Site Update: Inverse Friday

By Glenn Fleishman

Don’t check your monitors, wireless readers; we’ve gone all inverse: After six years of something close to the same color scheme on Wi-Fi Networking News (and the family of related sites), I have finally acceded to two realities. First, many readers—dozens not thousands—over the years have begged me to produce a less-dark design to improve legibility. For a while, I toyed with the ability to choose your own color scheme, or some such. But that was complex and wishy-washy. What convinced me to change to a dark-on-pale approach was (second reality) that virtually all readable news sites and blogs on the Web choose a white or off-white background with dark type. There’s a reason for that.

The switch has been flipped! Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Update: That’s inverse, not perverse. If you’re not seeing the new dark-on-light design, try emptying the cache of your browser, or hitting force reload (Alt or Option plus the Reload button in most browsers) to bring in the new styles and images.
