Probably a case of a need for monitor calibration, could the link colors possibly be a bit more .. less subtle ? I keep missing them :/
spot the link in the attached png. You kinda have to look for it ;)

I think you need a new monitor links look blue to me. :)
You can also change the css styles for your links if you install a firefox plugin... forgot what its called.

Don't get me wrong, it's blue but it's not a 'blue blue' .. kinda dark blue and my 85 year old eyes can't distinguish the links from body text :(

I can usually pick the links out but it is a bit harder than it needs to me. My vision sucks.

I always underline my links for exactly this reason (… (…)).
Underlining them would really help. This is really only essential inside post bodies.

^ I always underline my links too. I really wish links were underlined.
I think there was a thread about links being underlined by default, but Kirupa (I think.) shot it down for some reason.

Yeah, I remember that thread too. I think I made it like three years ago.

I don't think it was three years, because I think I posted on it, and I joined in 2006.

Okay. It was a long time ago.

I think underlines are a good idea.

Notably, the Wikipedia tag makes underlined links, so apparently Kirupa thought that underlined links were a good idea when he made that tag.

Why would you need to link anywhere else?

how about a dotted line that goes away on hover.
Either way, I don't really care I would just love to have the links a bit more visible in the default theme. Please? :(

Make them lime green. And blinky. I love blinky.
But seriously some underlinage would be nice K-man.

Switch to the Canada theme. I can pick those links out like a hawk.

For now, I have switched. But my footer is a million times uglier in this theme. Fix it!
