I'm teaching you that different interactions are ok. Unfamiliarity isn't wrong, it's just different. People get used to it, and often times prefer it. Consider my site your education on different contrast ratios. You did, after all, read the post.

- Daniel_Newby 17y agoI didn't read more than a few lines. White on black gives me a full-blown migraine. Many other people also seem to find it literally painful to read, not merely unfamiliar or jarring. Consider me your education on different contrast ratios. ;-)
- orderedlist 17y agoDark text on a light background (on screen) gives some people migraines too. This scheme is my preference, has always been, therefore it's what I make for my own site. Feel free to use your preference for your own.

Consider his comment your education on the usability/readability of different contrast ratios (a pretty well-reasoned post on the topic here: http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200608/light_text_on_dark_background_vs_readability/ http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200608/light_text_on_d... ). And consider my comment your education on how your tone can be annoyingly preachy and smug.
