Hi Mr S,
Sorry to say that, with the black background I find it very difficult to read most of the site. {:-{  Otherwise very interesting (I think). :((

I had no problem reading it , However I can see the point as the general text is light grey, I would have thought that White text would may have been better used in the darker box's..  I do like the Orange text ..

NIce site,, :-))

Great web site though I have to agree it would have been better if the text had been white.
I like many people am colour blind and do like text and backgrounds to contrast. Red, green, orange, grey etc. on a black background do not really work for me.

Thanks you guys for the great advice, I have now over written the style sheet. It’s defiantly lighter, white text was too much, your options please. :-))  www.hullmodelboatgroup.co.uk
