From Jacci Howard Bear, your Guide to Desktop Publishing
Red and green may be the traditional Christmas colors but this newsletter is all about gray. And gray isn't all bad.

In addition to the use of gray in desktop publishing, in the Featured Articles section down below I've rounded up an eclectic assortment of gray pages from other About.com Guides. If you're worried about gray hair, have the last name Gray, or want to decorate with gray then read on.


Those Gray Pages
Some gray is not good. But in this case gray can be any color at all. Learn why and how to ditch the gray text.

Those Gray Pictures
We're not talking about the The Picture of Dorian Gray here. Pictures in shades of gray are called grayscale (or greyscale, if you prefer).

Those Gray Colors
The color gray can be almost white or almost black but it's generally considered a formal, conservative, sophisticated color. Do you agree? Explore the meaning and symbolism of the color gray (or grey, charcoal, slate, iron gray, ashen, lead, mousy, gunmetal, silver, dove gray, powder grey, oyster, pearl, taupe, sere, Payne's gray)
