Hi everyone:

Can people who have web access take a look at the URL
in the header and let me know if they find it easy to read
in terms of visual aspects and what type of browser they are using.


I've hada complaint that it is black text on a blue ground and that
"noone could possibly read it."

No one includes myself, my brother and my ywo housemates, as well as several
collegues. ;)

I'd like more opinions to get an idea if it's worth switching to a paler
shade of blue.

My feeling is that the difficulty lies with the complainants browser settings
and prefernces!  Or maybe her screen is not set on high contrast and with
enough light, ie some kinda monitor problem.

I don't mind fixing it but it's the first complain on the new look I've had
and i'm wondering if it's an outlier that, if i fix it to suit her i'm
wrecking it for others.  I didn't want a screamingly garish contrast as it
gives some people headaches to look at a page that looks too vibrant.

Ideas? Kudos?  Brickbats?

:-)
