It's a very... minimalist? theme. Highly legible. Maybe a tiny splash of color somewhere might be nice?

I vastly preferred the previous incarnation. It looked far and far nicer. Maybe you could provide this "legible" one as an alternate stylesheet (accessible through view -> page style, with maybe a switch link somewhere for better discoverability)?

boring to look at. but readable. needs some personality.

I also preferred the previous theme. Some colour would be nice around the edges. Perhaps there could be some sort of border around the posts while keeping the body black-on-white.

I always prefer white text on a black background. To me, white-on-black is more readable and easier on the eyes.
I agree with you that this theme is a little washed out looking.

ironically, i read almost all of your posts directly in google reader, so i never get to see your cool page layouts!

It's interesting how "off" the proportions seem with the b/w reversal; the individual posts, not so much as the front page.
I do find it slightly more readable though I can't say I was suffering before. Perhaps you could include the old stylesheet so that we could switch between them to compare, or open them side by side in tabs to compare.

When you redo it, you should consider a serif font for the text blocks, because it makes it more easily readable.

I am the least tech oriented of anyone who enjoys reading your blog, but for it is worth, I preferred the previous version. It was pleasant to the eye, and very 'readable', even for a 55 yo with glasses!

K.I.S.S. i think you have that w/ this iteration. fred wenzel's suggestion of a serif font would increase readability a bit. i like the open space.
