Hi RRRich,

Your route guides are always so helpful and comprehensive. Thank you.

May I make a suggestion? Many of us have seen our vision deteriorate very significantly as we've grown older. Even with glasses I find the combination of font color and background that you used a strain to read. Much better to have more of a contrast between the font and a lighter background. Perhaps others here can say whether my experience is common. If not, keep it as it is. Thanks!

Don, this page tells you how you can turn off styles for various browsers, removing colors and styles. It may not be pretty on some pages but Rich's pages are formatted well enough that this works.

Keep it up, Rich!

Don -- I try and use different colors on each guide. Sorry if this current contrast scheme isn't right for you. I have heard from others on this Forum about previous contrasting colors I have used. I think my web site would be a lot more boring if I used black and white on every page!!! I will try and get better contrasting colors in the future. Thanks for the suggestion--

I like Geoff's advice -- that may work well on my site!

Gentlemen, thank you.

Have been somewhat hypocritical on this. After asking the designer of my blog to make so many changes, haven't had the nerve to ask him to darken the font more than I have, which would drastically change the look of the blog.

Thank you again. Very helpful
