Thanks for going out of your way to find the comment box and let me know. I know it’s a self-centered thing to say, but dark-on-light is hard for me to read (the white “swallows” the black lines up), and hurts my eyes — that’s why the site is this way. I tried to ensure that the contrast of the site is sufficient for most users, including colorblind users.

That said, the site is designed with accessibility in mind. There are two options available for your immediate comfort:

  • The site has a fluid layout and relative font sizing, so feel free to increase the font size (press CTRL and +; CTRL and - reduces the font size again).
  • The site uses Cascading Stylesheets. Under Firefox and Opera, you have the option of viewing the site with stylesheets turned off (or with your own, custom stylesheet).

Sorry you found the site hard to read.

I have to look VERY close to read anything. The only reason I even looked around was to find the comment box to suggest you lighten up the colors. Dave I can hardly read the site.
