Hi,

There is an online tool to compare a site's colors to the
recommendations in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0:

http://www.accesskeys.org/tools/color-contrast.html

It puts in numbers what my eyes have already told me about BoltWire's
default theme. (And adds some big red "fail" buttons to it. :))

I am in the lucky position to sit in a sunny room at the moment. But
my old TFT which is not as bright as today's displays gives me an
uneasy reading experience on boltwire.com.

I know I have said the following before. But I will repeat myself once
more before putting me into silence mode regarding this issue: I
believe boltwire.com would benefit from a sensible skin and navigation
update.

I have mentioned issues like the confusing "linking to the same page
with different link names" and some others. Today, I mentioned
contrast. Tomorrow, I might mention that it is unpleasant to browse to
the contribution pages without using a bookmark. My brain is not that
good at finding a page name in a huge list. And just adding another
link to the side bar is not a (good) solution.

If you want me to make a proposal, send me the field and give me some
time to think and test changes. If the community likes the result,
fine, if not, nobody got injured (hopefully).

Best wishes,
Markus
