Back in February, I was playing around with the website appearance a bit. Today I happened upon that file again, and I still rather like the look of it.

Any thoughts?
IIRC your problem with the current color scheme was fuzzy contrast on your monitor. A technical issue, similar OTOH to high contrast headaches. AFAIR long ago people preferred the current scheme over presented alternatives, despite the low contrast issue being acknowledged. I assume a trade off for aesthetics. As aesthetics is a matter of personal taste, I've prepared a couple of alternatives with better contrast palette: http://www.dillo.org/test/dillo2.tmp1.html http://www.dillo.org/test/dillo2.tmp2.html I like both over "dillo2.html". I like tmp1 for its lively colors (though "waterish"), and also like tmp2 for its more integrated "airish" palette (a bit "serious" too).
PS I wonder about the anybrowser gif in the sidebar. It screams 1996 to me.
It can be replaced with something better. -- Cheers Jorge.-
