experimenting with the style on web. trying to integrate 3D space in a fairly 2D view.

also toying with a theme customizer / accessibility panel. need a giant thick font? do it.

really torn between doing a high contrast "web-view" content area for legibility, or keep it as native as possible (and legible hopefully)

@whoisryosuke One thing I’ve noticed working on 3D stuff: in a real 3D environment like that your head is always moving, creating parallax between the webview and the out-of-focus background. That parallax adds contrast. So if the background stays still, you need to add more additional contrast to the webview. But if it’s in motion somehow, you need less.

@jonikorpi that’s an interesting observation. I’ll experiment more with the BG blur/depth. I’ve been playing with using an actual HDR to move the camera around to simulate movement - helps a bit when done right. But contrast is a big issue I’ve been trying to resolve in general for sure.
