Yes, back in the days when sites used shitty colour schemes and selecting it made that better. Haven't felt the need in a long time though. I do sometimes up the font size on a page though.

You'll notice that the theme on my page has...odd colour schemes. That's because I find black on white hard to read. Lowering the contrast makes it much easier for me. Failing that, white on blue is better than black on white for me.

The one I can't stand is white on black - gives me lines in front of my eyes every time :(

I have exactly the kind of visual impairment this sort of thing helps with.

Sometimes, but not on lj, where I read everything in my own style.

But generally only when scrolling a long page of text so I keep track of where I'd got to.

Yes, but only when the text is hard to read / the formatting is crap.

*visions of old Geocities pages with dark blue font on back / starry background, animated gifs and background music running through my mind* Ah, the early '90s... I had a page on RodeoDrive, but I never ever made style errors like that. :D
