When I click to check my Replies, it is hard to tell the difference between the Bold items and the others. Is there any way to make them more bold or the the other font less thick?

It is also impossible to read the blue font that some people are using in their signatures.

It would be cool if the replies could be bold and a different color, just my opinion.

Click on the "replies" button and see the bold thread titles vs the non bold titles. I think the non bolded title's font is just a little too thick.

On the electric blue signatures, they just don't show up on the gray background.

No, Matt's perfectly correct. There is not enough visible change between the two.

The difference can be discerned, but you literally have to stare at each one, line by line. With black on white text it just pops out at a glance from top to bottom.

It's never going to be easy to make that happen with white font. The edges are always going to lack a bit of crispness in comparison. Making it harder to discern bold from regular font. It's also much harder to see italics fwiw...

Perhaps making the already read threads a shade of grey to move them a bit closer to the background and really let the unread threads pop with the white bold text.

Exactly..... This is especially hard to see on the typical laptop on which I spend most of my time.
