Now that everyone likes it, we can start complaining that Scott's avatar is still blue. ;):lol:

Reload the page, Carla. Scott has a new avatar. Once you see it, you will be glad it is NOT green. LOL.

The olive green is much better! Thanks, Scott!

My only other suggestion would be to make the print larger and darker for the many here who have vision problems. Even those of us without vision problems would appreciate it!

Thanks again.

Definitely getting eye strain with the new colors. On the bright side, this will keep me off this site at work. :P

It's all green and I don't have to use the lo-fi version anymore.

Thanks, Scott!

One problem for me is when I do a search, the box with the page number I'm looking at is only a very slightly darker shade of white than the rest that I can't tell what page I'm on so when I try to go to the next page I don't know which one to click. I'm sure we're all jumping at you with all these sugestions before you have a fair chance to get it all done. Thanks.

Yeah, I find myself about two inches from the screen because the font is so small and light, and I'm only 23, it's not like I need reading glasses. I'm sure I'll get used to the other stuff, and the darker greenis much more pleasant, but the small font is giving me a headache.

Each of you can adjust your own font size in your browser--

1) In IE click on the "Page" drop down, then select "Text Size." You can also zoom in and out to make everything larger.

2) In Firefox click the "View" drop down, the select "Text Size."

Each browser allow you to adjust these.

I hope this helps...

Take care,

Scott

Hmm I can't verify this, as I surf w/ a Sidekick, but doesn't this then make every other site's font too big?

I haven't heard of a 'Save Settings by Domain' feature in a browser.

Not real computer savey here.

I went to view - text size and the list of Gluten Free Items (on the left margin) got bigger, but the post page is the same. My e-mail is also larger as I changed the setting. Post pages remain the same.

Me too.

Scott, is there a reason the default font size is now size 1? (For those following along, previously it was 2.)

Also the link to the board rules/guidelines is missing. I know that we can always use a refresher reading those so I hope that it is put back into place so folks don't forget the manner in which we should behave here at glutenfreeforum.com .

Since the change, I have noticed a difference in the way hyperlinks work. When I post a hyperlink, not only is it not blue (this was also true before the upgrade), it is not underlined. The underline will only show when I mouse over the text where I put the link. So now I have to hilight the text, make it underlined, and make it blue. Not a huge deal, but I like to use a lot of links in my posts :huh: If I don't specifically say "this is a link" people might not know one was there.

Is this by design, or an I doing something wrong?

Other than that, I like the new look. I am already used to it.

Thanks Scott,

I'm beginning to appreciate the changes already. Green is my favorite color. :)

The first shade of green was way too bright for my eyes...the new shade is much better!

Thanks for increasing the font size as well. :)

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
