Links: Difference between revisions

Many blog sites or themes have a default color for links and hypertext. Blue is no longer the only option, but sometimes customization is impossible within a theme. However, if customization is possible, be sure to choose a color for hypertext that will stand out. Contrast is important so that users can tell which words are or are not links. According to Gary Swift of [http://www.designmatrix.com/index.html DesignMatriX.com], "Choose hyperlink (anchor) colors that contrast against the normal text color, with unvisited links brighter (hotter) than visited links. Within a set of related hypertext documents, use these link colors consistently. For Web sites this generally means the entire site." <ref>Gary Swift</ref>
