Signs are hard to read

The bug

Signs are hard to read now, especially with color.

The snapshot before was perfect as the signs were bright and easily readable. I know people were complaining about it being too bright but this snapshot changed them drastically.

The screenshot I attached is a sign with a white dye. It looks dark grey though and I can't read it after moving back three blocks.

The text colors were indeed much better and more readable when they were "too bright". White text should appear white (or at least light grey), as opposed to the medium to dark grey it currently appears.

This is the approach we have decided to take. Whilst yes, I agree that some colour and sign combinations aren't very readable, some people have been using that to their own advantage for ambience and mood setting.

I personally believe the neon-like text would be better as a different type of sign, or glowstone ink or something crazy - a future idea, not now 🙂

Well, that's unfortunate. As it stands, this makes spruce signs useless, as neither black nor white text is presently legible on them.
