Yeah, what kind of text do you use on AIM? I'm using Arial, blue color, at size 10 with a white background. I used to have a black background with white bold verdana text, people kept saying they couldn't see my bg though, so it looked all white and they couldn't read it. So I changed recently to this. What do you use? ;-)
white background, black or dark purple font, with the papyrus or georgia style. Usually 10-14 pt font, depending.
