I noticed that the color schemes have changed. Would you consider implementing a dark mode? The bright background hurts my eyes and makes me not want to use the site...

also 5% of men are red green colour blind for those of you that saw little miss sunshine, have a medical background, or know this stuff. Medical journals implemented the use of magenta instead of red many years ago because of this. How about that Posted Image.

Lucky they chose red-black suits all those years ago rather than red-green. Would have been a bit unfair

Sadly I thought Bridgebase dark mode may have been about something a bit more subversive than colo(u)r schemes

They also seem to have broken the 'Remember me' mechanism - I have it ticked but I am asked to login every time.
No problem if this is a security choice, but in that case what does 'Remember me' do?

There's been no change there, you've always had to login. The checkbox just makes it auto-fill your username and password.

It won't work if you have your browser configured to clear cookies and site data when you exit the browser.

Ok, probably I just notice the login more because of the new graphics.

I think the username and password fields are bigger than they used to be.

At risk of being controversial, I noticed that one of the women is using a MacBook Air🙂. Is this advertising? Feel free to delete this post.

Sir,The easy solution for those who dislike white background is to reduce the brightness.I have HEARD that an application is available for getting dark mode.Personally.I feel a dark background is not worthwhile to have.
