Thread: Changing WebSite Colors in Your Browser

If you don't like a websites color scheme you can change this in your browser, for this thread we are using internet explorer as my firefox is in Thai for some reason and I can't be bothered trying to find out why.

So first off open internet explorer, goto your favourite page, click tools, internet options, general tab and you have this as in the picture, the 2 bits we are interested in are "Accessibility" and "Colors".



Click on "Accessibility" and check the box "Ignore colors specified on webpages", now click ok.
This bit you can also change the size you want to view fonts in, ie if you wear coke bottle glasses and want the fonts bigger click the ignore font sizes and somewhere is a choice of how big or gigantic you want them.



Now the fun bit, you get to choose a color for the text and background, also links visited and unvisited, uncheck the use windows colors box, then click on what bits you want to change the colors to, ie in this picture the text has a black box so the text will be black, click the black box and the color chart pops up and choose a lovely new color for the text, also same for background etc, just each time you like a color click "OK".






Some lovely color schemes you can choose.







To change the fonts shown on a webpage just Click on "Accessibility" and check the box "Ignore colors specified on webpages", now click ok, now click tools, internt options, on the general tab at the bottom is your fonts button, click that, go for latin based and choose a nice style font, as you choose each font it shows you an example in the bottom right hand side box, if you like it just click "OK".
