THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT If possible, can you PLEASE make the standard font BLACK vice pale blue. For anyone over their mid-40's, the lack of contrast makes it nearly impossible to read. If you want to be stylish, use dark blue, just something with a sharper contrast for eyes that aren't so sharp anymore. Just a suggestion because I'd like to be able to read most of the 'letter. Thanks and keep up the good work! ///edit: Sorry, hit the wrong button, meant to add this to the original. I'm using hotmail and firefox just so you know. Thanks and move this up if you can. Cheers |

That looks great. Hopefully your IT guy can get it sorted out. Thanks!

Safari on my Mac turned the background all white and the text a light grey; very hard to read. Even white on black can be hard for older eyes, why not classical black font on white background?
thanks |

Cheers Same as above except I am in my early 40s. I enjoyed the newsletter, but I would enjoy it more if it was not such a strain to read. Thanks. David |
