    I like the first style, since I think it gives a better oversight and it makes me remember the old C editor for dos (i.e. Turbo C++) which used about the same colours!
    Do it by the book, but be the author!

    Everyone also please note if you prefer italisized comments or not (since they will already be highlighted), I've found some hard to read in the various code sections around the forums and think non-italisized ones might work better.

    Also you can have bold for each highlighted item, or even [glow=#80ff65]glowing text[/glow]!

    By the way, Bluecat, your glowing text only works in Internet Explorer.

    Well that's one reason to use MS software, if only I could think of another one :lol:

    Wow, this is really unsuspected... so no one has any trouble reading a huge code section like the last post in this thread with the current setup? I found myself getting head-aches because of the bright on dark scheme. But if that's what the majority wants, and it doesn't change by the end of the poll I guess well keep it. I can always copy and paste the code into Delphi if I really need to read any of it.

    P.S. If you haven't voted please do, we have over 80 forum members but only 12 votes...

    I originally voted for the original scheme, but I was wondering if we couldn't have something more similar to Delphi's default scheme, i.e. white background, black text, blue comments, etc. I can't stand a grey background though.
