    AMEN!!

    And a few of us are Color Blind -
    which makes some colors almost disappear!!

    Colors with poor contrast on a white background -
    anything "light" >>> Pink, Green, Orange, Yellow, soft Blues ...
    all "wash out" and are almost IMPOSSIBLE to read!!

    Help the Handicapped!! >>> Write BLACK!!

    Oh man, YES! I can not read the ones where people use light text. To make matters worse, they often use bold, which is supposedly to make it more legible but it makes it a big fat blurb of color that I can't read.

    And the centered thing? Drives me batty! English is a left justified language. Hebrew is right justified. Centeing is used to emphasis, like a poem, a quote, a sales ad, memo, etc. Not for daily use.

    Amazing! I thought I was the only one having trouble with some of the colors, centered threads. It is nice to know it is not only me. And yes I will skip the ones with yellow or bright pink - just too hard on they eyes. And I think someone used like a silver (or so it looked to me) and it to was hard to read. I don't mind colors but please use the darker ones for those of us with eye problems.
