I've got my hands full responding to the comments on my blog, so time's at a premium. Fair play to you though.

On their monitor the site may look great so they may not know it's hard to read. @Rob O. - Same with me. It's a great way to find new blogs to read! @David - that is what I used to do too, but once I thought that maybe it was akin to just walking past someone with tp hanging from their skirt, I figured an email was the least I could do.

I've come across many of my regularly-visited sites and/or subscibed feeds this way. I often click on links to commenters’ home pages & the RSS feeds option in the post footer on some forums.

I simply leave, and fast. It's one of my biggest peeves when it comes to reading online. Looking at a monitor is enough of an eye-strain without having to squint to read tiny text, or text that isn't contrasted enough against the background. Dark text on a white background is always best, just like you have here, Sara. ;) In response to the third question, what do you do when you can’t read the text? I simply leave, and fast.
