That was exactly what was running through my mind. I'd toyed with using
lighter shades (blue, pale pink, lavender) with the black font... but as I
said, I hadn't totally convinced myself. I did "trial" pages.... so once
done, I can address it on the board and see if anyone has had sight issues
and adjust it accordingly.

The only caution would be to take into consideration those folks who are
color blind. Certain colors and color combinations will make the page
appear
blank in some cases. A reason I stick to basic black and white.
Also I don't use anything less than size 10 font (an preferably size 12)
for
ease of reading for us older folk with bifocals and people who are
seeing
impaired.
