I'm glad the majority prefer the gray background--I do too. Now, the other question I have is about the accent color I want to use with the gray color scheme. I heard some in the last poll thought the purple on gray was hard to read as well. So, I've set up a new poll (to the left--->) allowing you to choose, which color of the options you think goes best with a gray background. Something to remember is that this accent color will only be used for links and the sidebar text color.
In order to help make your decision; I'm going to highlight the choices in this post, so you can see what the look would be against the gray background. First is blue, which is the color I am using right now for the sidebar text and link texts in the posts.
Next is purple, which I had started out with yesterday but some thought it was hard to read--any other opinions on purple?
Finally we have red, which I know is vibrant but it looks softer I think with the gray background. I hope that one of these three colors will win a majority, so that I can settle on a new design by the end of this week. Thank-you for your participation. It really value what my readers think.
And, again, if you want to leave a comment after taking the poll please feel free to do so in the comment section of this post.
