i've said it before and i'll say it again, choosing readable fonts and ensuring proper contrast is accessibility 101. i find it really annoying when i, an able-sighted person, find hard to read text on a poster or a piece of text because the designer thought it'd be a good idea to put text-colored spots on the background or use an atrocious font. i cant expect someone with dyslexia or with impaired sight to be able to decipher stuff i cant even make sense of.
especially if this is about a queer friendly or punk context. we still fail to think about the disabled.

@hazel My pet peeve is tiny text. I'm pushing fifty and wearing glasses. You wouldn't believe on how many websites I have to press Ctrl-+ repeatedly. And at least in a browser I can do that.
