h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

with the yellows and pale greens, the text disappears, and like others size 12 is the smallest I can read.

could you possibly do a chart with black text please?

No. What I'm testing here is which background colours are unreadable with white test.

The idea is, you tell 'em what you can't see. Then we know not to use it.

ah right....

sowwy, too early in the morning here

need more

Gnomon, does that mean you'll rerun this pallette with black text as well?

Text on coloured background is not good for me, but as long as I can stay an alabastard you are very welcomed to do as you see fit in other skins

Elektra, all I'm trying to do here is find out which colours are usable on the Brunel front page. It doesn't use black text on coloured backgrounds, so I see no reason to produce a colour chart with that.

Brunel uses white text on a coloured background, and yellow text on a coloured background. We the Guide Editors get to choose the background colour but nothing else. So we need to find a set of maybe 20 background colours that aren't too hard on the eyes.

OK, thanks for explaining,Gnomon.

I've asked people at Ask to do the test:
