MessageJohn, I agree.  Dark blue on very pale grey are my favorite combo.

  Could well be!

  I don't particularily like black on white either though I like white on
dark gray or black on light gray. Both seem to give me less eye strain than
the stark contrast of white/black. I've got glaucoma so it could be I just
have wierd eyes all the way around :o(

    Psych studies have actually shown that the human eye differentiates
light on dark more easily than dark on light and a dark background (making
up, as it does, most of the screen) should cause less strain to the eyes,
being less bright.

    However, I think that we find reading white-on-black easiest because
we've all been habituated to it from reading books.
