(warning: white text on black background).

This class of problems has a general solution: the Readability Bookmarklet. It adjusts the colors, font size, margins, and so on, with the press of a button. It's useful all over the place.

Hey, I hadn't even thought of making a bookmarklet for general readability. Off to code my own - maybe I can even make this website look halfway decent.

On vanilla Firefox you can just go to the View Menu, select Page Style, and choose the "No Style" option.

Well "No Style" doesn't work well on Less Wrong since the site is built badly, and anyway I use Google Chrome which sadly doesn't have that functionality yet.

Readability is also a Firefox Add-On, for those who prefer to deal with it on that basis.

Though, personally, I agree with Maddox; light text on dark backgrounds is awesome!

If you prefer light text on dark backgrounds, Readability has a style for that, called "inverse". It's pretty nice. Easy on the eyes.
