Hey, please, it is only my opinion, so please don't jump on my head ...

But black font on a blue backgroud in your profile is pretty tough to read.

michaelOfGeorgia -> RE: Colored profiles (11/22/2006 4:17:42 PM)

i saw one profile that used black font on black background and did it on purpose

Ok, since we're already in the off-topic section...have you SEEN some of the crappy designs on myspace? Arg! WHY do people use heavy backgrounds then half-transparent boxes??

People just really don't think about what people get when they come to a profile, either here or there. I know people try to be creative, but, in the long run, do you want pink squiggly text on a yellow background that would blind an already blind bat or do you want to find a partner? You wouldn't submit a resume on pink, rose scented paper...

K.I.S.S.: Black on white, times new roman or arial, in a size that's 3 or bigger, please.

Agreed.  Readable.  I want readable!

Okay, I really don't care how fancy a person wants to get ... but it should still serve the function!

If they are in colors I can't read I move on.  Their loss.  [:D]

[sm=biggrin.gif]I'm sitting here laughing my behind off, because, well, I'm not even going to share, lets just say when I saw the heading I said, no he didn't go there.  Too too funny stay off the play drugs Rosa.  Think I'm wayyyyy to sensitive today.   

To topic, yes, those colorful backgrouds are most annoying.  One thing you can do if you are hell bent on reading them though is  to highlight the text and everything becomes more readable.




michaelOfGeorgia -> RE: Colored profiles (11/22/2006 4:49:02 PM)

the profile i mentioned (with the black font on black background) is a sub in New Jersey

Hi Rosa,

Yeah, that does help ... especially in Michael's peeve about the SAME color font on the SAME color background!  (oooo mysterious!) lol
