Daniel, the images are so small for several reasons: 1) because large images use bandwidth, and bandwidth costs me money 2) Because they're supposed to show you the windows and areas, and the text is there as an example, and not really intended to be read.

It might be so that the "pink" text is the red texts in the xcode screens. I don't really understand why you have made them so small. Great work with the tutorial Uli.
Comment 5 by marius http://masters-of-the-void.com/book1.htm#comment5 http://masters-of-the-void.com/book1.htm#comment5 HI Uli,

hab gerade dein Tut überflogen und was mir besonders auffällt, das sich der weisse Text auf dem schwarzen Background shcwer anschauen lässt. Bei mir verschwimmen die Absätze bei nicht 100%igem Hinsehen zu weissen Blöcken. Die Comments z.B. auf grauem Hintergrund sind schon angenehmer aber irgendwie auch noch nicht das Optimum.

Vielleicht gehts nur mir so, ka. wollts nur mal anmerken.

Ansonsten ist es aber eine klasse Arbeit und ich finds cool, daß Du Sie den Leuten zur Verfügung stellst!

Gruß,
marius

If you have trouble with white text on a black background, I suggest turning on the screen inversion shortcut in the Accessibility prefpane. Then you can just hit cmd+opt+shift+8 whenever you want to read this page.
Comment 3 by William Scott http://masters-of-the-void.com/book1.htm#comment3 http://masters-of-the-void.com/book1.htm#comment3 The white text on black background does give the illusion of being pale pink. There is something about the anti-aliasing of this in Safari that does make it hard to read. I just turned 45, and don't wear glasses, FWIW.

I use terminals and an editor (TextMate) with a black background and white font, but find it renders better when the anti-aliasing is turned off.

Edward, there must be something wrong with your screen or browser. There is NO PINK AT ALL on any of my web sites, nor will there ever be. Nor is the background white. Do you perhaps have a custom style sheet set up? Or did you print this and one of your color printer cartridges are empty?

The colors here should be white-on-black text, with a pale prussian blue for the links. While I'm aware that white-on-black is not everyone's cup of tea, it just felt right for this site, and I took great care to maintain high contrast.

That said, there is a plan, eventually, to provide a downloadable/printable version, but that may take a while.
Comment 1 by Edward F. Storm http://masters-of-the-void.com/book1.htm#comment1 http://masters-of-the-void.com/book1.htm#comment1 I'd love to work through your tutorial, but I have a lot of trouble reading it. I'm a little up in years, and
the pale pink type on a white background is almost impossible. And it's a struggle to read the insets
which contain program text and Xcode stuff. Does your tutorial text exist in a pdf format or something
similar? Thanks for any help you can offer.
