I don't have an AO3 account, but I'd like to have one.

Amen to the first one! actually, just darker text on lighter background would be fine, as long as the background is not something like neon green.

I've always wondered why the PDF format is encouraged? PDF is a paper-based format, really only useful if you're going to print it out. I've found them unwieldy and difficult to read on a computer screen or electronic reading device. I only ever download EPUBs, since that is an open source format that works a lot like HTML and allows readers to easily change font family and/or size to better suit their needs. If an EPUB isn't available, an HTML document is still a better choice (though you can't really embed images in a simple HTML file like you can an EPUB). Both can easily be converted to other formats (especially if you use the calibre ebook library) whereas PDFs look terrible upon conversion.

Sorry, sorry! This really isn't the place for me to debate this, lol. Especially since I have a browser plugin that allows me to add any LJ entry I want to an EPUB.

Just ignore me. I love you all. ♥

(If anyone wants an epub version with embedded images, I can help. I make them all the time.)

I love you.
