GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 353009
links should be blue (or follow system colours)
Last modified: 2007-11-12 22:20:16 UTC
the web links in the Gnome About dialog really should be blue (or whatever colour is specified by the system) to make it clearer that they are in fact links. opening up an external web link always takes significantly longer than other actions such as opening a dialog within the same program. also an internet connection may not even be available which makes it important to clearly identify web links so the user can avoid wasting time.
gnome-about has been rewritten in python. This bug is fixed now. See bug 481585 for more details.
