Why is it so.....

Re: Why is it so.....

My profile is a good example of good usage of repeated images.. take a look. Does it irk you a lot?

It irks me, but not so much as the people who decide they want this (but smaller) for a repeated image:

If people didn't want their profiles to be read, they would make it private only to those on their friend list, or outright close their profiles. I don't think camouflaging text is supposed to be some deterrent, because there are better ways of having people not read your profile.

Some people don't think of that, trust me. You'd think they would, but many people don't....from the few people I've encountered on other sites and a few on FFR that I asked "Why, it's annoying..." that's the answer they gave me. They don't really care if people read, but it's a deterrent. One such response was "So only people who actually cared what I have to say would read it."

The complete lack of logic that response had confused me. Even if I didn't have to highlight it, I'd only read if I cared what you had to say. :V

But about people who do this, I haven't even seen so many of these profiles to be honest. Only about 4-5.... >_>

Lol, in your example my eyes liked the original page before clicking the link that switched the colors.

Guessing once you changed the site you felt some eye tension?

Also reading a dark page at night [presuming you're from CA] and switching to a bright one would hurt your eyes regardless. =P

That or you aren't human.
