Probably we need a new asset

Hello, I can reproduce this issue. 
Foreground:#8A8A8A
Background:#FAFAFA

The contrast ratio is: 3.3:1

Thanks,

Laura

Please see this screenshot to evaluate the contrast: https://screenshot.googleplex.com/2iecrkFeus7.png

Marc, will this also apply to the local ntp?

Yup, this still applies to the local NTP. (This is actually part of the shared code.)
Should be easy to change once UX and a11y folks agree on a color.
Friendly ping - where does this work stand? Hwi, should we talk about colors here?

Contrast measured in c#5 should resolve since it's over 3:1.

If we want to get the contrast ratio up to 4.5, we need to pick a different color for the foreground or background. Picking that color is the remaining work so this should be assigned to hwi@ for now I think.

Ping! Does anything need to be done here? Comment 10 seems to say that we're already okay. If not, please specify the desired color for the "x".

Comment 13 by treib@chromium.org, Dec 13 2017

Ping again! Does anything still need to be done here?

Setting to p2 since this was found during our assessment

Per comments 10/12 I'm closing this as fixed. Please reopen if there's anything left to be done here.
