The colours are here to use, so it's inevitable that they will be!

I only have trouble with continuous blocks of writing with no gaps, spaced out paragraphs are easier to process.
One of the things that attracted me to WP as soon as I saw it was the blue and green background. It makes black type so much better to read.

Yes, I agree. I HATE reading enormous paragraphs with no gaps. I usually end up not reading it.

I think everything is fine as long there is enough contrast with the background, but I prefer black.

E.g. I can´t read yellow letters on light-green background.
If I want to read something like that I have to use the quote-button to prevent a headache.

I find Rainbow Posts very hard to read. They're hard on my eyes.

I don't like it when people use yellow. Its hard to read. Its worse than really long posts. I skip Neants posts. Its not as bad as an eeg. I had to look at alot of lights and it was too bright. And my eyes were closed.

Colors are going to be individual for each person whether they can read them or not easily, so I don't use them.

I do change the colors on my browser so most of the time I don't have to even worry about someone changing their colors on me, it all looks black on grey to me.

If you have trouble reading certain colours, highlighting the text may help.

I have a difficult time reading black (or grey) typing a lot of the time, so I use dark blue. It's hard for me to read anything that's not a dark color and instant messaging language. I like some decoration and uniqueness, but a single color is enough for one post, unless I'm really trying to make a point about something.


I don't like dark blue, I'm not suggesting you change it though. My problem is that certain colors look black to me. It's not my monitor, it's my eyes. And it fluctuates too, black and dark blue. The text just seems to keep changing colors. It's very distracting, but I don't mind.

Aww...that means you've skipped over sooooooo many of my rants. I alost feel insulted. A paragradh dividing them would break the flow, because my thoughts don't change enough to make it into a new paragraph.
