Beware of gradients

• They can look bad when they are projected.

8
The type of font is also important

• This is a font called Times New Roman. It has
  little curves at the ends of each letter. It is a
  serif font. When using a computer, the image is
  created by pixels. These little curves make the
  pixilated image hard to read.
• This is a font called Ariel. It is the same size
  as the font above but it is a sans serif font
  (without the little curves). Notice how much
  easier it is to read.
