All sites I visit, even DU are now 100% black text only on white bg. And all text now appears 120 percent orig. size (there are more size options) Also, all bg pictures that appear behind text are eliminated. Very enjoyable browsing experience. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592

1. Cool, but that's another addon that's been...
a basic feature of Opera for years.

I use Firefox for some things and have nothing against it, but I still can't understand how it's so popular when Opera has been out much longer and was the first to build in so many features the others finaly got around to admitting people might like.

4. Oops. Now that I reread your OP, I'm not sure...
Opera can eliminate background pix. It can be told what screen colors to use, though.

What I use all the time are fit to window button, the little sizing thingy on the bottom, and the + and - keys to change the size of text, and sometimes graphics.

3. Iuse this add-on for the PC connected to my TV.
It makes a huge difference as even on a 42" TV a page like DU can be a challenge to read at 1920 X 1080 from across the living room.
