Colour• Don’t use similar colours for the text and background.
• Don’t use too many different colours either!
• Don’t use lots of different types of fonts.
•AND be consistent with the size of text.
• Don’t use too many features either
Don’t put too much writing in blocks. It can be really, really boring for people to read lots and lots of uninteresting text about nothing in particular and there isn’t really any point in writing about nothing and making someone read it and making them bored of reading it, is there? So don’t do it, at all, ever!
