Thanks Linda, I tried that.
I �ve enlarged the fonts and that seems to help.

Thanks to apayala and her excellent directions, I am now the proud owner of a white background. No more grey/gray for me.
Thank you,

How did you do that?
BTW, I don�t know if mine is light grey or white - I think it�s off-white. Was yours dark grey or light grey? Can we change it to another more brighter colour? I need some colour in my day today. |

To change background colour of the webpage:
Being on ESL Printables page, open �Internet tools� or �Internet options�, I am not sure how to translate computing vocabulary, sorry.
A new little window will open, with many tabs, choose the one called �general�, it has at the bottom 4 options: colours, languages, fonts and accessibility.
Click on �colours�. A new more little window opens. It has 2 little boxes you can tick.
One of them says: �use colour of movement� or something like this, again I am not sure how to translate it.
The other one says: �use colours from windows� and there appear the following options: text, background, visited, not visited and movement, each one with one colour square next to the option.
Now, you have to untick �use colours from windows� in order to be able to click on the square option you want, in this case, you will click on the square background, then a new window with a pannel of colours will appear and you click on the colour you want the background and then accept, you will go back to the former window where you will make sure that you have ticked the �use colour of movement� box, and then you will accept again and you will go back to the former window (the one with the 4 options: colours, languages, fonts and accesibility) and accept for the last time and that is it!. Your background will be in the colour you have chosen.
So, the important thing is:
�Use colours from windows� box, has to be not selected to be able to click on the background colour option.
�Use colour of movement� has to be selected once you have already chosen the background colour and before clicking accept to go back to the former window.
Another important thing: it is not possible to change �google� page background, don�t try it as it is fixed in white and there is no option to change it.
