Right, well.
I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE IT ABUNDANTLY CLEAR THAT I AM NOT CALLING ANYONE OUT / THIS IS NOTHING PERSONAL
Color.
It's awesome. Really, it is. In moderation, it adds flavor and makes your posts look better. However, for me personally (and I'm sure others,) coloring all the text of your posts can make it difficult to read.
That and it can get out of hand when we have people posting in every goddamn color known to man.
Look, even there it's pretty readable because it contrasts with the background for the most part.
The moral of the story is this:
1) Please post in gray, black, or white. It keeps me and probably others sane.
2) If you absolutely have to use color, make sure it contrasts heavily with the background so I don't have to select it to read it.
3) Tables are exempt because I trust people's artistic judgement when it comes to font color selection. But please don't have a deep gray table with hot pink lettering. That's just wrong.
Thanks, and happy posting!
