Yeah, posting in a color has just sort of become a habit whenever I post.

I'm not going to change after nearly five years of posting this way.

Not enough bold in this thread.

Cool skin even though it burns my eyes a little.

No one (today)'s telling you to quit doing it. I'm just saying, don't expect your habit to get in the way of Kuno implementing more styles for users to choose from. If someone wants to make a stylesheet that sets the post body background color to your preferred post font color, then that's just too bad for you if it bothers you that people won't be able to read your posts now if they opt to use that stylesheet. (Example: if Kuno were to implement Jaxel-era Board 1 colors and if someone here insisted on colorizing his text as either gray or black. Example 2: if Kuno were to implement the color scheme used on UPNs 2-4 and on the Insane Asylum and if someone here insisted on colorizing his text one of two blue colors.) Granted, those individuals are making a conscious decision to use those stylesheets and you don't really owe them anything to change your own practices; but on the flipside, you guys laying "dibs" to colors is (a) fucking retarded (anyone can use any color they goddamn well please) and (b) your own goddamn fault if and when a popular stylesheet comes along for which the post body color makes reading your posts all but impossible. That's all I'm saying.

For the record, I think we all prefer a black-background post body anyway, self included, so it's not like I'm ragging on you guys personally. I'm just speaking from an armchair philosophical vantage point. "Don't allow your love of posting in a color to cockblock others' love for a particular stylesheet from becoming a reality." That's all I'm saying.

One of the reasons I picked the color I used waaaaaaaay back in the day is because it was fairly compatible with just about every style sheet on Serebii, so.

It's a bit hard to read on this brand-spanking new style, but not impossible. I think I'll use this styleset from now on.

Typing in sprite comic format makes me feel inappropriately awesome.

I never noticed that. Mainly because I find the majority of the style sets on SPPf really awful-looking, and they tend to be really bright jarring colours which don't seem to go well with anything, so I don't tend to change the default one. Which is a shame, because clearly a lot of effort when into 'let's think of as many different themes we can name Style Sets after as possible!'.

I use Dark on Serebii. It's pretty damn awesome.

I heartily agree; colours are so much easier to read on that than on any of the other type-based backgrounds.
