If you put readable text in the design, people might think the text is important to the design, that the text represents the sort of content you expect to see, or that the text somehow itself needs to be copyedited and updated and critiqued.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<pre>.color-swatches .gray-dark {\r\n    background-color: #333;\r\n}\r\n.color-swatches .gray {\r\n    background-color: #555;\r\n}\r\n.color-swatches .gray-light {\r\n    background-color: #999;\r\n}\r\n.color-swatches .gray-lighter {\r\n    background-color: #eee;\r\n}\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>Praesent mattis, massa quis luctus fermentum, turpis mi volutpat justo, eu volutpat enim diam eget metus.
