Comments in Creative review are grey on a dark grey background and difficult to read as a result. Is there a way to make the colours more readable?

That seems to be happening to anything that is formatted/markdown right?  
Only the bullet points in your case.

Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for the reply. Good spot, yes it does appear to be markdown formatted notes that are darker. Is this a feature or a bug?

Cheers

I mean its likely a stylesheet issue on the SG Creative Review side.  
So It’s a bug or something that needs to be tweaked.
