Think it's too much to add a small outline where the white font is? it kinda gets blended into the background

She went on to say nobody would be able to read that on a small screen or standing away from there monitor so she took 10 steps backwards and asked me to do the same... I said would reads there emails 10 feet away? And then I emailed this to my iPhone and showed her and she was able to read it but then started a new argument about her age and others her age won't be able to read it. lol.

I pulled up the demographic click ratio and it was young adults at 60 percent lol.

I told her there is no set practices on overall design. If there were everything would look the same.


The argument rose after I gave her this layout for a weekly blast we are doing.
She wants me to turn all the font to script and thinks it would be more impactful. I told her NOBODY WOULD CLICK IT. And it would suck and look ugly.
I went on to say this is why you hired me let me design for you. And let me show you what works.



please no cool story bro crap. I really just want someones opinion
