A 'green' website is a stretch. It depends on the user's display, and how long they're on your site.
A CRT uses more power making a pixel appear white, so a black background will draw less power. A LCD on the other hand works by blocking light, not creating light. A black background will draw slightly more power. In either case, unless the window showing your site is left open, in the foreground, for a long time, by a lot of users, it won't make much difference at all. You can save lots more energy by setting your machine to hibernate after it's idle for 1 hour. In hot weather that also reduces the load on the AC. dcm On Oct 22, 5:38 am, pantagruel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I remember some time ago (like last year) there were a lot of articles > and such on making ones website design 'green' in that one could use > particular colors to make monitor energy usage low.
