Light or Dark Blog Backgrounds? [POLL RESULTS] - http://www.problogger.net/archive...
WriteonBro, Mitra_s, Mathew A. Koeneker and 47 other people liked this
Definitely dark. I gravitate to black... I try other backgrounds but in the end I switch back... Here's my color scheme and layout: www.fossilhuntress.blogspot.com
- Fossil Huntress
Light.
- Joey Gibson
I like darker backgrounds. It's easier on my eyes. :)
- Beau Liening
*takes notes*
- Derrick
Depends on the design, but if readability is important, it should be dark serif text on light background. Reverse type is a bitch for extended reading.
- Tinfoil 2.0
Only 7% don't care? I would have thought 97% don't.
- Will Higgins™
It's web 2.0; why can't people give their users a choice?
- Michael W. May
18% grey :)
- Jan Friman

Never dark, hurts the eyes when switching over to a "regular" site.
- Mike Reynolds
Light!
- AJ Kohn
I generally prefer lighter motifs...they seem "cleaner" and seem to make me feel like the author is more savvy and informed. I don't know why, but it just does for me.
- Carlton Hackett
I like the look of dark but it's not readable for many, so light is my choice.
- Karoli
depends on the blog
- jbrotherlove
Definitely depends on the content. My faboo mama blog will look dumb in black. So do food blogs. Photog blogs in white get ignored by me. Any blog with a orange, green or red background get put on my block list. I prefer black, white, dark blue or dark brown.
- Anika
I prefer dark but I often wonder what my readers prefer. Perhaps I should ask them.
- Jack&Cleo
Your readers, anyone's readers, prefer something easy to read.
- Francine Hardaway
Dark backgrounds with light Text are easier on the eye's and reduce eye strain.
- Aaron Fischer
Dark backgrounds with light text can produce less eye strain for those with slightly less than perfect vision. I am one I those people.
- Dean Clark
I suspect that a lot of (not all) people who complain about light backgrounds have their monitor brightness turned up too high. Contrast should be high, but default brightness of TVs and monitors is too high.
- Tinfoil 2.0
Many, yes, but that's all the more reason for pure white to die a quick and painful death ;)
- Michael W. May
Dark backgrounds with white text are not only less readable for me (and I'm only mildly nearsighted) and give me eye strain. They also can create a sort of strobe effect that triggers migranes. Seriously. I simply won't read a blogspot blog that's done in a reverse light-on-dark scheme.
- nadezhda
I much prefer light text on dark backgrounds. I find it easier on the eyes, and the web is not paper. I don't find it terribly important though thanks to Compiz's Negative plugin that lets me invert colours.
- Tanath
Light Grayish
- Grant Bierman
I guess I like lighter backgrounds on sites.
- Rick Cogley
Some colour which is pleasant to the eyes, not always light or not always dark, but which doesn't hurt your eyes.
- Jayavasanthan J
Very helpful
- Hassan
Light, always
- Giorgio Burlini
Photo blogs look better with a dark background. I use black for my blog.

"Person who pushes you to watch huge quantities of their favorite TV show by offering to lend you the massive DVD boxset. Applies to: Lost, The Wire, Band of Brothers, Battlestar Galactica, West Wing, Heroes , Dexter, Family Guy etc No, I've not seen The Wire. I'm sure the script is superb, but I'm not willing to spend a week watching all 60 episodes, you boxset bully."

Given that "trickle-down economics" lays things out in a very bare way, I wonder how persuasive such analysis has. It would seem that, for much of the G.O.P. constituency: 1) non-pocketbook issues trump pocketbook ones, or 2) short-term pocketbook self-interest is trumped by long-term pocketbook aspirations. Well, anyway...that Freakonomics post nicely illustrates how presentation is so important when it comes to quantitative data...for those who care about accurate analysis of data...or data in general.
