Default PBW colors

It's been awhile since I've been to teh PBW website, but when I checked it the other day, I was dismayed to find that it's still using that dang bLasted blue color for the text. Even against a black background, it is very hard for me to read. Is there a way to change that text color? I would enjoy visiting that website more if I didn't have so much trouble reading it.

There's a way, but there's no will.

If you are using IE or NN you can use CTRL + A to Select All. This will make the text a kind of off-white and the text-block background a sort of grey, which may be easier for you to read.

Slynky - I did that about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I just thought old Albert was looking a little too old. Out of all of the choices I had to pick from the Avatar Emporium, I chose John Wayne, as he's my favorite actor.

Loser - I'll try that the next time I'm on there. The way it is now, it's just too hard on my ole peepers.

Setting up the website so that people can pick their own colors is possible, but kind of hard.

What would be easier would be just changing the colors accross the board. Does someone have a suggestion that would make it easier to read but work with the current fonts and format and wouldn't turn off as many people as it would please?
