With my daytime hat on (I'm a Senior Web Developer for a University) I'd say the current layout is too busy and too text heavy for black - which is a stylish option for sites wishing to convey a certain vibe, but these sites may be light on real content. If you really want to go black, then a whole new layout will be needed IMO. For reading text, light backgrounds are definitely better.


OK, it's back to dark on light, but to my eyes it's too contrasty, and most hi-fi customers buy products by light on dark websites Cry
Graham, I'll PM you later today . . . .

I prefer the old (new?) white background. It looks more serious. Although the content is the same, the black background appeared more style than substance.

"Life is pain, Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something".  Oops, wrong Rob Reiner film. Actually it was my clever way of diverting attention from what Nigel says two lines later.
