I'm a developer and I created a page with some photos with names on them. I'm not sure what would be the ideal color to visibly display them. I tried Blue and White. Attaching the screenshots of the same.

Can someone please suggest to me what could be the best color to be used for text to display sharp? Any other suggestions like adding a background or adding opacity are also welcome.

Thanks

  • Use white but with black outline or shadow (in CSS something like text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000) Feb 21, 2022 at 12:00

  • Font-weight: bold or extra-bold
  • Color: any color at maximum saturation or white
  • Black outline to the text as explained here.

I don't think this is the best solution. given the placement of the text, there will never be an ideal colour. Any colour picked has a likelihood of being lost in the details on the drivers jumpsuit.

you should probably look for other solutions

  • Change the placement of the text.
  • if the requirements align, the name can appear only on hover
  • Have a background behind the text to make sure its clear. it could be semi transparent
