Margo, welcome to NT! Glad to have you aboard.

I have Epilepsy, and am triggered easily by flashing ads online... I really hate them. When I was first started seizing, and then was dx'ed, I had an armless puter chair, and that had to change in a hurry. At least now I wouldn't hit the floor! But the icons used here have no effect on me whatsoever. For me, at least, I think the difference might be the colors.... there are no neons here, no truly bright ones. Everything is either muted or pastel. Plus, the movements are mainly very slow, nothing that really gets the eyes to hopping.

I went to the headaches forum, and noticed quickly that no one there seems to use the icons at all. I had no idea they can trigger migraines, might be why I have had more recently... hmmmm.

Again, welcome... and thanks for starting out with a tidbit of knowledge I needed to hear.

P.S. I love the icons, I admit it. Those cute little faces really brighten up a post.
