Hi all, I would just like to thank all those who have shared their experiences. There has been some very interesting feedback that has been mentioned and we are hoping to conduct a few tests and see how users feel with the colour scheme. I've used the colour contrast analyser before, and it does help a lot (although it does say and red and white are acceptable - but that's where automated tools can sometimes cause false positives).
