Accessibility notes

  • Ensure #FFD700 (gold) text has sufficient contrast against any background, especially on #FF4500.
  • The reds (#CC0000, #FF4500) provide good contrast on dark greys (#202020, #505050) but can be challenging on each other.
  • Avoid placing #505050 (medium grey) text on #202020 (charcoal) for small text due to insufficient contrast.
  • Use white or light grey text on #CC0000 and #FF4500 for optimal readability, especially for body text.
