Vision Impairment

One thing which we should all be thinking about when we post on our weblogs is how easy will it be for other people to read what we write.

If, for example, we put the entire post in Bold or Italics or even put some of it in a different colour then are we making it harder for others to read.

Therefore I suggest the following;
  • Stick to the Normal or Large font size setting in Blogger
  • Only use BOLD when you have too
  • Never use italics or different colours for words
  • Stick to the fonts that are plain and easy to read, arial being a good example
  • Seperate paragraphs with a blank line
If anyone requires any further information on this then please contact me (Gareth), or better still do some research on 'Clear Type' and Accessable webpages (BOBBY Approved - just like the SCVS Website). - Example of Large Size in Blogger
