The client requested an elegant black theme with gold accents.  As some of you may know, I am not a fan of black websites, mainly because of readability issues.  So, the challenge here was to create a black site that all users would be able to use without struggling.

My solution, where reading text is important, was to use a dark grey background behind the text areas with a near-white text and a dark CSS text shadow.  The CSS text-shadow works like an outline that sharpens the edges of the text against the grey so the letters are crisp and clear.

The gold was accomplished with a shiny gradient for all buttons and menu tabs.  The title uses an “old world” font with a matte gold gradient style giving it a sophisticated metal effect.

Some other noteworthy features are:

• Home page statistics were removed from the menu and added to the top three info boxes on the home page.
• All member account area icons were redone to coordinate with the theme.
• The footer stretches the full width of the page.
