Dood, you are a typical troll!
URMax, you should click the links and do your homework before
creating a new account to post your caustic remark.
Some people are afflicted with debilitating
migraines or
epilepsy.
A well known
aura that precedes these debilitating episodes or seizures can be triggered by certain
visual stimulus including flicker or color patterns. Just recently, before this new software was installed, there was actually a post from an epileptic discussing this very thing. That post includes a link to a www test page
webaccessibile.org/test/check.aspx which goes to show how serious a subject this is.
I posted a reference to that epileptic person's post in
this very thread. But it was repeatedly deleted:
Some of those colors/patterns are known to provoke ocular migraine auras and worse. See the OP and link in this thread: Win 7 RC and RTM
On the other hand, some of those patterns are very pretty. The developers tried to make something nice for us. Thanks! ...but it gives me a headache!
Notice that Ronnie moved this thread to this forum nearly 20 minutes
after I had
already started the new thread here in exasperation.
Well. This post got Reported as Abusive. I think it was done by a
cowardly troll who posted above with a brand new
alias profile.
