Please save me from Grey

Greybw

It doesn't take me long in any city to find a hot dog stand.  I found this one in New Orleans on the corner of Canal street and some other street that I don't remember the name of but could find again if I needed a hot dog.

Grey is an OK color but not for everything.  It is the favorite color of WordPress theme developers.  They are fond of using grey on grey.  Sometimes they make light grey boxes with white writing in them to mix it up a little.  Clearly WordPress themes are not designed with the reader in mind.  Grey on grey isn't as easy to read as good old black and white or even white and black.

The first thing I do with any theme is take the grey out. It can take hours to find all of the grey and make it go away.  I do this for my readers. I do it for myself. I do it in the morning.  I do it at night. It looks like grey is here to stay but not on my sites because I make it go away. #000000 and #ffffff not #AEADB1 and #282827.  Be a rebel and just say no to grey.

There now I feel better. Have a great day and stay away from grey.
