It looks fine to me on a Nexus 4, iPad 3, 2009 Macbook Pro, and two LCD monitors. Is the issue you find the text too low contrast?

#4Not sure if American English has the phrase 'to throw up'* but to my English brain this title conjures up a very amusing but strange image.

Indeed it does.

I don't know if the double meaning was intended, but it works in either case. :)

Yes. Not sure why the original commenter is being down voted, it's an accessibility nightmare as far as sufficient contrast goes. Another "Works fine for me!" from a bunch of young eyed, able bodied 30 somethings ...

"throwing X up" is different from "throwing up X", I think[0].
Compare "I was throwing my lunch up" vs "I was throwing up my lunch". A bit like "black" + "bird" (i.e. a bird with black feathers) vs "blackbird" (i.e. any subspecies of the genus Turdus or some icterid birds) -- "throwing" + "up" (i.e. throwing something in an upwards direction) vs "throwing up" (i.e. expunging the contents of your stomach).

Yes. The text is pale and thin making it more difficult to read than it should be.
