OK, I give

OK, I have changed the colors to a simple black text on a light grey background. This should work for all.
[I refuse to use a white background on aesthetic reasons. Like blue-jeans, it's simple so omnipresent that it crosses both borders of Boring and enters, almost, "irritating". Maybe that's just me. I haven't worn blue jeans (I have no other problems with other colors of jeans) for 40 years and I've never designed a site with a white background. Also a light grey background is more readable, for me and I think studies show it too.]

Btw, I agree that the wide margins are silly. But my HTML knowledge is limited, and I can't find the setting in the template which determines this...

  1. What say you increase the font size a point or two. Otherwise it look good for me.

  2. "OK, I give". You're not giving up EO, you're just graciously accepting suggestions from your loyal fan club.

  3. Yes, I did suspect that the font is a step smaller than the last template I used. But the problem is I also cannot find any setting to change this!

    Maybe the template is a poor choice, but there are very few of them which are simple and elegant.

  4. This works just fine for the eyes: most comfortable reading.

  6. Okay, I liked it the way it was but this is good too. Your thing against blue jeans is a bit weird, though, E.

  7. Funny, nobody ever tells me anything about me is "too normal"...

    It's just a personal taste. I don't think less of people who wear blue jeans. Well, at least not if they are country singers. :-)
