I saw a webpage with so many fast-moving objects and such bright backgrounds, my right eye hurt and my guts convulsed?! I'm kind of amused, horrified, aaaand bringing the backlight down on my screen, thanks. I get that it's an aesthetic for some people, but please don't make that your index page, have a splash page with a warning it's not friendly for photosensitive and epileptic individuals, please!

It triggered my photosensitivity even though I haven't had any sort of seizure at all since I was a kid. It could've been far worse for an epileptic individual who has painful seizures from fast/flickering/bright or high contrast images and moving patterns.

(I had painless absence seizures or petit mal seizures, they just kinda made me forget everything and lie kind of limply there while everything seemed too bright to focus and the sounds felt distant and muddled. My photosensitivity now is restricted to just a pain behind my eyes like a small concentrated headache.

Sorry about that!! :( as a fellow photosensitive person I too wish people would be more conscientious and put warnings

I have a history of seizures too. Petit Mals but nowadays it's "migralepsy". Might be photosenstive, I don't do well with a lot of fast moving and super bright anything.

I use orange light or the "night light" setting in my computer. But sometimes yeah you just have to avoid things.

Someone mentioned a nightlight setting, I also have dark reader on by default for every new site I visit. (Not epileptic but sensory issues on my part) Is there a way to check if a splash page is too bright? ;o; Or is it a specific combo of bright + fast moving? (my splash page has no gifs for this reason!)

Yoooo, small world!!! deoxysacid from Bulbagarden?! I'm QuietDragon, the one who was drawing a ton of Bashou & Buson. ;3;
