That made me want to see if the contrast is actually as good as it seems. I came across this, which was interesting reading. :)

Just got a spam ad for an AI blog creation tool.  You just give it a few keywords and it will write blog posts for you.

As if there aren't enough bot-generated junk sites already . . .

Yeah, having gone through the accessibility work for my website, I've gain a new appreciation of the importance of the highest possible contrast.

Sounds like a good change, then. Good luck!

Well, this is a new spam.

Would have been better if they hadn't reversed first and last names.  So, if your name was Johnny A. Smith, it opened by saying, "Hi, Smith!"

It purports to be a medical report for my relative, "B. Johnny A."

I can view his discharge summary by clicking a link.  Of course, I'm not clicking that link.

But, it's like, well, first they screwed up by mixing up first and last names.  Second, it would be a violation of privacy rights to send me someone else's medical report.

Then it gives me "your" medical test number.  So, who had the test?  Me or the supposed relative?

Then I should not delay getting medical assistance for my family.  So, we're back to my supposed relative again?

So many screw-ups in one spam message.

Glare can be remedied to varying degrees with lighting.

But for readers whose eyes need the higher contrast of white and black, lighting is not going to resolve that.

Personally, I like white better. I guess I haven't noticed the glare.

As to republishing the last book, I don't think you need to unless you want to. That doesn't seem like the kind of thing that will produce widespread reader unrest.

Thank you for sharing the pictures. I like the white a little better. But If I picked up a book I wanted to read, it wouldn't make any difference to me. Doesn't seem worth the trouble to change it.

This.

I use white for nonfiction and books with color photos.  Otherwise, I use cream. Same...glare.

I like the look of white best for contrast, but after reading under a bright light for a bit, cream always wins out for me. The white usually has too much glare.
