So late last night, I changed the background color to black (#000000) for the following elements:
- body;
- # header;
- # title; and
- # title H1.
I wanted to BALANCE out the background color to white (#FFFFFF) for the following elements:
- # wrapper;
- # content;
- # sidebar; and
- # a: hover.
- input, textarea, select.
And of course, the shades of black and white combined together forms gray colors for the following elements:
- hr (#AAAAAA);
- borders (#999999); and
- # sidebar H2 (#CCCCCC).
The monotone shades of gray for both body, content and sidebar looked all washed out and boring. With the black color for the body contrasting the white content and sidebar, it gives the appearance of boldness. The blue colors for the font and the header image of clouds above break up the monotony of reading my blog.
