Feeling a bit confrontational today are we? Call it what you will, but this is "generally accepted" which means exactly what it says. You seem to have confused "this user's opinion" with "what the textbooks say

Notice I said grey, not light grey. Good designers will understand that there has to be a contrast between the background and the foreground. There will always be some who misinterpret the rules. The first site you linked could exist for an

Black on white is a hand-me-down from print that made it's way to web without anyone giving it much thought. It is indeed too great a contrast for back-lit screens. Google results also show the page descriptions using grey on white. Su

That's a perfect example of "Apple thought of everything" except how well that feature is hidden from the user. I mean, who was the first person to discover that? And I'll bet money it was by accident.

Grey text on a white background is generally accepted as easier on the eye/mind when reading sentences, whereas on the header it is not necessary, it's just one word, there is no train of thought to follow there. This would be con

I think user mahouse has confused liberal with European socialism (as opposed to Soviet socialism) and is blaming socialist policies for the death of Sweden. There is some truth in that Scandinavia has gone too far in favor of the world

So it would be possible to produce a mass-produced replacement part targeted at specific models, at least at first, using for example the Leaf drive train and a conversion kit? I assume electric cars have standard axles++.

As another user says, no js. Pure CSS runs in the browser without a get request (other than the CSS file you are already using, obv.) so it eliminates the need for a grid system like Bootstrap, 960gs etc. The 'grid' is there in th
