  1. Re:Great Blazing Colors on What Font Color Is Best For Eyes? · · Score: 1

    Yellow on red seems like a very popular high contrast color combination for several years. Ive just ctrl F this page for "Contrasting" and not one single mention! Your answer is YELLOW on BLUE. Blue is the colour you can least focus on, this is a pyhisical and biological restraint, you have less cones in your eyes to recognise shades of blue than any other colour and therefore this is (in the most sensible case of the word) the perfect background colour. Yellow (or orange) depending on what you read, is a very strong, colour and you are far more likely to focus on this colour. It is also the CONTRASTING colour to blue (go figure). Red is physically the most "noticeable" but tests have been done and found that it was too heavy on the eye. Speclulatively, red can cause differecnes in mood patterns where yellow can cause quite the opposite effect. http://freshome.com/2007/04/17/room-color-and-how-it-affects-your-mood. I wish people would stop speculating quite to much. THis is not a list for "My favourite colour is..." der! So please, stop all the "i prefer" and recommendations and answer the question
