Help For Dyslexic Users?

[wild whippies]

One of the forums I usually visit has just made an option available to change the background colour of their site to a yellow colour which apparently makes reading easier?

Just wondered if anyone who is dyslexic has tried this and does it help?

I have tryed to put this on to my computer but it will not let me.

Want it says on this site is right ie if its italic i cant read it as well as if it was bold.

Alot of people are dyslexic and no one talks about it.

spell checkers good for normal peoepl haveing probelms with words but there no use for disolexsics as we dont know if we can or carnt spell a word and if were given a list of words we dont know whitch one we want. the colour backgrounds do work but its doffernt colours help differnt people I have pink tinted reading glasses at home which help me but on when reading black and white

Wendy I think you do very well, and can alway's understand what you are saying :thumbsup: I think it does help a normal reader to know that you are dyslexic though. It certainly makes me concentrate on reading what you say a little more carefully
