Using your analogy Alex - I can't hear the "Mosquito" (Hoodie mover) so therefore all those who can must have a hearing problem.

i cant hear it either, and no that's different that sound works because the ears of younger people can pick up higher frequencies

I think that people should stop trying to blame people's eyesight.

There are just some colour combinations that even people with perfect vision will struggle to see.

I've dug back through the past ten issues, and have found one feature that we should have been more careful on. It was a freelance design piece, as it turns out, so I'm having a chat with the external designers we used just to tighten this back up a little.

Thanks for all the feedback on this thread.

Thank you for taking this seriously, Simon, it is much appreciated.

I have no doubt we will now see an improvement in the next few weeks.

Many thanks!

i appologise for bringing this back up but...

origionally i defended the magazine mainly in my last post on this thread but this weeks mag, received yesterday, has promted me to re-post. 

the first article about ISP's, very good by the way, the colour scheme which is black on blue isn't ideal even though it isn't too bad but the actual print quality is terrible in at least my copy and i would guess this is the same as everyone else's.  the letters seem blurry as if there is a ghost of each letter very slightly of centre which makes it uncomfortable to read.  i am sure it is a print error and not the author or editor's fault however the fact remains that it confirms to an extent the origional posters probelm, admittedly not through the colour scheme mainly but just quality.

i posted this as i believe in being fair to both sides of an argument if applicable.

Mine is fine, no problems at all.

fair enough, maybe just my copy.  i thought it should be brought up in this thread as i wanted to be fair to both sides of the debate if applicable.
