[HIG] HIG-0.1 color example

[Tommi Komulainen <Tommi Komulainen iki fi>]

Hi,

Being (slightly) red-green colorblind myself, I find the example in

http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/hig-0.1/layout.html#REDUNDANT-COLOR-EXAMPLE

quite baffling.  The first one with black background is *much* easier
for me to read than the second, and I can see the color difference
instantly.¹  On the other hand, at first I thought there were no colors
in the second one.

Generally speaking, I find that colors look better on dark background,
and that dark background hurts my eyes less.

Well, maybe it's just me, I suppose you've had a wider test audience :)


HTH & HAND


1. I've never had problems separating red from green when the colors
   are apart, only when they're interleaved.
