Dark backgrounds with light text is so much easier on the eyes.... IANA opthamologist (nor am I sure I can spell it right, or even if it's the right word), but its a lot easier to look at light text on dark backgrounds. If I had to guess, I'd say we read black ink on white paper because white ink that didn't soak in/disappear into black paper was too expensive or difficult to make...and since that's the way it's always been, people think that black text on white background is the way its supposed to be. Anyways, I liked the gray background, but i'll be just as happy with any light text on darker background. That's my vote. Adam __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
