Not sure if this is something I am supposed to set when I do a quote, or whether it is set up by the forum gods, but the colors are extremely difficult to read. There should definitely be more contrast. If we're going to go with the gold-ish text, the background needs to be much darker. Otherwise, we could set the text itself darker and leave the background the crazy bright color that it is.
I have tried many ways to change it in the backend of the system without any results. The best way I have found is to change the color of the text with the editor when you make the post.
