Website Black Backgrounds are BAD!

Authors who have black/dark backgrounds on their websites should really check out this thread:

Many people have trouble reading on sites with black backgrounds, many don't even go to those sites (authors, you are losing traffic), and some pros have stated it is a web design no-no.

Thanks,

  1. Supposedly black backgrounds save electricity. According to Blackle (Black Google):

    "...a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen."
