When you go into settings(https://hubski.com/pref?id=reddirecpthoo) there is a "zen mode" which changes the hub wheel, this may or may not help but it's worth a shot. :)

zen wheel is also the same color

Hmmm, do you know what video card you have?

I read some video cars have a colour swapping feature for colour blind people.

Couldn't find anything like that for my setup.

But I managed to figure out an alternative. Downloaded the sprite hubski uses, photoshopped it to more my liking, and now I'm using it with Stylus/Stylebot

        img[class*='point'] {
        background-image: url('http://i.imgur.com/CG7Shda.png');
        }

If you use a Webkit browser (Safari, Chrome or Epiphany), you can also use hue-rotate to swap the colors without using your own image. This will turn the clicked wheel into a purple color, for example:

    -webkit-filter: hue-rotate(90deg);
As far as I know, this is unsupported in Gecko as of now, so there's no equivalent `-moz-filter` property for Firefox.

Does that work well for you? If so, I'd be happy to make a color-blind friendly toggle in preferences based on it.

yeah it works perfect for me, like @Meriadoc above said, slight darkening of the unshared is precisely what was needed. A color-blind option would be super!

What are the sprites in the column left of the badges? Were they ever used?

Go to settings and turn 'zen' on.

sounds_sound designed them.

I noticed that the current zen .pngs are the first ones that I sent you that look like gears rather than lotus flowers. Perhaps an update reset them? No biggie...

mk  ·  3569 days ago  ·  link  ·  

You are right. It is a biggie. I fixed it. Although you might need to clear your cache to see the switch.

Beauty.

They're great! Since when do we have them? I recall that zen mode would just fill all the hubwheels up.
