I really want to check this out, but my eyes hurt reading the page because the contrast of gray on black is so low. A vision-impaired person might not be able to read it at all. Please consider using this tool to pick a text color that provides sufficient contrast: https://snook.ca/technical/colour_contrast/colour.html#fg=909090,bg=202020 https://snook.ca/technical/colour_contrast/colour.html#fg=90...
- plopz 7y agoChrome inspector shows the contrast as 5.07 which seems to pass the recommended AA 4.5 threshold. I tried fiddling with the colors in the inspector, if you increase the contrast you start to get something I would describe as burn-in, after images in vision of the lines of text. Very uncomfortable, I actually prefer it with lower contrast.
- masukomi 7y agoSomehow i doubt it's testing the grey on black when it is getting that number. Or if it is, it's probably being thrown off in averaging out the high contrast of the orange on black.
- masukomi 7y agoFirefox's accessibility tool doesn't even see most of the text when making its calculation.
- manjana 7y agoGood advice - didn't cross my mind at all. I'm working on some theming and the contrast should be suited for vision-impaired or have an option for this, in about a week or so.
- agwa 7y agoLooks way better with the new text color. Thanks!
