    Thank goodness! I was about ready to bail out, I'll change it and stay a while.

    Honestly, if possible I would just make that the default style. The current default style is really pretty terrible, at least on my screen. The lack of contrast between colors makes it confusing and really difficult to tell where one post stops and another starts. I could see it turning people away from the forum if they don't come across this particular thread.
