Contrast Issues

I am a massive fan of subtle greys on websites. Huh? What’s that? You are a bigger fan, you say? You’re not.
So that’s why it pains me when I design something, and the developers tell me that it doesn’t have enough contrast, and doesn’t pass the whole W3C accessibility thing. They have a point. But it still hurts. That’s why nowadays, I use the following links to make sure that everything I do has just enough contrast to pass the test. Everyone’s a winner (unless you have sight problems, obviously).
