Thank you Jordan 🙂

Your commit also made it easy to identify the css for controlling this. I played around with both full colour, and fully hidden avatars, and after speaking with a few colleagues we’ve decided to go with fully hidden.

For anyone who wants to make changes to go full colour or fully hidden avatar, just add the following as a [theme component](https://meta.discourse.org/t/make-css-changes-on-your-site/168101#where-do-i-add-my-css-5):

#### Fully Hide Avatars

```plaintext
.reader-mode {
    .topic-avatar img,
    .topic-avatar .avatar-flair {
    opacity: 0;
    transition: opacity 0.3s;
    filter: none;
  }
}

```

#### Show Avatars full colour

```plaintext
.reader-mode {
    .topic-avatar img,
    .topic-avatar .avatar-flair {
    opacity: 1;
    transition: opacity 0.3s;
    filter: none;
  }
}

```

### Font size is not persistent in settings slider

One Colleague also found that when we click out of the font-size settings, and then go back to it, the slider’s setting is not persistent.

Not a major issue, but worth noting if it hasn’t been seen yet.

p.s. when showing them the font style dropdown, the response was “wow, no comic sans 😤” 😂
