How to change color of thread

[ukcyberboy]

Hi All
As a new boy here I wanted to ask if there was a setting that I can turn on so I can have a different colour of a thread that I have read so I can go through all of them twice.
Mods if this is the wrong place please move it.

When you've not read a thread, it is viewed in bold....Once the screen has been refreshed, the threads that you have read (the bold ones) are in regular font

Hope that makes sense Or have i confused things even more?

No you haven't confused me, just came here and as a member at Canon forum I see a darker colour.
When I read a thread here I have underlined headers and nothing bold, they are in normal text, using firefox, maybe just me.

Can I just add this only works if you dont use the "back" button to go from reading the thread back to the forum.:bang:
Use the "jump to forum" at the bottom or click on the blue link at the top, e.g in here: Talk Phototgraphy > Photography discussion > Talk basics

Ah, tried that just long winded when you looking back a long way like me.
I will just have to enjoy all the old posts twice

It depends on browsers. Safari on my Macs keep the read/unread status up to date when I use the back button to go back. However, Firefox on my work laptop does no do this.
