It looks fine here, but I guess results will differ depending on your
the brightness settings of your monitor, etc.

Playing around with some different colors, #ffff99 is a more marked
improvement than #ffff88 here.  It's also not as bright as #ffffbb.
Could that work?

Otherwise, #ffff88 is also an okay choice.
