Thanks for these examples, Cesy, they really helped me to figure out where to start.

Where should I make a feature request for the skins? I see you have a limited range of fonts allowed, I'm not sure why (for private skins, should it matter at all?) but there's a font specifically designed for low-vision use that I use myself it's called APHont and is available free for low-vision users. It's not by default installed on either PC or Mac (although I think it should be!) but it's WAY easier to read than other sans-serif fonts for me as all the hard-to-see bits are exaggerated. Info is here: http://www.aph.org/products/aphont.html

So I'd like to have APHont added to the range of available fonts - if I put it in a font family it'll just get skipped if the person doesn't have it so nobody gets hurt.

Am having fun with this - I'll apply to make my own low-vision-friendly AO3 skin made public when I'm done with it :)
