In Response To: A CONTEST of sorts! Design a new template page (Ernie)

Listen, kid: better learn how to differentiate between good and bad criticisms, and how to deal with both kinds.

The MFFA doesn't need to be redesigned. The current design is fine, it only need to be polished. When I said it's hard on the eye, I mean it's difficult to read because:

1. There isn't enough contrast between the base colors (black for background, blue for headings and bold text, and some kind of gray for text.)

and

2. The text in the stories have no margins; it goes from one extreme of the window to the other. This make it uncomfortable when jumping between lines. Resizing the window is a quick, but unwelcome fix.

My suggestions:

1. Use high-contrast colors all over the site, not only on the stories. Which colors to use is up to you.

2. Give the text margins. Be gentle on the reader's eyes. Again, it's up to you how long should be the margins.

Last but not least:

I've posted the story with the style I was talking about over the M1A1 site. That decision don't have anything to do with the look and feel of the MMFA.
