Blogger's New Design Causes Eyestrain

I was quite excited when Blogger announced their new dashboard and editor design.  It is now available in draft mode (draft.blogger.com) so I have been testing both out.  For the most part I do like the new designs.  They are slicker and cleaner.  I posted earlier about a few of their buttons that are now a pale grey with white font.  These are almost impossible to read!  Until yesterday I was only doing a couple of posts so had not had the opportunity to do multiple posts or layout changes.  Writing the actual posts in the editor is fine.  It's a couple of buttons that's the problem but once you get used to the what the unreadable buttons are, you can get around fairly easy.  The layout page is also a bit more difficult to read with some buttons again being unreadable.  After working for a couple of hours yesterday my eyes were burning and stinging from the eye strain and I had developed a pounding headache.  I do hope they correct this annoying problems!  Oh and there is a glitch in the schedule feature too as it will push the post ahead a day later than you intended so if using schedule be aware of that.  I also don't like the new drop down menus under schedule.  They are hard to read and involve a lot of clicking adding to the eyestrain issue.
