which colors?

I did a science fair project a few years ago on which color combinations were the most readable. I can't find the results, but if I do, I will post them. Let me know what combos you think are great, looks good, and/or are easy on the eyes. I was going to make a poll, but it would be hard to list every possible combination. If everyone could list below a combination that they might use that are easy on the eyes.

mine:

yellow on navy blue

Re: which colors?

White on green works pretty well too. Always seems to show really well without hurting the eyes.

Re: which colors?

Red and white. Even color blind people will see it in black and white which is easy to read.
