    Grey font on white is not polite on the eyes

    Gorgeous looking blog. Pro look. But why do so many great designers use grey text on white?

      I think you have a good point about the text - it could probably stand to be a bit darker - however in some designs I feel like straight black is a bit too much and takes away from the design. Notice the text on this site is not black!
