Re: [LAU] What's this? A fancy website?

Regarding to what's looking good, design is a matter of taste, so people should be free to ignore even basic rules for design, but regarding to accessibility it would be nice, if you would take care about a minimum of rules. How about an easy to see button on top of the websites, to switch to another color theme? Perhaps not everybody is aware hat e.g. Firefox does provide View > Page Style > No Style to toggle between the page's style and no page style, unfortunately this also could have impact to the order of the content. For e.g. Firefox it's possible to set the preferences, to use custom colours, then the order of the content isn't touched, but it's not possible to toggle between the original color themes and the custom color theme on the quick. I'm aware that many people today use dark themes for their desktops and that they don't care, if for some apps, some font colours even have _exactly_ the same colour as the background, so minimal contrast for them might be already an improvement, but to make text readable, contrast should be a little bit harder than dark grey on nearly or full black. OT: For different lighting conditions I would like to have a dark and light theme for Xfce, it's easy to get a usable light theme, but until now I haven't seen one dark theme that is ok. They all provide equal colours for background and fonts for some areas. 2 Cents, Ralf
