Complaining about Design

hunsonisgroovy:

Please please please choose a font color that is readable. I cannot emphasize that enough. I want to read your posts, but if your font color is too simliar to your background color, I’m not going strain my eyes trying to see what you have to say.

Pink on Red is not okay. 
Olive Green on Black is not okay.
Lemon Yellow on Orange is not okay. (Orange is such a gross color anyways)
  • Don’t use a “fancy” or “decorative” font for your body copy. Reading large chucks of text in a script font is torturing.
  • Over kerning = barf
  • Using more than 3 fonts for a web page is disorienting because I can’t tell if it’s a header or some kind of special link.
Okay. That’s it. I can’t think of anymore. I’m hungry.

Hope you like what I managed to knock up
