thanks for the tip.</p>

74

<p>Just click on CC, which I guess stands for “curmudgeon colors” or perhaps “codger configuration.” (I changed back, too.)</p>

75

<p>Took me all of two minutes before deciding to change it back.</p>

76

<p>I HATE these colors. Your eyeballs will hate them as well after you stare at these forums at night with no lights on…</p>

77

<p>i still can’t figure out how to change it back. . .bottom left hand corner?? i don’t see a CC. maybe it’s the blinding colors. please help!</p>

78

<p>Thanks so much for the tip. What a relief that I don’t have a computer problem.</p>

79

<p>Hate the new colors and already switched back…</p>

<p>Scroll way down and you should see something called “quick style chooser.” Choose CC from the drop down menu … Actually, you may see the word “Fresh” – choose CC instead.</p>
