If you work with photography, or video production, you need a neutral reference. Coloured backgrounds throw your judgement out, and you start to tweak pictures in the wrong way, to compensate. Whilst it's easy for me to replace a background, it's much harder to do the same with other GUI decorations (being very time-consuming, or impossible to figure out how, or perhaps not being possible, at all). You get a similar problem for astronomy people. Who, typically, want a red screen, and put a coloured filter over their laptop as a simple solution. Unfortunately, that makes some GUI's difficult to use, as two or more, normally, contrasting colours used next to each other both turn black. A grey-shaded theme would work for them too, with their red filter. Or, an entirely pre-tinted theme. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
