How to Change the Default Background and Text Colors on Web Pages
Many times it happens that you open a web page and the text and background colour look so messy that you find it really difficult to read the content on the page. Many people prefer to have on static text and background colour for all pages, when it comes to browsing different sites on the internet.
If you want to use custom text and background colours for web pages, then the good news is that you have the option to do so. It is really easy to change the colours, provided that you know the right process.
