I wanted to try to submit some links to this site, but decided to pass on this one because of FOUR major problems with their study: 1) although the study excluded color-blind people from participating (???), they mislead people into thinking it's a great color scheme for the general population 2) they said the color combinations differ for common fonts besides Arial, so it's not a good rule of thumb 3) computer LCD monitors could very well make green text on a yellow background very hard to read even for people with normal vision 4) The effects of reading very long pieces of text were not tested Reasons #1 or #3 alone means I would not use that color combination without further testing with color-blind people as well as on older LCD screens. (Note, the study is down at the moment so I can't double-check what I said.) |
