Hi

I saw a note that the campus webtools had been updated I looked at the previews available on this page: https://builder.toolkit.illinois.edu/. Assuming that it is showing the latest version then I have the following comments.

First, I am totally, or near totally colorblind. I am not sure what color most of the "normal" sized text is on white/light colored background but I am guessing it is not black. The fonts are so thin that the pale color sinks into the glaring background. I often wear specially colored glasses that tend to make all monitor displays monochrome but taking the glasses off shows the issues below to me.

The text "Enroll in a class after you are admitted as a non-degree student.” In the “call to action” elements for white and grey themes is nearly too pale to see. https://builder.toolkit.illinois.edu/prod/call-to-action-preview/index.html

Similar for the text “Animal sciences students…” in the Cards with themes white and grey. The “dark” text on the orange themes is not readable -- my guess is that text is the University blue, PLEASE DO NOT USE ONE OF THE UNIVERSITY COLORS AS TEXT WITH THE OTHER COLOR AS BACKGROUND. https://builder.toolkit.illinois.edu/prod/card-preview/index.html

Similar for the text on the initially white/light clickable cards. This text is slightly easier to read than the Call to Action text. https://builder.toolkit.illinois.edu/prod/clickable-card-preview/index.html

Similar for text in the Image Features. https://builder.toolkit.illinois.edu/prod/image-feature-preview/index.html

Introduction preview give me an access denied page

Same for non-bold text on the Statistics page with light/white themes. https://builder.toolkit.illinois.edu/prod/statistic-preview/index.html
