Even years later, friends and family joked about the release of Antoine Fuqua's movie, about how nice it was of them to produce a major motion picture just for me (I did enjoy that movie—and I also completely understand why it didn't do so well anywhere else). While I'm on the topic, I'll point to the websites of colleagues I often corresponded with in those days: Robert Vermaat and David Nash Ford. I had, at the time, considered it a matter of purely academic interest, but revisiting it now, I can see the parallels to our own situation make my former interest much more prurient.8 [...] […] I still remember the first book I read about King Arthur, and not long after, Warriors of Arthur, my first introduction to the notion of an “historical King Arthur,” an obsession that gripped me for ten years, leading me to a study of Late Antiquity and the collapse of the Roman Empire (I retain several full book shelves on the topic), flowering in the now-defunct Saxon Shore (my first website).

I think either you have to pick all the colours as webdesigner yourself (force your colours) or you have to choose no colours and let the browser choose. I guess you agree, it's just that not many people don't have the background on white, so you probably just didn't notice.
