      @designthinkingcomic I would prefer the first option with text easier to read.

        @designthinkingcomic Main problem with B for me is the beam edges cutting directly through single letters, which makes it a pain to read. The switch between black and white for full words I find less problematic than that.

            @designthinkingcomic
            Its a matter of preference:
            Some people prefer reading the text,
            other just look at the picture and skip text.
            If you want people to read the text, choose A.

                Can you reformat the text to fit inside the black sections?

                  @designthinkingcomic option C seems reasonable.

                  otherwise A.

                              @designthinkingcomic If you can do it, have all the text within the light beam and don't spill it over the edges into the dark. Or vice versa (though this wouldn't work as well), all the text in the dark areas to left and right but none in the light.

                                C. It's clearly a spotlight AND it's legible. 😁
