You're NOT the ska musician?!?!?! Then explain all the ska you played in crits!

Wait, that is too much text? Oh god, I'm screwed...

William! Not to worry! It's not all about quantity but arrangement and relationship. Your site has plenty of speed bumps to help a viewer navigate the page!

I like it! Maybe add a bg fill to the mode toggle, it overlaps other text on scroll which looks a bit weird

Makes sense! Everything should be over WCAG AA but a little more never hurts especially when the hues are close 💙

Fuck it new website updates just dropped. Lemme know what you think. Very text-driven at the moment! https://chrismurray.co/

specifically the links since theyre blue against blue

Haha thanks! Editing my own words is always the hardest 😆

Thanks! Any specific contrast? (Between levels of type? Between background and text?)

oya sorry i forgot to mention😅 its between bg and text! a figma plugin or https://coolors.co/contrast-checker should be able to help

As someone who, 20 years into my career, gets called out for too much text… wow that’s a lot of text! Edit edit edit! What’s gonna sell hardest? Take the rest out!

Phew, thank you! As someone with such a long career, do you believe people are more willing to read a story or documentation of your process on case studies? Been in this dilemma for a while now 😬
