wow that got to be a record, i wondered how long it would take for someone to complain. It amazes me how people only think from their own point of view, and completely miss the fact the colour sceme is the most thought about part of any application.

i wonder how many people email microsoft to complain about the colour of there site ???

Wow! That is not fair. Most forums have a option to choose layout. And at the time I wrote my post, the only option was CA black.

Edit; spelling

There is an option in the user control panel that currently has another option - now (was not an option when I started this reply).

Just like the AVSforum default, some will love it, some will hate it, no one will be indifferent.

Sorry Cerberus, but why do some replies often have to include an argumentative tone? I know you've been around for a long time (thanks for all the help, I mean it) and you've probably seen most questions (both stupid and valid) but how about a friendly tone when in doubt? It was an honest question and didn't seem invalid in the end...

Cheers,
Zek

LOL! You Brits and your Irish relatives do have to roughest humor I know of. When I was backpacking in Asia I never knew if you guys were joking or trying to pick a fight on the spot. :)

Well I'm British and I thought it was quite harsh. I didn't like the black either - found it quite hard to read. Glad to see we can choose.
