It gives me a headache if I look at it for more than a minute. Very close to the color of YUK!

I actually like it - it adds some dimension to the boring black & white that was there before.

No, it makes the text harder to read. That is why we're here really, and not to look at pretty colors.

No feelings either way. Any colors are fine with me.

I'm with doc -- either way is ok with me. These colors are more distinctive and deeper contrast, but yes, they are kinda ugly. So overall on par.

Mine shows up as "pea soup green". This color does not fall in my top 10 list of pleasant colors. Translation: I don't like it.

I like the new color because it's different.

I don't like the colors themselves, but I do find it easier on my eyes for some reason. Maybe the reduced levels of white have something to do with it.

I kind of like it, I guess because it is new. I have the feeling that it will get old fast and the other scheme will rank on top.

Very familiar color to parents of newborns...
I find it a little harder to read, but it's not unworkable.

What we really need to do is change the colors every 23 days or, better, on a random schedule, without notice, and see if anyone comments. My guess: Most of us won't even notice.
