Skin for origin?

Jericho.u.k · 24 Dec 2012 at 19:44

Hey all
My brother got origin today as there was a game he specifically wanted.
What im asking is : is there any way to either change the colour or skin of the origin client as my brother is very short sighted and has his windows in high contrast mode and he is having trouble seeing origin properly.

Thanks in advance and merry xmas all

I really don't think so, considering the bloody UI in game didn't have a clock for months... I doubt it will happen any time soon.

Does he not use glasses?

He uses a handheld monocular mate but his eyesight is getting worse every year. Last time it was checked a few months back it was 1:60 which in case you dont know means he can see something at 1 foot away which a normal person would see at 60 feet away. He has been told he is going totally blind and its horrible to see him suffer to see things on his pc (bloody skype since having to ditch msn comes to mind) and just wanted to make life as easy as possible for him while he can still see.

Thanks for your reply though mate

60 feet? Deary me.

Maybe a cure will occur in the next few decades if not years, Eyesight retrieval seems to be quite ahead.

That would be my xmas wish mate. Needs to happen in the next year though.
Id happily donate 1 or even both my eyes as ive had almost 40 years of sight whereas my brother was born partially sighted and its just got worse.

maybe lower the desktop res so the text is bigger?

Doesnt help mate.
After all these years we tried everything and now high contrast is the only thing that helps. Most programs are fine but alas some are not
