Code is hard to see

With the editor having a black background the code is very hard to see, also the code isn't white so that makes it even harder. What is others doing, I was trying to work through "Build a simple web site" but can not do and in turn had to cancel my membership, even though I really like this training. I have a screen shot but do not know how to post it

> I have a screen shot but do not know how to post it

When trying to post screenshots (or other images) to forum the most common issue, is trying to link to an image on your local computer. That won't work, you need to upload the image to the Internet.

One of the easiest ways to do that is to use an image hosting service like imgur.com.

Now you just need to link to the image in the forum using markdown ![alt text](http://example.com/path/to/img.jpg "Title")

I felt the black screen of the new Sublime Text to be a bit jarring at first, but now I like it and wouldn't have it any other way.

As for being hard to read... have you tried downloading the high resolutions MP4 videos? The detail is much better than the videos that stream on the website. I was having some trouble speed reading the code in "Build a Simple Website", but once I downloaded the high-res vids I had no issues.

If any Treehouse staff are reading this, please consider adding the option to download all the high-res MP4 videos for a chapter in one click. Currently you have to download the videos separately, which can be a pain. Same goes for project files.

Thanks
