It is possible to change the color of your text, however this can negatively affect

  • the readability of the text, especially low vision (often older readers) and individuals with colorblindness (1 out of every 12 men and 1 out of every 200 women have a color vision deficiency.)
  • the ability of individuals with no vision to understand what you are tryping to convey by color

Please read Saintapedia:Accessibility#Color before adding color to an Saintapedia article.
