[color=gold] The most unreadable font color [/color]

(very random topic)Gold seems to be the most unreadable besides transparent- and that one shade of gray that makes it invisible. If anyone can find a more unreadable one then please show me (it cant be invisible)

Re: [color=gold] The most unreadable font color [/color]

How about this
It's more unreadable if you tilt your screen forward [laptop, not regular computer  roll ]

If you tilt it backward, it's more readable.

Re: [color=gold] The most unreadable font color [/color]

I find that yellow is REALLY hard to read...despite being a pretty good contrast.  I wonder why that is?

That's pretty interesting.  There's probably some biological explanation.  I wonder if it varies from person to person?  Maybe we need a poll?

Because it's a bright color upon a bright color  wink

Also, do you think you could add a way to color the background of a forum post?  Like [bgcolor=black]

Then it would turn the background of this post (But not the quote) Black?

I actually think it would just do the background behind the text.
