I hate the color Black! Change the color scheme! I cannot read it!

Is that a question?

I have lost plenty of sleep and spent many hours to get the site accessible to everyone that wishes to visit. I have no code, that I am aware of, that forces you to view the domain as I intended.

I feel it is best to offer the viewer to choose how a domain looks, not the webmaster.

You can take the following steps to adjust your viewing pleasure:

Change the color and look of the domain

Without cookies and JavaScript:

If you are lucky enough to use Netscape or the open source Mozilla, you can change the Black color scheme to what ever you chose by selecting Edit --> Preferences --> Appearance --> Colors.

If you are using IE of any flavor you can choose Tools --> General Tab --> Accessibility button and check:

  • Ignore colors specified on Web pages

You can even go so far as to do the following, however, some content may be obscured due to positioning of the elements.

  • Ignore font styles specified on Web pages
  • Ignore font sizes specified on Web pages

Using Cookies and JavaScript:

Another option for all browser users, if you allow your browser to accept cookies and use JavaScript, is to Choose the look: Black or White now.

Change the size of the text

You can also adjust the size of the text for you resolution and monitor size by selecting View --> Text Size, View --> Text Zoom, or View --> Zoom depending on your browser and increase / decrease as necessary.

Adjust the font style, links, colors, etc

The font style (Arial / sans-serif) was also chosen by selecting one that "looked exactly the same" in both IE, Netscape, Mozilla, and Opera. You can change the "default" font to what ever you wish in your browser's options, as well as whether or not hyperlinks are a particular color or even always underlined.

"Have you tweaked your OS lately?"

Choose the look:
Black or White
