He also confuses, maybe conflates would be better, art and design. For example, his statement that black over-powers everything else only applies to black masses - thin black borders or underlining is the best way to focus attention on critical points on a web page without being distracting the way bright colors can be.
- ricardobeat 14y agoThose thin borders and underline also benefit from not black. #333 is usually the darkest you should go for text and these features.
- dredmorbius 14y agoI routinely find myself hand-tweaking CSS on sites I visit for #333, replacing it with black. Dual monitors, office, lots of ambient daylight, and occasional sun glare. Drive me freaking nuts. Black text on a very slightly off-white background: not so bad.
