I feel like I'm nagging here and I'm probably the only one (I'm a bit colourblind) but I'm gonna ask anyway because I'd like to read your stories... could you perhaps use black and white for your pieces of text..? I can't read most of it

You're not nagging, I can't read 'em either. My eyes aren't the greatest.

Interesting round about way of telling someone they're not a great singer...
One suggestion for the text (as it's color coded to the speaker) is to give it all 'chat bubbles', would probably have to experiment a bit but a solid color background makes reading text much much easier. I personally haven't had enough trouble reading it to comment, but if a simple solid color background would fix/help other's reading troubles, I'd hate to see the color coding per speaker thing to disappear (I find it rather handy to figure out who in the world is supposed to be saying what.)

I asked my boyfriend to read it for me but he couldn't read all of it either and he isn't colourblind at all. SpiralPrince - if you can read it yourself your eyes must be amazing
. Using a chat bubble could work but would be a bit work intensive if you're not sure how. Just using a colour with more contrast is good enough for me ^^

I'm horrifically lazy and just put all my text under the blank photographs.

White text outlined in black can be read on ANY COLOR background! Convenient link:

That said, I didn't have too much trouble reading most of it, and I enjoyed the photostory.
