I am color blind.

About 10% of the male population suffers from this condition. Usually I manage to work around with this limitation but I found something in your software that made me want to write about this.

On the Win Rate pop up of the HUD there's this one stat (Winnings) that I always see as black. All of this time I thought this was a bug on the software, that it always show the winnings as +.

Yesterday I was reviewing some sessions with my brother and we looked at a guy's winrate and I told him about the "bug" that the software had. He told me that it shows the correct value, but it was RED. I can't see the red and I'm sure there may be more users with the same problem.

This is a very minor inconvenience, but it would be nice if you'd take this into consideration. Color blind people have trouble distinguishing the black from the red fonts. I can think of two possible solutions:

Use () or - for negative values
Set the font to BOLD. This usually makes it much easier to distinguish for us.


I hope this is taken into consideration for future development. It will be very much appreciated.

Thanks
Alfredo

Thx man. As it happens I'm just working on being able to change the popup text color. I'll make losses ($1,000) in red.
