A Shot in the Dark

Let me just go on record as saying that I love reading your blogs.

Often, it is the big Zen moment of my day.

But I must say that those of you who choose a black background frustrate me.

I understand why you chose black. Black is cool. Black is slick. According to scuttle-butt, black is the new pink, but I wouldn't plan your new fall wardrobe around that.

Black is the color of rebellion, heavy metal music, funerals, and pirates.

It is an obvious and wonderful absence of color. It hints at a lot, without a promise of anything. It is very coy. I've heard that "once you go black, you never go back", as well as should you ever venture away from this you can alway's come "back in black" and make it alright again.

I guess that what I've come to say is this: I have a hard time finding the mouse pointer on your black background. I have to keep swishing it back and forth until it rests on a photo or a clickable link. Then I have to try and aim the pointer for the comments section by referencing where it was the last time I saw it. It is a shot in the dark.

Have you considered the dots background? It would make my life easier.
