Altered for Readability
For a while now, I have known that the design I created for this site was not really working. My intention was to draw from the color palette of the Earth in space, but what I got was a blog that was very hard to read. I have dragged my feet for a while, casting about for a better design, when I received a class action lawsuit from Jon Edwards suing me for destroying the eyesight of my readers. So I have modified the blog to be much more readable, at least as an interim step to a new design.

Thanks. Saves me having to drag the mouse over the page to select the text so I can read it.
Your new version is fine (on Firefox).

Call me oblivious, but I hadn’t noticed that your blog was particularly hard to read. However, readability is always a good thing to shoot for.

I noticed it right away. And since I was one of the people who pinged Warren on the matter, I’m glad he took the issue to heart. Pre-Mac computer screens used to be a highly unreadable white text on a black background, which the Macintosh remedied, and is now SOP on all computers. I find the new format to be much more readable. Thanks, Warren!
