Title: Is anyone else suffering as I am...?
Post by: B E C K on Apr 25, 2006, 10:40:53 PM
....with a-holes who can't bother to specify their page and font colors?  Why must it be a crime to want a default black page with white font?  Worst, sometimes they half-specify so I'll get black letters on my default black color or default white on a white-specified page.


From a school page:

Looking up the defintion of a word w/ Google.  I even changed my text to a light gray so I could better see any white-on-white pages without changing my font color to something too dark.  How dare you make me compromise.

The human eye has more trouble distinguishing shades of the colour blue than any other. If that was red you'd be set.

Green is the color most recognizable to the human eye. Green and black is the way to go.

Red on black was the prefered colour of pretty much every pr0n site around the turn of the millenium.

why would you want to force the INTERNET into black and white?  You brought this on yourself!

Post by: B E C K on Apr 26, 2006, 08:51:41 AM
If anything, the people who don't specify colors are forcing the Internet to be black and white, because they assume people will just have a white default background and a black font.

I'm actually trying to figure out what colors to use for my website... besides red, black, and green which will make it look like I'm celebrating Christmas year round or I'm trying to start a pr0n site.

light on dark works for me.  It's easier on the eyes to read, say, white on black than black on white.

I suck at matching colors and graphic design, so I cheated by going with an existing combination: on my Evangelion site (http://www.shwiggie.com/eva/), I made the whole thing evoke the Unit 01 by going with dark purple background, white lettering, orange links, and neon green highlights and borders.  When it came time to do a forum (http://forums.shwiggie.com) skin, I just adapted it for the sake of having something different.  IMO, it works well.

Here are some tips on color (http://www.newark1.com/color/000055.html), despite the author posting it on a site with gray text on white background  :angry:

Yeah I've found just find something you like as a colour scheme and tweak that to your liking. I mean it doesn't really have to be another web page. Find a CD case you think is nice and copy that if you want.

Yes, I want a quickie too....



.......what?



Here's the other thing I want to figure out, is a theme for the site. I wouldn't mind sticking a few anime pics in the site, but I want this site to look semi-professional for future employers.

It will never look semi-professional with anime pictures.

Yeah, you could take pretty much anything.  The whole blue/orangey thing happening with the default skin here was all based on that one image of the bananas.

Or... I AM SO FUCKING BUFF!!! I GET PUSSY ALL THE TIME!

I don't do that anymore.
And, please next time you are going to talk about something, first do your damn research. the maxim party was not on campus, and i was invited causei was a fucking model, not cause "i like to drink".

I really want my site to look like something that would be worthy of the CSS Zen Garden (http://www.mezzoblue.com/zengarden/alldesigns/), but most of those sites are done by professional web design companies, and I'm broke.
