Aesthetic improvements[edit]

First off, nice work on the graph. I'm sure it took a lot of work and time to create. That being said, here are some suggested improvements, mostly for the BMI labels across the top.

  1. Add a space after "<" for "BMI <18.5".
  2. Shorten "Normal range" to "Normal" so doesn't touch "Overweight".
  3. Add a space after "BMI" for "BMI18.5-25".
  4. Center "Normal", "Overweight", and their BMIs over their background color; move text up some for more space around text in relation to background color.
  5. Change incorrect ">" to correct "≥" and add a space after for "BMI >30".
  6. Use en dash "–" instead of hyphen "-".
  7. Lighten grid color so easier to read overlayed label text.
  8. Around the four sides of the grid, standardize the amount of space between labels, values, and grid; add more space between "Height [meters]" values and grid so doesn't touch.
  9. Shorten "Height [feet and inches]" label to "Height [feet, inches]".
