It is a bit difficult to distinguish posts and replies

Hi,
I am very new on this forum but it seems this is a great forum with really helpful people and I believe it will grow in time. After reading my threads again, I noticed that I've missed some of the replies since the color scheme of the forum makes it difficult to distinguish posts. I don't know if it is only me but if you could use a different color for post titles or backgrounds, it will be easier to follow replies.
Thank you!
Nail

I can certainly tweak the style a little.
I'm not really sure how the colours have an effect, would a bit more space between replies help ?

You know, everything is blueish on the forum. A bit more space will certainly help. Different reply title color or different reply background color could also be tested.
Thanks.

Well I will do some investigating and see how easy it will be to change.

Okay there is now 10px of space between replies instead of 4px, is that any better ?
I tried adding a dark border around each one, but it made the rounded corners look weird.

I think it works totally fine as it is.

I think the avatars themselves make a pretty good distinction between posts. If you added some sort of default avatar, it would make life easier for everyone

I don't think phpbb has that option unfortunately.
