Hey all, Reverse color text (white text on a black background) seems to come up in our discussions from time to time, and usually someone chimes in that it's less readable. However, I know quite a few programmers who switch their editors to a reverse color scheme due to eyestrain, including myself. And the statement that reading black text on a white screen "is like looking at ants on a lightbulb" has always rung true with me.
So, here's a little research on the subject: http://www.joedolson.com/articles/2006/08/on-the-readability-of-inverted-color-schemes/ According to the study, the readability is the same either way so long as the type is adjusted correctly, and it comes down to personal preference. Just thought I would share that and see if anyone has thoughts.
