can it be implemented? lengthy text is hard to read on the monitor in these colors. can we have a printer friendly option that removes avatars and signatures and just gives us the content?

Print entire thread
My vision makes it difficult for me to join a lengthy thread--by personal policy I will not join a thread unless I read all prior posts. The ability to print a 200-post thread would make this catch-up reading much easier to do.

Caution, word sometimes locks up when you paste from the web, especially (it seems to me) if there are pictures involved.
You may want to paste into notepad (or equal) but you will lose quote boxes (and all pictures) in the process). It will, however be black on white.
Once in black on white, you may not need to print it to read (thus saving a tree or two)
{abe} there was a time when you could alter the background color on a thread with the html code. this has been blocked {/abe}
