Also light green. One of the things I learned while in Teacher College, was to grade papers using lime green or light green ink, so that the students couldn't sneak a look at each others scores without starying at the page to see the ink. Smile. I remembered that, as I hated it when people would see my grade before I did. Shelley L.

Occasionally, but very rarely, words or part of text in books is colored, especially, of course, in children's books where they're teaching colors, but it wouldn't occur to me to try to use color because I didn't think it wold be translated by bookshare. It is hard to read, sometimes, even for a sighted person--and I hate when I'm watching a foreign film and the subtitles are light on a white background. Speaking of colors used in emails though, as we were before with Sue's experiment, light blue, as was used in one of these posts, is also a little difficult to read, though not as bad as yellow. Dark or Royal blue is fine. smile G.Cindy WISH LIST (called Requested Additions To The Bookshare Collection)is available at http://people.delphiforums.com/jamiecalton/Book_Requests.htm http://www.friendsofbookshare.org/ http://studentpages.alma.edu/~07jmyate/book_requests.htm www.jbrownell.com for miscellaneous and useful threads ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
