I agree - I think that the 'high-contrast version' is actually MUCH harder to read than the original version. Not only is 'black-on-white' thought to be one of the optimum styles for reading (so, 'high-contrast' seems a misnomer) but studies have shown that a variation of light gray is easiest to read on a black background. -- Marty

In other words there's no point in implementing this feature unless you're prepared to spend time testing/improving it. ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
