Underline links

Can we please have links in users’ posts underlined? It’s awkward enough that they’re almost exactly the same colour as normal text. Again and again I see users unable to realise there’s a link been posted because they just can’t discern it. Let us have this little bit of accessibility at least.

Cheers.

Although I don't think links are almost invisible, I do support this idea. Website usability FTW!

I hate links with their little underliningness. I dunno why, I just do.

I can see the links fine, but it always helps to have visibility.

I concur. Are you using the Industrial style, Wil? They come up fine in Native.

Disability? Please, reveal to me where anyone mentioned a disability...

Max is just annoyed that the links don't look much different from the text as times, which is true. It doesn't mean he's blind or anything, ya goose.

It's really hard to see in the industrial skin, so don't make jokes Moxco, everyone knows they aint funny.
I'd like an underliney too, it would be of a lot of assistance, thanks!

I don't have a problem with links on industrial. I actually think underlined links are untidy. What about [B] them instead?

I find links in industrial easer to read than in native.
